Following a historic peace summit consisting of EU leaders attending the White House, President Donald Trump says arrangements are beginning for a bilateral meeting between the leaders of Russia and Ukraine. If the approach is successful, this could be a significant move toward ending the conflict between the two countries.
President Trump – “I had a very good meeting with distinguished guests, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, of Ukraine, President Emmanuel Macron, of France, President Alexander Stubb, of Finland, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, of Italy, Prime Minister Keir Starmer, of the United Kingdom, Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, Friedrich Merz, President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, and Secretary General of NATO, Mark Rutte, in the White House, which ended in a further meeting in the Oval Office.
During the meeting we discussed Security Guarantees for Ukraine, which Guarantees would be provided by the various European Countries, with a coordination with the United States of America. Everyone is very happy about the possibility of PEACE for Russia/Ukraine.
At the conclusion of the meetings, I called President Putin, and began the arrangements for a meeting, at a location to be determined, between President Putin and President Zelenskyy. After that meeting takes place, we will have a Trilat, which would be the two Presidents, plus myself.
Again, this was a very good, early step for a War that has been going on for almost four years. Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, are coordinating with Russia and Ukraine. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” (LINK)
The “security guarantees” are a sticking point for many of us. From previous statements we can infer President Trump is willing to be a backstop to support the military forces of the EU and other countries. The U.K, France, Germany et al taking the leading role, and the USA is the “in case of emergency break glass” option.
At least that looks like the outline being proposed and organized.
‘We will work with our European allies and non-European countries, by the way, to build such a security guarantee’ — Rubio
‘We’re working on that right now… that will be something that will have to be in place after a peace deal’
Work in progress… ahem! https://t.co/CA1doUCxgB pic.twitter.com/gSoPv9AajX

Every time I see one of these pics of Trump in his comfy chair behind the Resolute Desk facing a half dozen or more dandies, it reminds me of the headmaster dressing down a group of uppity, childish students. There’s no question who’s in charge.
And Georgia Meloni’s facial expressions/body language is priceless! Trump thinks the same as her, but must maintain composure as blathering idiot after blathering idiot express a non-starter position. I can’t wait for Trump’s memoirs regarding his thoughts on Georgia. She’s the real deal.
Really? She looks pissed off to me.
Ask her citizens if she’s the real deal after running on a platform of “Deport the Migrants” then AFTER being elected she folded like a cheap pantsuit allowing the illegal migrants to continue to destroy her country.
Typical flip-flopping European leader although Macron is the top flip-flopper.
THOR III: I agree with you. Meloni is as fake as her Euro-weenie counterparts.
Exactly right about Meloni.
What has Meloni done to deport illegals in her country? Does she have effective provisions in place to prevent further invasion?
Does her government offer generous benefits to those illegals in Italy?
I wouldn’t be too thrilled if I were an Italian citizen or a tourist for that matter.
Yeah, you gotta love Meloni! She can’t hide her feelings as her facial expressions always giver her away! Besides the rolling the eyes picture, I also like the part of the video where she’s obviously laughing whole heartedly about something Trump is saying. No doubt she’s on Trump’s side. Can’t wait for that memoir either.
“Trump, with his character and persistence, will bring order there fairly quickly. And all of them — just watch, it will happen fast — will be sitting obediently at their master’s feet and sweetly wagging their tails,” Putin said,…
https://meduza.io/en/news/2025/02/03/putin-says-e-u-leaders-will-soon-be-sweetly-wagging-their-tails-before-trump
It is kinda hard to see if they are wagging their tails.
Perhaps, PDJT needs a little “cookie” jar of treats for his desk.
That photo kills it.
These EU chumps all look like direct reports called into the boss’s office because he’s pissed.
Daddy Trump holds court
Yep, and they thought they were performing the intervention.
Yes, they are not a happy bunch.
It looks like they would all like to be somewhere else, anywhere else.
“Peace for our time” or an epic event with potential for a solution to a long-standing conflict?
The contrast between US administrations is stunning, and how anyone could not see the corruption and back-door manipulation at work from subversive powers in the previous DeepSwampState speaks to the power of propaganda.
Prayers for wisdom empowering all people involved.
