There are multiple media reports outlining ‘terms’ that Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced in order to establish the framework for a ceasefire. Every single one of those ‘western media reports‘ are fake news. Putin has not made any statement of terms or conditions for a ceasefire.
What the media are doing is extrapolating on the prior terms Putin announced when he was trying to avoid war with Ukraine. Those terms included: (1) No NATO membership for Ukraine, (2) no western boots-on-ground peacekeepers (IC ops), (3) Ukraine is denazified/demilitarised and (4) the 4 Donbass regions are accepted by Ukraine/NATO as Russian territory. Again, these were the previous pre-war terms.
President Putin visited the Kursk region where fighting was previously intense as Ukraine mounted a counteroffensive last year, and Russia has just completed retaking most of the area. During his visit Russian President Putin made the following statement. [Source Kremlin]
“In this regard, I would like to, as you have already noted Some units that have shown themselves in the best way, I hear almost and you have named some of them every day, lately both in the morning and in the evening, I still want to name those that I have heard of.
These are the 76th Guards Air Assault Division, the 106th Guards Air Assault Division, 11th Guards Separate Air Assault Division brigade and 83rd Guards Air Assault Brigade, 56th Guards Air Assault Regiment of the 7th Air Assault Division, 155th Guards Separate Marine Brigade of the Pacific Fleet, 810th Marine Brigade Infantry of the Black Sea Fleet, 177th Guards Separate Marine Regiment of the Caspian Flotilla, the 34th Guards Motorized Rifle Brigade – in the last time, in the last week, probably, she acted especially actively, on the 22nd Motorized Rifle Regiment of the 72nd Motorized Rifle Division, 1220th Motorized Rifle Regiment of the 3rd motorized rifle division and the Akhmat special forces, which have already sounded here, the volunteer formation “Veterans”, which is distinguished by special audacity and efficiency, and all those who acted together with them. I would also like to thank the leadership of the Main Operational Directorate of the General Staff for what has been done Work.
Indeed, our task in the near future, in the shortest possible time to finally defeat the enemy entrenched in the territory of the Kursk region and still fighting here, to completely liberate the territory of the Kursk region, to restore the situation along the line of the state border. And, of course, it is necessary I would like to ask you to think in the future about creating a security zone along the state borders – this also needs to be thought about.
There is something else I would like to draw your attention to.
All people who are on the territory of the Kursk region, commit crimes against the civilian population here, counteract Our Armed Forces, law enforcement agencies and special services, in accordance with the laws of the Russian Federation, are terrorists. So their actions are qualified by the Prosecutor General’s Office of Russia, and it is under these articles that “terrorism”, a criminal case was opened against them by the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation.
Valery Vasilyevich has just mentioned the prisoners. But these people, of course, first of all, we must treat as terrorists in accordance with the laws of the Russian Federation. We treat all people and must treat all people humanely in the future – everyone who has fallen into our hands. Together At the same time, I would also like to remind you that foreign mercenaries do not fall under the 1949 Geneva Convention relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War.
And of course, I ask you to convey my gratitude to everything personal squad for what has been done recently. I very much hope that All the combat missions facing our units will certainly be have been fulfilled and the territory of the Kursk region will soon be fully liberated from the enemy.” ~ Russian President Vladimir Putin, 3/12/25
That’s it.
That’s the total confirmed commentary from Russian President Vladimir Putin in advance of President Trump special envoy traveling to Moscow to discuss terms and conditions for a ceasefire as a result of the U.S-Ukraine delegation discussion in Saudi Arabia.
Putin would not make a statement before listening to Witkoff. The Russian President is strategic, not emotional.
Western media are insufferable in their narrative spin and attributing statements that are non-existent. Do not fall for the fake news.


All corporate media lies. FOX News, NBC, CNN, Wall Street Journal, NY Times-all are liars.
On this particular issue they are lying for the express purpose of continuing the bloodbath in a war that they are using as a global money laundering operation.
May they all face the full wrath of God.

🚨 #BREAKING: Russia agrees with the temporary ceasefire in Ukraine after Trump sent Rubio and Witkoff to help broker it.
This is the Art of the Deal in action! And COUNTLESS lives will be saved.
Putin thanked President Trump for his efforts, and says he wants to speak with him first before making it final.
Trump is truly the peace President!
Video linked…
🙏👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🍻
Ukraine views it differently. They say this means Putin rejects it…I guess we will have to wait fir Rubio to further discuss with
Again, Ukraine, you have no chips left. You have nothing to bargain with but yet, you can’t seem to grasp this fact. For some reason you think this works like American youth sports where everybody leaves with a trophy. Well, sorry, it’s not American youth sports, thus, you’re the loser and leave with less than the winner.
“Ukraine sees it differently”.
What a shock, not.
NWO puppets == perverter inverters of reality.
Orwell famously referred to this perversion inversion tactic as ” double speak” English.
Citizens, War is Peace. — Big Brother
Russia just pulled off an absolutely brilliant, and courageous, modern day Trojan Horse attack. He sent 800 soldiers through a below-ground, 7-mile-long, shut-down gas pipeline, all of whom successfully emerged behind enemy lines in the Kursk region. The invading Ukrainian Nazis, who were caught totally unawares, immediately started to shjt bricks.
Putin’s generals have planned and carried out one of the most amazing pincer movements in the history of warfare. In order to escape from their Kursk trap, the Ukrainian forces must now run a multi-kilometer gauntlet, on the one main road remaining, through basically open fields.
I wonder if they can spell “Toast”?
Get ready NOT to hear about the mass surrender and capture of thousands of Ukrainian troops in the Kursk region. The Ukrainians are about to lose their last remaining card — the deuce of clubs.
Putin is going to politely tell Witkoff what’s what. No ceasefire. Just surrender. You want peace? It’ll be on my terms or it won’t happen. Please give my regards to Donald. Have a nice day. Safe travels.
President Putin just ACCEPTED the cease fire agreement with Ukraine!
“…but wants to speak with Trump before making it final.” Any idea what he wants to talk about?
He wants to have sanctions lifted which President Trump already said was doable.
Macgregor has some thoughts on the matter,…
This won’t age well. Macgregor is wrong about how 47 will get peace. He’s saying 47 isn’t serious. When he says that, he LOSES all credibility.
He says we don’t have leverage over Russia. He’s wrong. 47 does have leverage. He’ll put in sanctions that really have bite. He’ll limit their oil sales.
Macgregor thinks too highly of himself.
pull NATO- troops to 1997 borders/demilitarized /denazify UKR./stop sanction/return “frozen”russian money in the WEST no ukr. in the NATO/accept lost of territories to RUSSIA…this is some of them..of course no piano men ..election…
These guys, perhaps?:
“Together At the same time, I would also like to remind you that foreign mercenaries do not fall under the 1949 Geneva Convention relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War.”
