It's amazing and awesome to watch this Ukraine conflict collapse the globalist nightmare we've been living in.

US intelligence overheard General Surovikin's conversation in October 2022: the risk of using a nuclear weapon has increased by 50% – NYT

??In October 2022, US intelligence overheard a conversation between Russian General Surovikin: he was ready to use nuclear weapons to prevent Ukrainians from crossing the Dnieper and entering Crimea. After that, the probability of using nuclear weapons increased sharply from 5-10% to 50%, NYT writes.
??This period "could have become the best chance for the Ukrainian Armed Forces to deliver a decisive blow," but this moment never came. The Ukrainians were able to enter Kherson, abandoned by the Russians, and occupy the western bank of the Dnieper, but the offensive there was stopped due to a lack of ammunition.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy /
@ZelenskyyUa
·

I spoke with the President of Finland
@alexstubb
. I thanked him for all the support Finland is providing, and we discussed ways to strengthen joint efforts with our partners to establish a lasting peace and ensure security.

Alexander shared details of his meeting with
@POTUS
. We are ready to work with our American partners as meaningful and quickly as possible to bring peace closer. There is also a common understanding that the ceasefire must be unconditional and reliable.

Right now, Russia continues looking for excuses to drag this war out even further. Putin is playing the same game he has since 2014. This is dangerous for everyone — and there should be an appropriate response from the United States, Europe, and all our global partners who seek peace.

We need to engage more with America, find ways to force Russia into peace, and work on security guarantees, which must become our next step after the ceasefire.

Thank you for the support and for all efforts to end the war and achieve a dignified peace.

It's weird that you didn't share the quote from the very next tweet.

The word "if" should tell you he's speaking in hypotheticals.

President Trump says he is "very angry, pissed off" at Putin and is prepared to place new sanctions on Russian oil.
We have two clauses here, the first is absolutely true, the second is laughably not.

Putin has predictably played Trump like a fiddle in front of the whole world. And he will continue to stick it to Shine Boy as long as he wants because he knows Donnie will do absolutely nothing about it.

More sanctions? What a joke. What further sanctions can be added to the hundreds already in place? Wake me up when Trump decides to enforce sanctions rather than just create more rediculous paperwork.

So yeah, Trump is pissed but in spite of being in the most powerful position in the world, he won't do a thing about it. He's a chump and he'll do what he's told.

Interesting. I never knew Biden was such a shrewd negotiator. Tip of the cap to him for locking down such a deal. Highlight of his presidency in my opinion

Trump had a couple of options.

He can try and drive down oil prices.

He can announce that he is going to release the aid he has bottled up and explore sending more outdated weaponry to Ukraine that fits Ukraine’s situation.

Trump the Candidate: "I'm gonna put a deal in front of Putin to end the war. If he doesn't take it, I'll give Ukraine more weapons than they ever dreamed of."

Trump the President: "Putin is ignoring me! If he keeps this up I'm gonna step up the sanctions!"

Insert Putin laughing gif.

UPI (via Yahoo! News): Trump ‘angry’ at Putin for criticizing Zelensky’s legitimacy

President Donald Trump said Sunday that he was "angry" at Russian President Vladimir Putin for comments he made criticizing the legitimacy of Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky.

...

The president added that entities that buy oil from Russia would not be able to do business in the United States and said there would be a 25% tariff on all oil if Russia does not reach a ceasefire deal with Ukraine within a month.

Putin, the only candidate in Russia's last election, questions Zelensky's legitimacy is like Lavrov saying Ukraine invaded Russia.

Ukraine loves their Bradleys and would love more and could use a couple of hundred F16's with contract pilots and maintenance crews..

Harm missiles would end Russia's air defense like it was Saddam's.