It is absolutely ridiculous that this gaggle of Eurotwits is taken seriously at all by Trump. Why is Von der Leyen even there? She’s only the figurehead of another layer of European bureaucracy and no country in particular. In every other case of Trump peace making the only parties involved were the two direct belligerents. Will I ever live to see the US finally and for the last time extricate itself from the curse of foreign conflicts that has cost titanic amounts of blood and treasure to this benighted land?
PDJT is very wise to keep open relations with all nations in this complex world.
One never knows when a deal can be made that will benefit USA.
Ursula von der Leyen
Minister for Defence, German Federal Government
In office: 17 December 2013 – 17 July 2019
Under Chancellor Angela Merkel
Ursula von der Leyen: in office during the 2014 Maidan Uprising, possible organizer of poking Russia with a stick, and confident and secret keeper of Chancellor Angela Merkel, knowing that Chancellor Merkel had fibbed regarding the Minsk accords. Yet von der Leyen never created a credible German defense, despite the Russia risk they are crying about now.
von der Leyen failed upwards, from Germany’s Minister of Defence, to President of the EU, another institution under her control that has no military deterrent.
von der Leyen supports the EU censorship.
Cicero, I join you in calling out the EU President, Ursula Von der Leyen, by name. Carry on.
I call out the EU President, Ursula Von der Leyen, as being negligent while Germany’s Minister for Defence, and for never providing any defense for the German people against the Oligarchs. Chancellor Merkel was close to President Obama at that time. As far as I’m concerned, with non-elected EU President Ursula von der Leyen, we are at ground zero for political enemies of the USA. She probably knows all about the efforts against President Trump, too.
Well stated!
“….confident and secret keeper of Chancellor Angela Merkel, knowing that Chancellor Merkel had fibbed regarding the Minsk accords. Yet von der Leyen never created a credible German defense, despite the Russia risk they are crying about now.”
Many would say she did her very best to destroy German defense capabilities. It is rather interesting, isn’t it?
Thank you!!
Amazing the number of Americans who have never even heard of the violation of the Minsk Accords.
Or of the 2014 Obama/McCain/Graham/Klobuchar Maidan Coup.
Or of the Ukraine territories in dispute voting years ago to return to Russian rule.
The Ukranian Azov Nazi Battalions killed tens of thousands of Russian-speaking Ukranians in those ‘disputed’ regions before Putin stopped it.
Oh. And those 20,000 children Ukraine claims were ‘stolen’ and taken into Russia? They were rescued from the Ukranian adrenochrome farms and child-sex trafficking hubs coordinated by Zelensky’s wife.
No, they will not be returned to the Ukranian “government”.
Thank you a million times for mentioning the children and what was happening to them – I think that’s a huge reason why Putin launched the SMO, he won’t bear a satanic pirate’s den feeding on Slavic people.
That’s also why the attacks on President Trump – he’s quietly busting the satanic child rings here as well. They are both the source and ultimate goal of Baphomet power.
While Merkel opened the floodgates to Muslim invaders – very, very interesting indeed.
85% of the “asylum seekers” are Muslim, yet 56 Muslim countries refuse to take them.

(The one that did had its Christian Orthodox churches in Damascus bombed 2-3 years in a row on Christmas Day by our best ally, and then was taken over by Jihadi allies of our best ally, the “beacon of democracy” that doesn’t allow equal democracy. Funny how they bombed a Catholic church last week. Almost as if our best ally organized the entire Migration through its HIAS heart and started wars and Arab Springs to stampede them into Europe.)
She’s there because President Trump wanted her there. What Trump is doing is diplomacy at it’s finest. He’s very good at bringing people in to is sphere and making them cooperate with him, or haven’t you noticed. As far as foreign conflicts and the U.S. goes probably not. IMHO we’ve gone past that point a long time ago and in many ways have emboldened our enemies so as to heighten the need to keep them in control.
Von der Leyen represents the big investors, the ones really running the EU…
energy meeting. yes, you are not in this club. but you can measure it in barrels of oil and gas. Russia takes a seat at the market making tablel.