…- The perp walks and courtroom show-and-tell on these is going to be *Beyond Belief*…
…- “Here’s Corporal John Smith, with the UK’s Special Air Service. And over here we have Sergeant Dave Jones with the US’s Delta Force, and here we have…”
Thanks for the invite to guess.
My guess…..
The conversation between Orange Man Bad (or Rad) and Vlad; a phone call the
he ENTIRE WORLD now knows is going to occur ==
trolling their mutual NWO adversaries, or as Sun Tsu advised, aggravating chimeric enemies
gathering Intel by monitoring reactions
hyping and gaining as many eyeballs as possible on what happens in future episodes of this interactive, very real, 24/7 “movie”.
Correcting auto correct:
“chimeric” == choleric, or in modern parlance, easily enraged
In principle…
I’d like to be happy about this.
I can’t help feeling that, one way or another, before a cease fire or after, Z or the EU will pee in the punch bowl.
Of coarse PRESIDENT Putin accepted in principle, and with conditions which include talking to President Trump.
And he stated he wants to insure this ceasefire leads to a lasting peace, rather than just being a reprieve for kiev, and he wants to insure the underlieing factirs that led to the war, are addressed so as to insure they don’t occur again.
The Rudssian position is that NATO expansion into Ukraine was THE final straw “deciding factor” and President Trump SAYING that Biden and Z stupidly talking about NATO membership, was his signalling agreement.
That “Russian trojan horse” manuever was timed too perfectly to coincide with these negotiations, with the cease fire occurring AFTER the Ukes are encircled and surrendered…
Thank God for President Trump, but also thank God for President Putin, as we surely could have had a Russian leader who would not have shown his restraint.
Well said Dutch, especially the part about restraint. Putin could have used them surrounding those Ukrainians and then slaughtering them as the- see, you won’t win move. Rather, he made it about mercy. That’s what Russia showed, mercy. But that will be overlooked by western media.
Putin’s “restraint” ie Putins refusal to react by taking the Europhilic NWO’s violence escalating bait
Something else that President Trump has noted PUBLICALLY since beginning his 2nd term.
Especially since January 20th, Its been fascinating to watch these two gifted men, and their allies, display such multi level synergy in the global arena. H/t Teddy Roosevelt’s famous “Man in the Arena” speech.
It’s called Operation Exposing Zelenskyi.
“Operation Exposing Zelensky”.
Zelensky == the Euro servile Globalist NWO Cabal
President Trump said he would meet with Putin almost every day in the past few weeks. Why would that be a demand if President Trump already agreed to the meeting?
“Why would it be a demand”.
Word Choices Matter. 😘
In this case, what was framed as a ” demand” was actually just a statement of fact.
ie I WILL be talking with President Trump BEFORE I issue a final, formal, written ACCEPTANCE.
How I took it too.
Putin realizes his war against the global order in Ukraine is no longer necessary because Trump really wants an end to it. They are in agreement already for this ceasefire to exist, now the EU and Ukraine have to face their defeat.
Watching Alex Christoferou today (around 12 minutes in), it appears Z is already doing that.
Zelenskys actual relevance to what Orange Man Rad and Vlad are doing and will do == ZERO
Although some may continue to be entertained by his antics.
Personally, I’d prefer that ultimately Z uses the dirt he has on the Globalist Death Cult, including the dirt PDJT alluded during their famous “perfect phone call”, to not only survive but be redeemed.
Yep, Z is a total disaster, he will F things up anyway he can. I was hoping they could get him out of this process, maybe they still will.
It is a total disaster since FEB.2014..and it started with cookie monster Toria Nudelman/nuland….VVP is also lawyer and he do not permit another Mionsk I,II,III……
Trump has clearly stated what will happen then. Ukraine will be Russian again.
Of course; however, if we know this, so does Putin and Trump.
Lot’s of ice water here today!
…with terms, to be worked out with Trump.
See, “Putin Issues List of Demands to Achieve 30-Day Ceasefire”:
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/putin-rejects-us-temporary-cease-fire-plan-appears-military-fatigues
Fwiw,
Despite what the ZeroHedge headline suggests, this list of DEMANDS were NOT issued in response to this weeks Team Trump peace seeking events.
As Sundance pointed out above, this list is repurposed OLD NEWS ie its based on a list of pre war concerns rather than current events which means it’s now FAKE NEWS
Nonsense
Show me where
Show you where. What?
Joe, my friend, don’t believe everything you read. Go with your gut instincts. I know you know that already. Godspeed.
[7:45 MT]
“President Putin just ACCEPTED the ceasefire agreement with Ukraine”.
😍 😍 😍
To provide better psywarfare protection perhaps describe this as President Putin accepting President Trumps INVITATION for Russian and Ukrainian envoys to attend a face to face MEETING
to DISCUSS the feasability of crafting a ” ceasefire agreement”
that could lead to a realistic, sustainable peace.
Actual progress is more likely when, as the old saying goes, “the horse rather than the cart is first”.
That incursion will go down in History Books!
Kursk Collapse Accelerates as Daring Pipeline Raid Shocks AFU
👆 👆
Simplicius76
Gypsy…was not it something whole operation …great crescendo of 7 months long fight to liberate Kursk…..
The Ukrainians captured about 1,000 sq km of Russian territory last August to have a bargaining chip, (ie trade Russian territory for Ukrainian territory), in any future peace negotiations. The Russian pipeline counteroffensive has captured part of that territory back. You paint a rosy picture for the Russian force’s prospects in Kursk but we’ve been lied to about this war by the media so often I won’t believe anyone’s prognostication until it happens. Time will tell if the mass Ukrainian surrender you’re predicting is more accurate than what you had to say about Putin rejecting Trump’s ceasefire offer.
Who wants to be the last Ukrainian soldier to die fighting Russia?
Agree!
Appomattox……Generals surrender.
A soldier sitting in a trench freezing his
cojones off.
He knows that the majority of weapons and ammo
he has been using comes from the US🇺🇸🇺🇸
He hears of stop on weapons and ammo by US.
He gets word of what is happening in Kursk.😳
He hears about the talks by US of Peace 🕊️🕊️
and ceasefire.
Decisions…decisions 💁♀️🤷♀️
Self preservation is one of the most
powerful things in War….and Life.
Perhaps the last Ukrainian, preferring a chance at freedom and liberty, to being a satellite of Russia, Joe? Would you say something similar about the Baltic states or Finland?
The planning was very complex and capitalized on the brilliant decision by the US military which commands the Ukrainian regime to end the transport of critically needed by the EU, natural gas, through those pipelines.
A few days before the Special Forces entered the pipelines (they spent 2 days in them, some soldiers perished due to the lingering fumes), the Russians took out the control systems in Poltava using Iskander missiles. This insured gas could not be released back into the lines.
The bridges on the one highway the fascists had to retreat out of Russian territory had been packed with explosives by the Ukrainians to have the option to demolish them to stop the Russian advances when the time came.
