He can't discuss it because a plan for this does not exist. Just more bullshite from Team TACO and everyone in that room knows it.

In occupied Crimea, a fuel depot near Simferopol GRES is burning, while explosions and impacts were also reported in Feodosia, Hvardiiske, and Sevastopol. In Krasnodar Krai, drones struck the Afipsky oil refinery, and fuel tanks burned again in Uryupinsk.

As everyone outside of the White House and Kremlin predicted, Kyiv refuses the Putin-TACO land grab yet again for the sixth time....
Russia sends TACO their ultimatums, TACO pushes them on to Kyiv unread, Kyiv refuses them. Rinse and repeat. Putin gets another delay to push off the inevitable collapse of his economy, energy infrastructure and ultimately his regime.
TACO can't save him now and when the Epstein files are finally opened up, Putin's hold on him vanishes. That's when the fun starts.

According to The New York Times, Ukraine’s own peace plan sent to the United States rejects withdrawing troops from Donbas and refuses any abandonment of NATO aspirations.
The counterproposal stands in contrast to elements of the US peace initiative and underscores Kyiv’s insistence on maintaining sovereign control of its territory and Euro-Atlantic integration.

Fuselage broke in half mid-air?
A 'technical malfunction'...? Ya think?

Earlier, IvanovoNews reported that the An-22 flight took place despite statements about the decommissioning of such aircraft. The aircraft had been in service for over 50 years.
The Commander of the Military Transport Aviation, Lieutenant General Vladimir Benediktov, announced in June 2024 that the MTA would cease operations of the world's largest turboprop aircraft, the An-22 Antey, as of 2024.
The An-22 was designed for airborne assault and the transportation of military equipment. Its maiden flight took place in 1965. A total of 67 An-22 aircraft were produced.
According to preliminary data, the crashed aircraft first took off in 1974. According to Kommersant, the flight was conducted following routine maintenance; the aircraft had been in service for over 50 years and most likely crashed due to a technical malfunction.

AU86 - What happened???

Totally makes sense for Z to pursue those guarantees. Doesn't make sense for us to give them. But he will probably end up getting something that is basically Article 5-lite.

We can protect our borders and honor our commitments that we’ve made to other countries. It’s not an either or.
We have honored our commitment to Ukraine, and then some. The narrative that we haven't is honestly insulting to the US imo.
Also can =/= should. And I'm not sure we actually can... Not because we don't have the resources, but I'm not sure we have the bandwidth. It takes our inept government so long to do anything that isn't pro-Israel that we actually do need to pick and choose what is worth that bandwidth and what isn't.
I think this issue is absolutely worth Europe's. Not as sure about ours.

There have been plenty of people on this board that recommended we do nothing. That opinion had been prevalent here and in these war threads.

We certainly could have done better, but considering the inefficiencies in government and Joe Biden things didn’t go smoothly.

It’s hard enough to get our government to act swiftly and efficiently, it’s even harder to get all the nations in Europe in sync, but you are tight Europe certainly should be more sgreddive and unified in protecting Ukraine.
Are they finally coming together and are they bringing more to the arena? I think so,.

Z continues to negotiate. No news about Putin. Meanwhile Ukranian progress in Kupansk continues.

Key Takeaways
Ukrainian forces continue to advance within and near Kupyansk, and more details have emerged about the counteroffensive effort. Ukrainian forces began counteroffensive operations in September 2025 after relatively rapid Russian advances in the Kupyansk direction and infiltrations into Kupyansk itself. Russian forces launched 495 total missiles and drones against Ukraine overnight on December 12 to 13, heavily targeting energy infrastructure across the country. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that he will hold discussions regarding a peace settlement with US and European delegations in Berlin in the coming days.
Ukrainian forces recently advanced in the Kupyansk and Lyman directions. Russian forces recently advanced in the Lyman direction.

We have done something. People wanting something in the past done differently can be noted but is irrelevant ultimately. I think Europe should step up and we should focus on things important to us going forward, knowing we have already given plenty to Ukraine.

They think defending Ukraine at any cost is just as important as securing our border and improving the economy. Which is wrong.
Deluded folks.

We should always do that.

We have and it would be stupid to fritter away all we’ve done by selling out Ukraine.