ONE OF THE OUTCOMES OF STAGE 5, revolution, transfer of power.
this revolution is televised.
consider the implications…energy Equals power. negotiating Nash rules in the modern age advanced by none other than new york American born and bred patriot who is a billionaire AND THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITIED STATES…mark that. the world, lets not pretend to notice the power or POTUS in this agency.
that Man, yes THAT MAN created this. and it has exceeded all expectations and even the desperate grovelings of the secret police spy state…..\

and WHY WOULD HE DARE TO DO THIS?
for personal gain? obviously not. he has galactic sized holdings.
for ego. obviously not. he has one of, if not the most beautiful woman who in not only extraordinarily stunning, but is equally spiritied and based.
the for what? what really makes Trump move?
justice. moral imperative.
to know the truth, to recognize it, and to place AMERICA, THE PEOPLE, the very foundation is what makes us all very real (the sacrifices of those who came before us to fight against the dark to reveal a better world, more illuminated and excited for a future absent the curse of Satan! Yes he is our champion, appointed IN THIS TIMELINE to be the warrior of a paradigm shift.
next up?
say no to transhumanism. Biological natural gestation protection laws.
say no to “artificial intelligence”…an obvious oxymoron that should be demoted as the most stupid idea know to a human race
say not to woke, dei, gay, homo, queer, binary, and all other non natural sexual desires. and the reasons why should be obvious: perversion of a truth is against the law of God. It is just that simple. You can extend this to lying, pretending, commission of fact, and even ignorance. Our Purpose, we THE PEOPLE, is to advise against sin. that is also that simple. do this and obey God!/
I am on the fence with cypto “currency”. It does appear to have that certain risk of being non opaque to the central state.
regitiger, your social score is rated low because you have expressed negative opinions in a public space about the Blockchain and also against the central state that has “invested” significant deposits into bitcoin. As such, you are not longer trusted to make investments..here at x. y, an z.
for all the arguments against cash…I can tell you my chances of being denied cash for my opinions are far less than what can happen if you decide to challenge the blockchain.
everyone really really really need to understand what is about the happen.
thus trillions upon trillions of wealth financing these super Uber data AI centers are not for some altruistic future. No, they are investments similar to ad revenue but far more invasive to your personal freedom of informational…they data centers will create you are the product in ways that even will make bill gates blush.
examine the reality of what is happening right now. In just a few years, many of you, my good friends will be whistling in the wind, waiting and never receiving a reply.
a different kind of death awaits us all,

Crypto currency is the beany baby of the century, except at the end of the day, you won’t even have a trash bag of stuffies for your “investment”.
Crypto is a string of pseudo-random numbers that I have and you don’t, and I’m telling you it’s valuable because it cost money to calculate the number. That’s called artificial scarcity, it doesn’t convey any intrinsic value. We are in the ponsi phase of crypto ownership, except it’s being bundled into funds and exchanges and fractional shares and whatever other financial instrument names you want to give it… someone will be left holding an empty bag of digital nothing when the music stops.
Not me. I a’int buying their fake money.
The crypto enthusiast like to rail on dollars as fiat because it has no inherent value. Well……few recognize that crypto also has no inherent value. Don’t listen to those people.
Things have value only because people believe it has value. Gold only has value if there are people who have needed items (ie food/shelter) and are willing to trade it for the gold. If you only have gold, and no one around you wants to trade your gold for the food/shelter they have…..well your gold is useless.
Right now, dollars and bitcoin can easily be converted into thing that you need. food, shelter, energy.
Dollars can be manipulated by the gov because they control the supply of it.
Bitcoin is hard to manipulate because the total supply is fixed. Although, there are some whales that could probably crash the price of bitcoin.
Gold is hard to manipulate because the total supply does not change much.
Each person has to decide on how they will store their wealth.
Regitiger have you seen this opportunity titled
“Treasury issues request for comment related to the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for Establishing U.S. Stablecoin (GENIUS) Act”
that was put out by the Treasury the other day?
I see this as the perfect opportunity for as many citizens as possible to swamp the Treasury dept. with our concerns about all things crypto, AI and digitization of all things federal, where it concerns our Fourth Amendment, among all the other, rights.
here’s the link which provides the how to for submitting comments:
https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0228
oh dear, just realized this is all off topic.