Russian drones were sent to detonate these munitions destroying the bridges at the exact time to coincide with the special forces leaving the pipelines and capturing key terrain to lock up the invaders.
Brilliant planning, risky and is a historical perfectly executed operation.
The goal was to destroy the pocket while capturing or killing as many invaders as possible. Under Russian law, people who rape women and kill civilians on Russian lands are terrorists. The foreigners, embarrassingly including American servicemen, are not protected by any international law.
For that matter every aspect of the project to enslave Ukraine, destroying its’ infrastructure and society to unleash a decade of violence against Ukrainians living in the east and south to enrich our MIC companies and elites is immoral and illegal.
Our country is literally a state sponsor of terror. Trump needs to end this now. Reparations for Ukraine and Russia should be confiscated from all those companies, politicians and oligarchs here and in Europe who are involved.
Do you know anything about fascism or are you simply one of those folks who likes to toss polemical phrases around for effect?
To really separate meme from fact, would you mind defining fascism? More specifically, it would help if you would explain exactly how an admittedly corrupt Ukraine is a fascist state? If you can’t do that, using the term is a cheap shot.
I define fascism as the blend of large corporations and a police state that control the government.
The first fascist rendition was in Italy, blending socialism with corporatism under one dictator.
In this brief construct of territories defined as the modern Ukraine
from 1991 to 2022, it has been plundered by highly placed ex communist officials who became oligarchs working with American and European corporations, including one owned by our former puppet Biden termed as a “president”.
The economic and social conditions are so bad due to this fascist national rape that life expectancy and birth rates fell drastically. This why the calloused, perverted comedian Zelenskyy who we installed as dictator refuses to conscript 18 year olds. There aren’t many of this demographic and the oppressed population will finally revolt.
In the Galician region of western Ukraine there are groups of radicals called Banderites who formed militias in honor of Bandera. The thug who killed thousands of Poles, Jews and ethnic Russians. Their grandfathers volunteered for the Waffen SS Galician Duvision, littoral NAZIs.
These militias were incorporated into the regimes army and SBU with names like Azov.
They enforce the police state on civilians and form behind the assaults the conscripts are ordered to launch, to kill any retreating or surrendering conscripts.
Fascism, like communism, have many variants. Thankfully 20% of the territory of this failed state are incorporated into the RF, to be rebuilt, and no one knows how the remainder will splinter after the regimes’ imminent collapse.
And how is the weather lately in St. Petersburg, frend Uwungelema.? I understand springtime can be rather pleasant where you are . . .
Garrison, have you been noticing anybody around you suffering gladly lately? No one? Nobody?
Uh oh.
Vertical envelopment from underground.
Proverbs 10
Do you know how President Trump feels about Chinese Encirclement in Brazil, Cuba, Panama, Canada and Greenland? Not to mention Rigged Elections, Wuhan and the Obiden Oval Office?
That’s exactly President Putin views NATO Encirclement. And correctly so.
Poland has monuments to Pope John Paul and President Ronald Reagan.
But its foolish leader seems intent on repealing and repudiating their Cold War Victory to #KeepHateAlive–and the Blood Money flowing.
This War was nurtured, manipulated, manufactured and purposely provoked by BlackRock & Oligarchy, the EU/WEF, NATO & Weapons-makers, Grifting Politicians on two continents, Soros/USAID, State & CIA, Barack Obankster and his Globo Owners and, of course, their Ukrainian NAZI allies.
President Putin will do what he believes he needs to do in the face of such lawless aggression by those who have used Ukrainians as cannon fodder props to beard their own Genocidal Greed for Power, Blood Money and Empire. Ukraine may not even last long enough to negotiate.
President Trump, President Putin and Prime Minister Orban alone act out of love for their countries. Lord, use that commonality to bring Peace, Amen!
UPDATE: BREAKING: Russian President Putin Accepts US-Ukraine Ceasefire Plan
— But With Specific Conditions | The Gateway Pundit: The Russian president said: ‘We agree with the proposals for the ceasefire, but our position is based on the assumption the ceasefire will lead to a long-term peace’.”

Would there was a way Archbishop Vigano could replace the usurper in Rome, as Pope.
or Cardinal Sarah…..right hand of JP2……saaadly UK is lost ….so is Germany/France…..
Yes… Cardinal Sarah or Cardinal Burke. It might be wise to have a conservative American pope at this time in history.
Agreed re: Cardinal Vigano but there’s no way, unfortunately.
I’m worried about the next pope. The last thing we need is a Pope Francis on steroids. Cardinals Parolin and Tagle would pretty much fill that bill.
I don’t know a lot about this Dutch.
But I read Archbishop Vigano myself as well..
If he could be the Pope, that would be life changing, world changing.. many would call it a miracle.
BUT I consider Archbishop Vigano a bit of a Patriot among thieves.. as a whistleblower.
I have no doubt at all that he’s not liked much in certain church circles because he’s pulling back the curtain and telling so much truth.
So I can’t imagine them all choosing him..
But I don’t know a lot about how this process works, so maybe I’m wrong, this is my gut feelings only..
Longing for JPIII.
Unfortunately, or fortunately, there isn’t any way for Vigano to replace the usurper in Rome, as Pope”.
Source: former devout Roman Catholic now Orthodox (non Roman) Catholic. Thank God!
I just saw a statement, made by President Putin, which is from a link at TGP.
In it, he says he is agreable to the ceasefire, so long as it leads to a permanent cessation of fighting (rather than just a reprieve for Ukes) AND addresses the underlieing causes, i.e. NATO expansion.
The two alpha-male Presidents are working the problem, and all the beta males are chasing their tails,…or tales?
Dutch, it can be both tales and tails. Which one precedes the other, well, that’s up to them to decide.
Zelensky is a known liar and a crook..
So how could anyone predict what he will and won’t do? (as far as the ceasefire being lasting)
Exactly why he must be removed from his illegitimate office.
There was an interview, this afternoon Russian Time, of President Putin during his visit to Belarus. Provides a few more details of expectations, President Putin is going to express to President Trump, as the 30-day Cease fire Agreement is negotiated. the expectations center around the Ukraine not being allowed to use the 30-Day cease fire to recover in order to start fighting again…30-Days from the start of the cease fire.
There is a quote from a Russian General in an article on the same page as the one I reference … “Cease fires are for those in retreat and loosing”.
Key among them, from the article:
Ukraine stops mobilizing.
Ukraine (NATO) stops training new units.
No NEW (US and NATO) Weapons deliveries to the Ukraine.
https://www.rt.com/russia/614167-putin-ukraine-ceasefire-guarantees/
All things I think Putin knows Trump agrees to but also knows the EU and Zelenskyy will scuttle. I’m waiting for Trump to walk away and say, fine, EU, have it your way. Rhamstein- closed. Troops form other EU bases, coming home. Defend yourselves and by the way, no more Marshall Plan or NATO subsidies. You are on your own.
Then things will change very rapidly.
