US Abruptly Cancels Media Conference After Zelensky Met With Trump's Ukraine Envoy

Looks like Zelensky is down real bad 
Retired US Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg, Trump’s special envoy to Ukraine and Russia, is in Kiev where on Thursday he had an (apparently) brief meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
A scheduled post-meeting news conference has been unexpectedly canceled, though no reason was immediately forthcoming, according to a Ukrainian official, presidential spokesman Serhii Nikiforov. The US side made no comment upon the presser's cancelation.
The Associated Press observes, "When the meeting began, photographers and video journalists were allowed into a room where the two men shook hands before sitting across from each other at a table at the presidential office in Kyiv."
President Trump on Wednesday night continued bashing Ukraine's Zelensky, this time describing that his officials treated Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent "rudely" during his visit to Kiev last week.
Trump further said that Zelensky chose to sleep instead of meeting with the high-ranking American official to discuss the White House proposed mineral rights deal. "Zelensky was sleeping and unavailable to meet him," Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One.

BEND THE KNEE, Z

Z is eating the cheese. He’s about to collect 700B from Europe and keeping the war machine going means he retains endless power and generational treasure. The people be damned.

What do you people expect the head of state to do when his country is invaded by an armed force?
Posted on 2/20/25 at 10:15 am to John Barron
Z is going to go the way of Saddam and Gaddafi, etc.

SMH.... Maybe Zelenski sees the writing on the wall and has just decided to say to hell with it. He's already on a Russian to do list.
Whatever his thought process, he's further pushing himself out of the picture.

When you can't win the war yourself, listen to all options on the table. It isn't that damn hard to understand.

Yeah he ain't living that long. They took out Kaddafi and Saddam and those dudes actually had a brain to go along with their despotism. Zelensky is jimmy kimmel in comparison.

He should come to the table.

Try to figure out a way to end it?
You do know wars can end in a non-military fashion, correct?
Have you ever heard of a treaty?

Time to arrest Z for fraud by swindling . Idiot is too greedy

By giving everything away?
None a single goddamned one of you would settle for this shite if your country had been invaded.
It's crazy, Putin invades, gets what he wants and doesn't have to pay for shite, right? We just expect the victim to suffer and pay.

We're at year three of this, bro. It's time to change course.
Posted on 2/20/25 at 10:34 am to Harry Boutte
They did. Then things got to a stage where Z felt he had to ban men from leaving the country, force military conscription, and lower the age of draft eligibility.
What happens when we run out of Ukrainian men?

Of course they are.
None of you are sincere about this. You accuse the Ukraine government of corruption, yet give the Putin regime a pass? You wouldn't fight if your country had been invaded?
I'm convinced none of you mean any of this ridiculousness, you're just playing a game of politics. Your man likes it, therefore you like it.
