The Prime Minsters of Poland, Slovenia and the Czech Republic have departed on a train bound for Kyiv to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal.

The train with the leaders on board departed before 9 a.m. local time, the head of the chancellery of the Prime Minister of Poland, Michal Dworczyk, said Tuesday.

Traveling to the Ukrainian capital is Poland's Mateusz Morawiecki and his deputy Jarosław Kaczyński, Slovenia's Janez Janša and the Czech Republic's Petr Fiala.

The purpose of the visit is "to confirm the unequivocal support of the entire European Union for the sovereignty and independence of Ukraine and to present a broad package of support for the Ukrainian state and society," a government spokesperson said.

And do they think the Russians won’t bomb the train because they’re untouchable? Wow. I could see a meeting closer to Poland and done in secret. But, no, just wave a red flag in front of a bull...

This reminds me of how reporters think they can wander through a riot, and nobody will touch them because they’re reporters.

I was thinking perfect setup for a false flag attack. Then WW-III.

Hopefully, they will pressure Zelensky to compromise and end the fighting.

They are trip wires. You know what will be the result if Russians bomb them. Russians can detain them, though.

Anyway better not touch trip wires.

Where is LTC Vindman when we need him? And his twin brother?

He had all the answers, and now he’s gone.

Marie Yavanovitch? George Kent? Fiona Hill?

They all got their wish, Trump removed. Ukraine is now a pile of ashes.

You're right, that is the downside risk. The upside advantage might be they can add weight to negotiations and even provide a face-saving event for Putin to agree to a cease-fire which gets extended and ultimately becomes some sort of deal.

What should that compromise comprise?

I think the Russians have proven that the West can’t decide what’s best for them. Only they decide and they have a completely different thought process. We have proven we can’t predict what they’ll do. Going into a war zone is not a smart move.

Bingo! The Poles especially see what the warmongers in the US State Department are up to. Remember the destabilizing lies told about Poland sending Migs to Ukraine? Total made up BS meant to widen the war. Putin and Zelenskyy are negotiating and apparently are making progress. I’m assuming these PMs will tell Ukraine (as if they don’t already realize it) to hurry up and reach a deal before the slimy American warmongers in DC blow up Ukraine, Belarus and large chunks of Poland and Russia.

Maybe they want to reframe the negotiation. It is no longer between Russia and Ukraine but between Russia and Nato.
This will even out the power balance in negotiation.

Nah. They’re just getting together to decide who’s next on Putin’s little trip down Memory Lane.

Can you imagine the rage going through Zolenkys mind. Your country has been invaded, without cause, war crimes are being committed, your cities ate being flattened, and the 3 stooges come into town to tell you to negotiate a settlement? I’d be bombing the train myself.