So the media reports about Putins terms of conditions for a ceasefire are all fake but the same media who are telling you Putin visited the “front lines” is not fake?
So fake news is only fake sometimes when it fits? How about Fake News is Always Fake News …All of It, especially the part about Russia Invading Ukraine , War on Covid, Biden 2020, J6 Insurrection, etc, etc, etc,
DEEP FAKE WARS
Note that ALL articles you list, cite the exact same source and the stories are from TODAY and YESTERDAY. Those article specifically covered President Putins visit to the Troop’s liberating the KURSK Region … and he did say he wanted to talk about a cease fire.
At least try to read first and use articles referring to the same context before making these types empty argument.. also … self likes are kind of gouache..
What is pointed out by Sundance is that ALL the these same news sources USE terms and conditions laid out by President Putin from November 2021 through the start of the war in early 2022 as CONDITIONS for not even STARTING the War. if you read the articles further he was specifically talking about the KURSK OPERATION.
Fake News is Always Fake News. try to get it through your head and ditch the pathetic brown nosing.
Nice try spinning my honest and obvious observation into a personal attack on someone.
… it’s the usual liars.
No, he says it’s fake because of what the horse’s mouth said. When Sundance is calling them fake here, he’s just pointing out how they’re lying again, and then he goes on to prove how they’re lying.
President Trump and President Putin are seeing things clearly, in a non-pretending way, and so working together.
”
To adress the underlieing issues which caused the war, in a permanent way” said President Putin.
And it was EU/NATO expansion to Russias border, and the color revolutions provoked by USAID/CIA/GBHQ that were the “underlieing factors”.
HOW do you address these “underlieing factors”?
You BREAK them, the EU eurowienies.
Musks investments in AFD and Farages reform party, PDJT’s reciprocal tariffs while simultaneously demanding EU “pay up” is all a broader plan to reshape european and so global,…”politics”.
And morons are too stupid to see this bigger picture. And sadly, the morons are all over the airwaves and are considered “influencers” on X.
Geopolitics is fun until somebody like Putin rolls his tanks across your border, Dutch. When that happens everything changes. 🙂
“everything changes”
for the better
at least for those who seek to Be Best? 😘
About 12:30 PM EST Putin agreed to a 30 day ceasefire.
There remains a possibility that Russia and the US (the new revolutionary US) will enter into a much broader and friendly, working, arrangements.
The Ukraine project is just a money laundering distraction that had a misguided long term goal to destroy the RF and exploit its’ resources as we did in Ukraine from 1991 to the present (smoking ruins).
Our country installed our handpicked local mafioso puppets to create a militarized police state in an impoverished from corruption, and ethnically unstable construct of a created state.
We can end, by mercy killing (ending financing and arming) the agony and slaughter of what’s left of “Ukraine”.
There is nothing more we can send that will avoid complete collapse and resulting chaos and misery going forward.
As master diplomats, the Russians will likely avoid rubbing our neocon noses in, and avoid humiliating Trump by bragging about defeating the US and its’ NATO colonies.
Any military analyst can see our commands, weapon systems, arms production capacity and strategic planning are no match for extended land wars against Russia.
Rather, they will likely seek to develop a host of projects and security arrangements with the US that benefit both sides.
VVP… got all card..will be it last peace???? ….I doubt western WEF clowns would dare play games with VSGPDJT…..any break of ceasefire and you can expect visit of Dr.Hazelnut/Oreschnik…
Slava Tebje Gospode Boze Slava Tebje! Amin. In the Serbian language Oreschenik is a Walnut. Lesnik is a Hazelnut. Close enough. Gospodi Pomiluj. This year Easter falls on the same Sunday, my favorite holiday, praying peace shall come.
Donna….Will be peace on the Earth this coming Easter….??-Pray and Hope (St.Pio)…..
Putin personally explaining WHY this “ceasefire” is impossible and why SMO continues. Saudi Arabia “proceedings” between the US and 404 have been essentially directed at saving VSU along the WHOLE (2000 km) front line. https://smoothiex12.blogspot.com/2025/03/here-is-your-response-verbatim.html
John Bolton, and half of the British government, must now be on suicide watch.
I would happily pay to watch them commit suicide!
VSU and NATO have left 70,000 dead behind,no wonder they want a ceasefire,https://smoothiex12.blogspot.com/2025/03/they-wanted-kursk-battle.html
lots of work for them yet to do, but i can’t help wonder –
could we see VP as a guest at Mar-a-Lago?
PT a guest at The Grand Kremlin Palace?
oh how i pray so!
wouldn’t that be STUPENDOUS?😁
I was thinking and praying for the same. PVP golfing with PDJT having chocolate cake with both having 2 scoops of ice cream. Oh Lord peace is a beautiful thing. Glory be to God.
Thanks, Sundance, for that insight. Like most Americans, I was under the impression that Putin had put his requirements on the table. I should have known better.
RT is reporting Russia has agreed to a ceasefire conditional on movement to a longterm deal.
Putin and Trump had this worked out, obviously. Ukraine will monitor Russia, thus the intel restart yesterday. Shooting will stop hopefully.
All good.
Putin Press Conference answering two question regarding ceasefire (in English) https://www.youtube.com/live/cyIn9BxoqzM?si=U3VMiPqntbSWAmwd&t=1471
Grok Summary of Putin answers regarding ceasefire
President Putin began by addressing the readiness of Ukraine for a ceasefire. He expressed gratitude to the President of the United States for focusing on regulating the conflict in Ukraine, noting that many global leaders, including the Chairman of China, the Prime Minister of India, and the heads of state of Brazil and South Africa, are also devoting significant attention to this issue. He emphasized that their efforts are aimed at reducing human loss in the conflict, and Russia is appreciative of this involvement. Putin stated that Russia agrees with ceasefire proposals, but only if they lead to a long-term peace that addresses the initial causes of the crisis.
Regarding Ukraine’s readiness for a ceasefire, Putin referenced a meeting between Americans and Ukrainians in Saudi Arabia, suggesting that the Ukrainian decision appears to be influenced by American pressure. However, he believes Ukraine should have insisted on this ceasefire based on the situation on the ground. To illustrate this, he recounted his recent visit to Kryon, where he received a report from the Chief of Staff and the commander of the Seever grouping about the situation in the Kursk region. He claimed that the situation there is fully under Russian control, with the Ukrainian military grouping isolated, under fire control, and having lost its commanders. Putin described how Ukrainian forces attempted to leave the area in small groups but are now limited to groups of two or three, having abandoned their equipment, which cannot be retrieved. He predicted that within days, it would become physically impossible to leave the area, leaving Ukrainian soldiers with two options: surrender or die.