Sorry for that everyone.
The one thing I didn’t hear this time is Eurotrash talk about Ukraine into NATO. That was a major sticking point. Europe can provide security guarantees, no NATO entry, and we already provide security to Europe. We’ll see.
This agreement could “backdoor” Ukraine as a NATO member in all but name, which is a way of “pretending,” this time pretending Ukraine isn’t a NATO member.
This is all about the BLACK SEA to Putin. His first solution to countries surrounding the Black Sea joining NATO is when he suggested RUSSIA should join. If Ukraine went NATO, Russia could be barred from the Black Sea and denied port facilities by the NATO countries, including tiny Caucasus countries, that would surround the Black Sea. I don’t know if Russia still has a naval base in Syria, but just a year ago they did, and the Black Sea is the fastest route by sea for Russian ships to go there. If Russia had been let into NATO, Ukraine could join and not cause a ripple, and that would be a better “security guarantee” against invasion by Russia than what we are considering now.
Such a simple solution that violent predjudice prevented.
The base/port at Tartus. The new Syrian government terminated the usage agreement with the Russian Federation (signed in 2017) at the beginning of this year. There are no Russian Navy ships based there anymore.
lol. I have nuthin but LOL. These arrogant little twits!
I’m not keen on “security guarantees” either. That request came from Blackrock et al, as they swoop in like vultures to “rebuild” Ukraine, effectively taking the country away from the people and then renting it back to them for the next 40-50 years. They want guarantees that nobody will roll in there and force the grifters out of Ukraine.
I get the sense thaat Pres. Trump’s feeling is that the very presence of clearly US economic interests (US vultures) will be enough to deter Putin from rolling over anything. That would not be like a Central American country wanting to nationalize Dole Pineapple or Standard Oil. That would be a major response, depending upon who is in the White House.
Putin isn’t motivated by petty things, “The Blob” is.
Look at each of the trip-wires leading up to the Russian SMO:
The West has been poking the bear since the wall fell
excellent point
Evidence of The Grand Pretend: No mention of security guarantees for Russia, especially from tried and true provocateurs from “The West”, meaning from within the greater District of Columbia area.
I’d like to see a meeting like that about the dismantling of banks in the current form. Then tear apart the owners and rulers who devised the plan to enslave nations in debt.
We except it all as if it was our role to be ruled over, a king like Saul. No, it’s time for these people to be removed.
These wars are their doing, debt, shots, riots, abortion, all come from the same evil group. To big you say? So who is God? I can tell you it’s not with his blessing they rule it’s our permission.
I like the look of Trump’s people behind the Europeans. Steven Miller . Even Caroline Leavitt. Could you imagine Kareen Jean Pierre?
Don’t forget Wally Nuatto! I could not figure out who was between Hegseth and Vance
I believe it was Steve Witkoff.
OMGosh!!!
not a happy looking bunch in that pic look at Meloni arms crossed..
She misses Elon…
Look at the 13-plane escort AF1 had departing (?) Alaska posted on FB by Dan Scavino.
Just awesome.
https://fb.watch/BA5HJSqqr1/?
Very impressive!
Would it be possible to post a pic? I’m not on fb, and I don’t think I’m alone in that…
I can’t get the knack of posting photos. So sorry
I live in Alaska and that doesn’t look like Alaska to me, I might be wrong though depending on where the pic was taken from.
Yikes! Dan scavino posted it. I assumed it was Alaska since that was the trip he was on, but he didn’t make a comment so I can’t verify the location. Wherever it is, it’s a neat photo.
“War is a punishment for Man’s sin”(Our Lady of Fatima)
Let’s never forget the spiritual dimension surrounding all this.
God’ Permissive Will
( what He allows) can allow failure , for a greater eventual good, though he doesn’t desire evil.
Or , He can bless undertaking for success (Positive Will, what He wants),if there is good will and a turning
( conversion) to Him
( first individually , and then collectively… as nations).
