Summary

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that excluding Ukraine from US-Russia ceasefire talks is very dangerous and undermines peace efforts.

He urged more detailed discussions between Kyiv and Washington, stressing that Russia’s refusal to make concessions prolongs the conflict and hinders any realistic ceasefire negotiations.

Zelenskyy emphasized that robust US sanctions and military support can pressure Russia while calling for essential security guarantees, including NATO membership.

He also mentioned a French proposal for European forces in Ukraine and urged US Secretary Rubio to visit immediately to witness the conflict’s devastation firsthand.

    But it worked out so well for Czechoslovakia back in the day! Hitler and the Entente decided that giving Germany the Sudetenland was a reasonable price to avoid war and the appeasement worked and everyone was happy forever.

    The people of a nation should always be included in the discussion on the future of it.

    Americans, Russians, and Chinese think we the rest are beneath them and subject to their dick swinging, violence, and theft while nobody dares object.

    They are bullies. Old as time.

    Ukraine should be under no obligation to adhere to a negotiation about its own fate when two Warmongeirng, Untrustworthy, Imperialistic actors are speaking about them, without them.

    this is the type of shit you start making preparations for an Underground army for. like the Poles did in the 40s. Prepare for perpetual war against the aggressor.

        I agree, not even a video of Trump tearing pages from the Bible, using it to roll-up a joint, and smoke alongside Satan while discussing how he will relinquish his voters wellbeing and souls to him will make Republicans change their views.

      It would just be dismissed as AI now. Everything like that will be dismissed as AI.