In this context, Putin suggested that a 30-day truce would be beneficial for the Ukrainian side, and Russia supports it. However, he raised a nuance: if Russia halts military action for 30 days, it would allow Ukrainian military personnel in the Kursk region to leave without fighting, potentially including those who committed crimes, rather than surrendering. He questioned how this ceasefire would address broader issues along the entire 1,000-kilometer front line, where Russian forces are currently on the offensive, creating conditions to block or surround large Ukrainian formations. He pondered whether Ukraine would use the 30 days to continue forced mobilization, supply weapons, or train newly mobilized units, and if not, how these matters would be resolved.
Putin further highlighted logistical and trust issues, such as how to verify compliance and ensure that neither side exploits the ceasefire. He stressed the complexity of controlling a 2,000-kilometer area, determining violations, and assigning blame. These are serious questions requiring thorough discussion on both sides. While he affirmed that the idea of a ceasefire is correct and Russia supports it, he emphasized the need for clarity and guarantees. Putin suggested that these issues should be discussed with American partners, possibly through a call with President Trump. He concluded by reiterating Russia’s support for ending the conflict peacefully, provided these critical questions are addressed.
Who’s taking bets that Zelensky will purposefully sabotage the peace deal?
Not if President Trump stops the $$$, weapons, targeting and Starlink if Zelensky does his tricks?
They’ll use a cut out for the provocation.
Like the hundreds of drones sent at Moscow that most certainly didn’t come from Ukraine territory.
Fortunately, trying to sabotage “the peace deal” =/= suceeding.
In Z’s case, his chances of succeeding == ZERO
Although any attempts his Euro Masters convince him to make, if any, will be both entertaining AND psywar usefully revealing.
Great movies have great actors/great characters; both heros AND villains.
While following the entire Kursk Operation from the start of the Ukrainian “Incursion” through the current Russian Counter Offensive … as well as Z-Man’s replacement of his General Staff and INTEL Chief … parallels (both in terms of Military and Political decisions) between these current events and the events surrounding the FIRST Battle of Kursk, January through October 1943, are striking.
It is as if the NATO and Ukrainian Commanders are using the German actions in 1943 as their operational script and are following it to the letter .. while Z-man and his NATO political handlers are doing their best impression of Hitler’s government in their strategic decision making regarding the operation.
In 1943, the end result was the total collapse of the German East Front when the Soviets opened full blown offensives around Orel-Bryansk in the center and the Don River bend (near Kharkov) in the South … and the start of retreat in October 1943 that did not end until total defeat in April 1945.
Sound familiar??

I probably dont know what I am talking about, seeing how I dont have the capacity to understand the huge picture plan President Trump is executing, but maybe there is something to:
During meetings a few weeks ago, I got a strong impression that President Putin formally financially engaged President Trump as an arbitor/negotiator agent for Russia.
What agreements were signed between the Ukrainian govermentment and the US Department of Treasury a few days ago?
Probably lifting sanctions against Russia.
Are you talking about something else or this?

Putin and Lukashenko hold news conference in Moscow – watch in full – YouTube
👆 👆 👆 Sky news has video of this …….4 hours ago news conference- English Translation
Watch and listening for yourself is always the best!
Ukraine is discussed.
👩🏫 👩🏫 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉
It is also great for recognizing the spin and
propaganda narratives the mainstream media
will attempt.
🤣 🤣 🤣
Mercouris is spot on. Putin has very politely said “no” while also saying that he is open to continuing to work with Trump toward peace.
I don’t get it. Zelensky says, “We accept peace proposal, but we want dah, dah, dah, and dah.”
You guys say, “Yay! Zelensky, da man! He agreed to peace.”
But Putin says, “We accept peace proposal, but we want dah, dah, dah, and dah.”
And then you guys are like, “Boo, bad Pooty, he didn’t agree to peace plan, da really bad man!”
Seriously, you guys are just too funny.
I didn’t see anywhere that Putin said either a polite or impolite NO!
Diplo-speak.
He can say “yeah, sure, ceasefire” then proceed to note the things that he wants genuine ceasefire talks to take into consideration.
He’s not accepting the “time-out” rope-a-dope crap from Z-Bag, he is setting the terms for the conversation that would settle all the issues at hand without simply handing an advantage to the Ukronazies that would only serve to harm Russian interests.
Mercouris views both Putin AND Trump through a profoundly European filter. Hence, to repurpise Kubrick’s famous movie title, he isnt totally “Eyes Wide Shut” blind since he does see Putin fairly realistically despite the relentless Western Media propoganda.
However, when it comes to PDJT, Alexanders vision is still profoundly distorted by the same Western Propoganda sources he can see through when it comes to Putin. Consequently, when it comes to analyzing PDJT and Putin I view Alexander as still having ONE “Eye Wide Shut” blindness.
Hopefully his vision will continue to improve since right now he’s missing out on so much which would completely enchant him if he could only see better
The left is too intellectually deficient to contend with the likes of Putin. Everything the man does/says is calculated, thought out and with purpose.
All the way down to the briefings he provides to the troops. He makes it a point to emphasize key points, which CTH was nice enough to highlight, he wants to emphasize to his troops.
I too find it especially noteworthy he makes it a point to differentiate combatants to treat fairly and everyone else, as indicated by the following excerpt…
“I would also like to remind you that foreign mercenaries do not fall under the 1949 Geneva Convention relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War.”
I wonder who he’s specifically referring to, hmmm… I don’t reckon there’s any contractors, CIA or SOF folks sadomasochistic enough to get captured.
It isn’t going well for the foreign terrorists encountered in Kursk.
Not for the Ukronazi terrorists either.
I’d like to suggest that Russia demand, as a condition of the peace treaty, that the US must leave NATO (at which point whether Ukraine joins or not becomes irrelevant as the whole organization is toothless without the US military).
I don’t think that Mark Rutte the NATO Secretary General was in the Oval Office today with President Trump by accident!

Main events as of March 13:
The Russian Ministry of Defense reported the liberation of Sudzha, as well as the settlements of Melovaya and Podo in the Kursk region.
Ukrainian troop losses for the day amounted to up to 1190 people, with more than 340 servicemen in the Kursk direction.
Air defense forces destroyed 77 Ukrainian drones overnight over the territories of Bryansk, Kaluga, Kursk, Voronezh, Rostov, and Belgorod regions.
As a result of Ukrainian drone crashes, a fire occurred at an industrial enterprise in the Kaluga region, and infrastructure was damaged at a plant in the Tambov region, reported the regional governors.
Moscow agrees with the proposal to cease hostilities in Ukraine and is open to the idea of a truce, “but there are nuances,” stated Putin.
The command of the “Sever” troop grouping reported to Putin that the operation to liberate the Kursk region is entering its final stage, said Peskov.
Alaudinov stated that 5 settlements remain to be liberated in the Kursk region.
The U.S. Special Envoy for the Middle East, Steve Witkov, who arrived in Moscow, will meet with Russian representatives of a “very high rank,” and a meeting at the highest level is not ruled out, said Ushakov.
Lukashenko stated that the U.S. has no plan for the conflict in Ukraine, and Washington is probing the ground.