Let’s hope we are at the latter juncture, though I have my reservations that is the case now…
Looking at this picture, I’ve begun to realize how foolish Macron is as a leader…
Trump is beating a dead horse, Zelenskyy is not the legitimate President any more than Mahmoud Abbas is. They have both stayed on past the point when there was supposed to be an election. The Russian terms which have been known for years have not been accepted. Ukraine/NATO have lost the war. Nobody shows up to a meeting to have a food fight. The EU is not a factor in the Ukraine war. How much Kabuki theater do we have to watch? NATO is trying the Minsk play again. Security guarantees? That won’t end the war. NATO wants a win. Something like the frozen war in Korea.Good luck with that. Is it possible that Russia isn’t doing as well as some commentators have been saying ?Ukraine recently retook some villages using tanks and robots, because they are short of actual men.It’s an Agatha Mystery to anyone in the peanut gallery.
Yea, me thinks the meat grinder has cost Ukraine “actual” men which is the point and now the polls in that country are completely flipped to ending this damn thing. That is a major problem for Zelensky if he doesn’t end it. Henceforth, no elections at this moment.
The EU certainly is a factor because they are buying our weapons and selling them to Ukraine. It is not Kabuki Theatre when thousands are lost every week.
NATO is not getting a win in this war.
Ukraine can take tracks of land all them want. They ain’t getting Crimea and other parts back. President Trump made that very clear.
Didn’t Russia state repeatedly that NATO cannot be part of security guarantees?
Interesting the 4 sitting directly across from the President and Z-Man is not one of them.
The Protocol of Seating at these types of meeting is always of significant importance.
This so called future meeting between little Z and Putin…just those two? Can you imagine how THAT will go over? Hopefully it will happen so Putin can very directly inform the little comic what the terms WILL be or else. But the puppet won’t agree, will storm out and pitch a tantrum with his Euro cabal buddies, and then blow up stuff in Moscow to ramp up the war again.
This is not a breakthrough. This is a trap.
The next step MUST include President Trump with little Z and Putin. NO SMARMY NATO NURDS, NO EURO CABAL.
The Euro weenies sit there and pontificate on how great Trump is, how only he opened this door to negotiate with Russia. It’s all gerbil talk to feed his ego, while they push their own agenda. American Security Guarantees….nothing more than tying America into the whole mess.
Yes the Euros are laying it on thick. They’re all vehement anti-Trumps, except for maybe Maloni. Rutte was going on and on last night in his effusive praise for Trump. It just rings hollow. These people are unscrupulous and completely untrustworty.
I know, I can’t imagine a meeting between just Putin and zelensky. zelensky is so far outside of Putin’s league it’s unimaginable– some two-bit comedian/trans dancer meeting with the president of Russia who obviously has a vast knowledge of Russian and world history, along with KGB experience, and diplomatic skills boggles the mind. I just don’t see this going well. If anything good comes of it, it will, without a doubt, be a miracle!
Retired Magistrate here: Please, President Trump, no boots on the ground in Ukraine. No more Korea’s or Viet Nam’s where there is no “win”; only dead bodies and ruined lives.
I am sick of sacrificing our young men and women so the warmongers can get richer. With the United States being the security guarantee it is clear that we will have boots on the ground and we are looking at another Korea or Viet Nam. This isn’t peace; this is just another way for a select few to get rich.
May God grant wisdom to those involved with hearts of compassion and place the needs of their people above whatever desires fuel the continued killings.
All of their praise for President Trump but over the top (fake) is well deserved. It is part of the plan to stall until congress is back in session. This will give the warpigs in the senate a chance to throw a wrench in the gears.
Yup
We shall see. It’s hard to get past the Trump happy talk and his blinkered vocabulary–he seems to have five favorite words. On the other hand, his presidency has so far been amazing. This backstop talk gives me great pause. Trump cannot possibly believe or take the feckless impotent lying Europeans at their word. They have girl boss armies and guns that don’t shoot. They are cowards down to their genome. All they want, and if this isn’t clear to Trump, it’s clear to his advisors, is America on the hook. Anyone who thinks American troops can get into an actual skirmish with the Russians and not end up living in a world of nuclear winter is a fool. And this, America on the hook, is Zelensky’s dream of dreams.