The FSB prevented a series of assassination attempts on participants in the SVO and government officials, whom Ukrainian special services intended to send bombs disguised as gift perfume sets through the mail.
About 100 citizens from missing persons lists have been found in Sudzha and surrounding villages, announced Mesenov, assistant to the head of the Ministry of Emergency Situations.
Ukraine has exhausted its stocks of American ATACMS tactical missiles, reports the Associated Press.

It sounds like Democrat rhetoric that stopping the aid is Trump helping Putin is likely what caused him to reverse his earlier decision. Advisors told him to resume sending aid in response to Democrat “Trump-Russia” rhetoric.

twitter – Zelensky
Right now, we have all heard from Russia Putin’s highly predictable and manipulative words in response to the idea of a ceasefire on the front lines—at this moment he is, in fact, preparing to reject it.
Of course, Putin is afraid to tell President Trump directly that he wants to continue this war and keep killing Ukrainians.
That’s why, in Moscow, they are surrounding the ceasefire idea with such preconditions that it either fails or gets dragged out for as long as possible.
Putin does this often—he doesn’t say ‘no’ outright, but he drags things out and makes reasonable solutions impossible.
We see this as yet another round of Russian manipulation.
There was a U.S. proposal for an unconditional ceasefire—in the air, at sea, and on the front lines.
We in Ukraine accepted this proposal.
We have heard from the American side that there is readiness to organize monitoring and verification. And this is absolutely feasible—with American and European capabilities.
And during the ceasefire, to prepare answers to all questions about long-term security and a real, lasting peace, and to put a plan to end the war on the table.
Ukraine is ready to work as quickly and constructively as possible. We have discussed this with U.S. representatives, and our European partners, as well as all our allies worldwide, are aware of it.
We are not setting conditions that complicate the process—Russia is.
As we have always said, the only one stalling, the only one being unconstructive, is Russia.
They need this war. Putin has stolen years of peace and continues this war day after day.
Now is the time to increase pressure on him. Sanctions must be applied—ones that will work.
We will continue working with our American and European partners and with everyone in the world who wants peace—to force Russia to end this war.
Even weasels look down on Z-Bag.
Murderous little Natzy.
Or as actress Melina Mecouris famously said to “Zorba the Greek”….
” next to you a snake is tall”
Don’t recall Putin saying anything predictable or manipulative!
In fact, his acceptance of the proposal was very unpredictable!

twitter – Andriy Yermak
Ukraine has expressed concerns about Russia’s likely push for maximalist demands as Moscow moved to set a trap for future ceasefire talks.
Ukraine “will never agree to a frozen conflict,” President Volodymyr Zelensky’s chief of staff, Andriy Yermak, said after a round of US-Russian ceasefire talks in Moscow on Thursday.
“We are against Minsk III, and Europe will be included in the peace process,” Yermak said in reference to past failed ceasefire deal efforts between Ukraine and Russia over the status of the Russian-occupied Eastern Ukraine.
Ukrainian officials have earlier said they were concerned putin would stick to pushing maximalist demands.
Some of those demands were to include a Ukrainian commitment to neutrality, international recognition of Russia’s annexed lands, and no European peacekeepers on the ground, according to Bloomberg,
A Ukrainian official told reporters, including Euractiv, that Kyiv would not recognise Russia’s claims over Ukrainian territory currently occupied by Russian troops through talks in the Saudi capital Jeddah.
“Our message, our intent was very clear to show that Ukraine is the side that wants peace – we are not an obstacle to peace, we are a partner in restoring peace,” the official said.
“We came with basically three proposals: a ceasefire in the air, a naval ceasefire in the Black Sea, and confidence-building measures such exchange of prisoners of war,” the official told reporters.
“But Ukraine made it clear that it will not recognise Russia’s rights over our territory,” the official said, adding that no territorial concessions had been discussed in the Jeddah talks.
According to the Ukrainian official, the recapture of Russian-occupied territories would not happen by military force but would need to happen through diplomatic means over a longer stretch of time.
“We understand that some of our land will need to be returned diplomatically, which can of course take time,” the official said.
Ukraine directly addressed US President Donald Trump in its messaging in recent days, adamantly saying that it was ready to take steps towards a ceasefire.
Kyiv’s acceptance of the US-proposed ceasefire was a “constructive compromise” to move towards Trump’s objective of ending the war, the Ukrainian official said.

Totally delusional.
The minimum of four oblasts demanded early on will not be rolled back and in the face of UkroNazi perfidy more territory to neutralize the threat and protect Russophones is sure to be the new minimum.
Odessa cannot be abandoned to UkroNazi abuse and retaliation.
To the River!
Deny the Sea!
Novorossiya will be Free!
Both Yermak and Zelensky are showing
their incompetence in diplomacy.
Hey..progress though 😁😁🤣
Before this the little green gnome was
spouting…Putin can no longer be President…
All lands prior to 2014 must be returned-including
Crimea and Russia troops must leave..just some
off the wall outrageous demands🙃🙃
Both of them are batsh!t 🤪 crazy.
My thought are, that these statements are for Ukrainian
People and troops. Keep them from doing something
“Drastic” and give himself enough time to pack
his 💼 suitcase.
Watching impotent Ukie puppets in Kiev pretend they have any real say in what the worlds real ADULT leaders, ie Putin and PDJT and their allies, decide to do, or not do, is both amusing AND psywarfare usefully revealing.
So hopefully the Slava Ukraini bros will keep on X-ing. https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/15.0.3/svg/1f618.svg
As an aside, Steve recently flew his private jet to Moscow for the release of the American prisoner, Vogel (?), who met with President Trump in the WH right after his return.
Was Steve’s earlier visit, at least in part, a convenient cover story pretext and/or an example of multi tasking, perchance?

US long-range bombs headed to Ukraine as ATACMS supply dwindles
The U.S. is poised to resume shipments to Ukraine of long-range bombs known as Ground-Launched Small Diameter Bombs (GLSDB), after they were upgraded to better counter Russian jamming, two people familiar with the weapon told Reuters.
[…]In recent weeks, 19 GLSDBs were test-fired to assess the effectiveness of the upgrades.
[…]The reintroduction of the GLSDB onto the battlefield could occur in the coming days, as a stockpile is already present in Europe.
[…]Russian jamming had kept many of Ukraine’s relatively new long-range GLSDBs from hitting their intended targets,

Very savvy move by Team Trump to counter the increasingly desperate Globalist Europhilic’s “OMG, Drumpf is Putin’s puppet” psyop narratives.
Well, I have to admit, I was wrong. I never in my wildest dreams expected Vladimir Putin to be willing to agree to this ceasefire.
I am sure that he sees the drawbacks of giving Ukraine a 30-day suspension of hostilities, especially knowing the involvement of the EU, NATO, UK, and US intelligence services.
But, this puts the ball back in Ukraine’s court. Wonder if the media will report on that?
Belle….
I posted the news conference Putin and
Lushenko had 5 hours ago above.
My take is that the ceasefire is accepted…
but the details of what is acceptable and
what needs to be considered….is still in
on the table.
Recommend watching the video.
Nothing is accepted until everything is accepted.
IOW, nothing is agreed until everything is agreed, if it can be agreed.
“Nothing is accepted until everything is accepted”.
Source: a drunk post from Z, Macron or some other Euro Globalist puppet?
Bottom line, while catchy, this statement is reality disconnected.
As intended?
The U.S. demand is for an immediate 30-day ceasefire. Putin has not accepted this demand. His public statement today expressed clear concern over critical details about enforcement of the ceasefire and whether Ukraine would be allowed to rearm and further mobilize its society.
In other words, either Russia’s concerns will be addressed to its satisfaction or there will not be any Russian agreement to an immediate 30-day ceasefire.
That’s where things stand today.
The same is true for ALL parties in the Ukraine/Russia War ie the primary parties, Ukraine and Russia, plus the so called secondary parties in Europe and America.
Negotiations == a sequential, step by step process that involves agreeing to meet,talk and listen in order to determine whether or not to meet again.
All parties are free to end, suspend or pause future negotiation meetings.
Personally, I’m grateful that the online nostradoomers who insisted that Putin would outright refuse to meet with Ukraine’s negotiation team and reject President Trumps peace efforts
were FALSE PREDICTIONS.
MAGA. Less preying and doom spreading. More praying and thanks giving. 😘
What a great opportunity for guessers to reflect on how accurate they were, or were not, to ponder why then to improve.
Fwiw, I would have been totally SHOCKED if Putin HAD rejected President Trump’s invite to have a cease fire meeting with the Kiev Regime; an invite PDJT’s hand picked negotiators announced to the world this week after meeting with Ukraines envoys on Monday.
Mr Putin said. “We Support the ceasefire. But”…………………..
That means No Ceasefire.
Not today. I’d assume Trump has been working on the issues Russia has been concerned with. Rubio openly stated Ukraine would have to say goodbye to land to the East.
If the ukies balk, Russia will keep up the war.
You, again! Always pushing the negative. Are you sure that you’re on the right side of the river?
The “but” is that the cease-fire process is designed to lead to a permanent end to the war!
Doesn’t seem like much of a “but” to me.
“That means No Ceasefire”.
Posting another nostradoomer prediction today, of all days?
😂 😂 😂 😘
Not quite accurate on Russia’s pre-war peace demands. Sundance wrote:
“… and (4) the 4 Donbass regions are accepted by Ukraine/NATO as Russian territory. Again, these were the previous pre-war terms.”
Putin’s demands for eastern Ukraine only required that Crimea (which Russia finally took from the Ottomans, after long conflict, in the 1780s, and thoroughly purged of non-Russian influences since then) be accepted as Russian territory.
For the other Donbas states Putin asked only that they be allowed to choose their own path forward as independent states.
I urge our great friend Sundance to take note of this, because Putin’s offer of independence was actually the ideal solution from the point of view of a properly ethical “rules-based international order,” and offers the best possible path forward still today.
All we needed to before the war was negotiate the meaning of “independence,” insisting that it must mean genuine permanent sovereignty of the people of the Donbas states. The closest available approximation to full sovereignty of the people is majority rule (“popular sovereignty”), with constitutional guarantees for everything necessary to insure honest elections and to block weaponization of powers of government against political opponents.
American republicanism also adds protection for individual rights. Our entire constitutional structure is formulated with the object of securing “the blessings of liberty” (Preamble). But the more basic idea of republican independence is just honest democracy where, as Alexander Hamilton put it: “Representation is imperfect, in proportion as the current of popular favor is checked.”
No keeping opponents off the ballot. No blocking anyone’s speech. And most important, no stuffing of remote ballot drop boxes with millions of harvested mail-in ballots.
Obama of course wanted nothing to do with any honest-election stuff because he was our election-stealer in chief. He is a lifelong totalitarian communist (in addition to being an anti-white racist and an al Qaeda Muslim), and is the one who orchestrated all of the Democrats’ weaponization of the powers of government against American patriots.
Now that he is out and Trump is in, Trump has an opportunity to ask Putin if he is still willing to consider the possibility of letting the Donbas states become independent, and if will be willing to negotiate the meaning of independence in a way that secures genuine sovereignty of the people going forward.
This is the ideal that Trump is trying to secure for America itself: honest elections and the end to weaponization against political opponents, all guaranteed, ideally at the constitutional level.
Putin has not to this point been an advocate of this American ideal of “republican democracy,” and he would certainly still need international and constitutional guarantees that no independent Donbas state would ever join a military alliance against Russia, but with that proviso in place, he would have much to gain from supporting genuine independence.
Look at the enemies he is facing: primarily the EU, an alliance of radical leftist phony democracies who are all madly trying to suppress the populist expressions of their own native populations. Now they are claiming the moral high ground against him, casting him as a pariah.
By embracing genuine republican democracy he would immediately and thoroughly put them to shame, exposing the fraudulence of their own pretensions to legitimate democratic rule as they suppress their own political opponents.
Second he would show that the peace offer he made BEFORE the war was a fair and correct offer by the actual criteria of a moral “rules based international order.” He was not the aggressor, Obama (who together with Victoria Nuland orchestrated the overthrow of the honestly elected Russia-friendly president of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovich, in 2014) was the aggressor, along England and the EU and the anti-Russian elements in Ukraine.
If Putin will join Trump in promoting genuine republican democracy, he switches from pariah to champion of liberty and of everything that is good and right and moral in the world.
That would obviously be great for the world, but it could be great for Putin and Russia too. Kind of like Trump offering to Little Rocket Man that if he just drops China and joins in peace with Trump, then Trump will open every door in the world for him. It’s a good deal, and Trump is the master of the art of the deal.
letting the Donbas states become independent
The two Donbas states plus Kherson, and Zaporozhye voted already to be a part of Russia. They are now constitutionally Russia. They do not want to be independent. They want overwhelmingly to be part of Russia, under Russia’s protection.
If they were independent small states, Ukraine would overrun them and take them because they won’t have the army, navy, air force to fight a militant power like Ukraine.
Independent wouldn’t mean they would be without protection. If Ukraine broke the peace deal then the other participants in the deal and the sponsors of the deal could move to enforce the peace. Russia would obviously be one willing party.
Further, if the Donbas states are set up as the model of how a territory should be governed under a proper “rules based international order” (that is, governed by the popular will of its own people), then it should be easy to coordinate an international defense from those countries that claim to support such an order.
DJT’s best offer is always his first formal offer. Every offer after that becomes increasingly worse until one is ultimately accepted.
Additionally, DJT does NOT bluff ie he doesnt say he will do something that, if forced to, he won’t actually do.
Ditto Putin.