The events of the last few days clearly shiw who’s in charge. The symbolism with President Putin in Alaska: first, the Alaska Elmendorf location, the flyover, the press conference and no response to press questions, the warm greeting if Putin, all show that event was planned and executed exactly as President Trump wanted it and in a way to ensure future success with Purin and the EU while marginalizing Zelensky.
Then the White House meeting yesterday with the schoolmaster charm of Trump the teacher and the EU students. Zelensky needed hand holding by the EU who obviously knew they had to behave in order to gave any influence given Trump’s leadership and progress with Putin. They did by praising Trump, no silly NATO discussion, no inane cease fire insistence; the best they could get was some security discussion. Trump held further calls/meetings with Putin and Zelensky as the “Trump ” cards as everyone knew it. He has his plan and he’s doing it his way, not their’s. What an amazing leader he is.
Considering one of the reasons this war started, I believe the best “security guarantee” would be:
No NATO troops on Russia’s border.
It looks like Dean Werner (Animal House) just put that crew on double secret probation.
What if the security guarantee the United States puts into place works both ways?
It wouldn’t be the first time armed neutrality was used to great effect.
Is this the new version of the bank vault picture?
Is this the new version of the bank vault picture?
Z is disposable. Trump and Putin are not. I would scrutinize every aspect, every feature, every piece of cloth on his person to make sure that z does not detonate from a hidden bomb, carry lethal radiation, or release a killer virus and murder Trump and Putin. This meeting with Putin and Trump is golden opportunity to eliminate these leaders.
If z is wearing a suit, as instructed by Trump, examine every stitch.
Z is nothing and is nothing to lose.
Losing Trump or Putin leads to world war 3.
This is only happening due to PDJT’s extraordinary efforts! So amazing.
US boots on the ground? Not seeing it. Likely be something like if ukr is attacked some small European countries will defend it in a limited capacity not under the NATO umbrella, and the US would probably provide weapons and intel as they’re currently doing.
“Security guarantee” is an ambiguous word that may give ukr the ability, mentally and politically to give up the land
With all of these leaders gathered together, it may have been interesting to ask them all whose interests they represented and who controlled them. Although they are all the leaders of nominal democracies, it is clear from their behaviour that none have any intention of ever protecting the interests of or responding to the wishes of their own citizens.
They seemed to have got what they wanted. All but us.
Funny!
Zelensky’s Shopping Nightmare – Trump & Kim Can’t Stop Laughing!
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/YkUMMHGTnX4?feature=share
I can’t wait for this to work out and John Bolton strokes out. Victor Davis Hanson, Blaine Holt and Sundance are pretty much the only accurate sources out there. (Sorry if I missed anyone else..) The msm coverup of EU/Ukraine corruption is getting really old.
A visit to the Oval Office across the pond is good for these people. Might possibly get them to understand who exactly bears the brunt for security on the euro continent. Trump is dragging them kicking and screaming to that realization. Sugar daddies don’t last forever.
My concern about “security guarantees’ are our troops will be there when globalist will create a false flag attack blaming Russia. Then what. PT has been fooled in the past about who was the true aggressor.
our presidents have limited terms. Its the future that scares me. Once there security, we will never leave but be drawn into war. Its just a matter of time.
I don’t understand how a lasting peace can be negotiated by President Putin and Zelenskyy, who has exceeded his term in office and not scheduled new elections.
While true Ukraine is at war, is there a lawful provision that makes Zelenskyy the legitimate leader of Ukraine? If the war is not officially ended can Z stay on indefinitely?
That might be sufficient motivation on Zelenskyy’s part to reject a peace deal.
this is not the same tune that Trump sang many weeks ago, so all I can say to this is what everybody I know is saying about him:
TACO
there is a simple solution Trump is afraid to implement because he’s afraid of the CIA
The solution is no more money to Ukraine, no weapons, no nothing !
Clearly there could never have been such a meeting with EU leaders organized by Joe Biden. A complete non-starter.
Greetings. Just wondering … could someone identify all the participants in the oval office picture with Trump, Zelensky, European leaders, and Trump team members. Thanks. Got most of them but annoyingly don’t know a few.
Love the website.
A photo of the weak and defeated. Luv it.
MAGA!