My criticism of my own proposal here is that the brutality of the war which has already consumed these states might make it unworkable. Public feeling is likely to be dominated by perceptions of who is to blame for the devastation, and that subject is ripe for demagoguery and malign media influence (think USAID).
I blame the war squarely on the Obama/Nuland/Soros nexus together with the corrupt uni-party Senators and Congressmen who get kickbacks on foreign aid spending, but those very people have been spending billions of taxpayer dollars directing blame elsewhere.
Having fought yard by yard to take military control of the Donbas states (even if they call it meters), the Russians are not likely to be willing to hand control over to whoever can win the current media war.
That was the Blinken/Sullivan position: that it wasn’t how the actual shooting war was going that matters. All that matters is the media dynamic. If they could win the battle to depict Putin as the villain, then they would win.
That was absurd when there was an actual shooting war being fought on the ground, but that is indeed where they put their efforts. It was all about creating perceptions.
Russia will surely at this point insist that the peace must instead be based on the facts on the ground, along with past facts on the ground, like Catherine the Great taking Crimea from the Ottomans in 1783 (thereby becoming Catherine the Great).
Still, the best outcome would be if the contested territories were to become genuine independent states, enjoying genuine sovereignty of the people in perpetuity. There should at least be recognition that Russia’s peace terms at the beginning of the war were not just reasonable, but were potentially ideal, subject to negotiation over the meaning of “independence.”
Exactly correct
There is still a long road ahead to get to peace. Mainly because the EU and UK don’t want it
President Putin has made clear his stance. He wants to end the war and retain some or all of territories his soldiers have taken, and have lasting peace thereafter.
President Trump also wants an end to the war and have lasting peace. I believe that both Trump and Putin would agree that little z is the main problem standing in the way of that desire.
Of course, there will have to be some reconciliations made.
What I find fascinating in all of this is both Presidents Trump and Putin are alfa males, while z is merely an installed globalist puppet. In other words, z is expendable.
NATO won’t stop the war. They’ve already shown themselves as impotent while at the same time lusting for more war (payed for by U.S.). Nor can Zelensky stop it, having made his views as just as clear, and there is know way Ukrain can become a NATO country.
I’m no diplomat and certainly no president, but I would love to see Trump and Putin form an alliance and force z out of office in exchange for Russia not taking the the whole country. Just end the war altogether. Little z the comedian and his masters, whoever they are, do not want peace.
Ze is not the only one standing in the way of peace. It is the neo-Nazi militias that Ze is so afraid of – who do not want to give up anything and want to erase Russia.
Great news.
This already happened long ago.
Nows the time to watch things play out while Globalist Europhiles screech and media opiners, both mainstream and alt, fret , tsk and/or doom
Here’s Alexander Dugin’s take on Putin’s Kursk visit and what it signifies.
https://www.arktosjournal.com/p/four-or-five-more-regions-for-peace
It’s interesting that he has written a book on President Trump.
The Pieces Process rages on, as Ukraine proves even in its sad ceasefire gambit that they have no intention of seeking peace on realistic sustainable terms.
Exactly, I’m sad to say and President Trump is putting the pressure on Russia (in my post below), not on Ukraine.
The Ukrainians are testing out the compatibility of HIMARS with French targeting data – on civilians, of course. So, in case the US withdraws intel, they will still be able to shell Russia. They are not planning for peace.
Everything that President Putin asked about are sensible concerns about what the US is planning. Who will monitor any violations over a 2000 kilometer front? What will be done about violations? Will Russia be expected just to let the Kursk invaders go, even though they committed crimes? Will the US continue to send weapons throughout?
If there is going to be peace, why would Ukraine want no restrictions on the size of their armed forces? Why would the US continue to send weapons if there is to be peace?
Enjoying the show yet, or nah?
Despite the words suggesting current feels are “sad”, hopefully the actual answer is a yeah rather nah. 😘
MAGA has it’s own peace terms:
No more $$$, weapons, Starlink or targeting to Ukraine!
If Ukraine wants to fight on they are on their own!
Almost as if PDJT is going through the motions while knowing Putin is going to prosecute their reasonable war aims.
Knowing that much more needs to happen before Russia decides they are done.
How does the West guarantee Russia that Ukraine perfidy will be restrained, their Nazis dispatched, their war-machine defanged, their Global Derp State operations erased, and that Russophonic and Russophilic populations are not murdered for sport and revenge? They can’t.
For Heaven’s sake, as PDJT sent a team to negotiate a ceasefire Team Derp sent a barrage of drones to attack Moscow, he hasn’t declaimed that act nor publicly referenced it at all, yet such was grounds in my own eyes for him to have washed his hands of Z-Bag and begun shutting down every possible avenue for the Derps to wage war and provoke Russia with ever more aggressive atrocities.
Western Weasel Words have no power over the Russian mind and Putin is neither amused nor dazed by this ceasefire game.
I agree wholeheartedly. No more nothing for Ukraine. Pay off the US debt, deport the illegal aliens, let us see the JFK, Epstein, assassination attempt files, fix the awful roads, railroads, and airports, build ships in the US, manufacture things in the US, cut US spending, cut the bureaucracy in half, pay off some of our debt, stop inflation.
US has resumed shipments of GLSDB bombs to Ukraine with the upgrades that prevent Russian jamming. This is a $33 billion dollar package that was part of Biden’s Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative.
Also today, President Trump has increased sanctions on Russian oil, gas, and banking by ending the Biden waiver on energy transactions. This means that European countries cannot buy Russian oil or gas without US sanctions. This will cut off all Russian banks from handling oil and gas transactions. It is expected to raise the price of Russian oil by about $5 which will benefit sales of US oil to Europe.
Meanwhile, the Ukrainians using French targeting data, sent a drone deep inside Russia to hit a civilian target.
Ukrainian leadership is saying that in the event of a ceasefire, they will continue to mobilize and train troops. They said they will reject any proposal that doesn’t allow them into the EU or NATO.
I don’t see how any of this is helping a long term peace agreement.
…me neither other than it’s Kabuki Theater to help President Trump look tough for the Bolshevik news media and Democrats.

missile strike on Moscow …or just a
brief mention at all?

Kind of embarrassing 🫤🫤😒😏😒
“Kind of embarrassing”.
Fortunately, as one of my favorite movie characters, Evil Roy Slade (who actually wasn’t evil at all), famously said to the love of his life../..
” don’t worry, YOU can change”.
My feels. My choice. 😘
Didn’t President Trump say he would have big news on Friday?
Is it possibly an energy deal w Russia?
He just lifted the waiver on Russian oil and gas, putting sanctions back on Russian oil and gas. So now there can be no purchase of Russian oil by European countries and payment for Russian oil and gas cannot go through international banking.
Which actually puts pressure on Europe rather than Russia while insulating him from Collective West psyop smear attacks calling him Putin’s Puppet for actually seeking to end the killing and destruction.
“An energy deal with Russia?”.
Not yet. Later.
Friday ie tomorrow, is too soon.
Pacing matters.
