Putin says he is ready to end war as fighting with Ukraine is 'tragedy'

Russian President Vladimir Putin has said Moscow is ready to end the war in Ukraine, branding it a "tragedy".

The Kremlin chief, who sent his troops into Ukraine last February, blamed Volodymyr Zelensky for the continued violence.

Putin is reportedly poised to use his speech at an upcoming G20 meeting to urge world leaders to work out a strategy for ending the war.

In a virtual meeting on Wednesday, the Russian president said: “Military actions are always a tragedy. And of course, we should think about how to stop this tragedy.

Ukrainian President Zelensky signed a decree in October 2022 declaring that peace talks between his country and Putin are "impossible".

Putin has also discussed wider geopolitical issues, saying that economic activity around the world is moving toward Asia.

He added that Russia had shipped grain to Africa free of charge, and emphasised the country’s willingness to contribute to global climate and development goals.

Western observers have suggested that Putin is trying to bring African countries into Russia's sphere of influence.

Zelensky admitted on Wednesday that his troops face a “difficult” winter as Kyiv's men look to defend against Russian attacks.

He said: "Difficult weather, difficult defence on the Lyman, Bakhmut, Donetsk and Avdiivka fronts."

The terms will be much harsher for the Ukes than what they had negotiated in March of ‘22. Of course, DC torpedoed that first peace process.

I think if the 2020 election had not been stolen, President Trump and President Putin would have conspired to put an end to that war by the spring of 2022, and on terms that would have been acceptable to Ukraine and to most other countries.

With FJB in the White House the war has continued to take the lives of tens of thousands of combatants and drained billions of dollars out of the U.S. economy. Stolen elections can have very negative consequences.

OK.

Withdraw your army from Ukraine ... and that includes Crimea. You started it, Vlad ... it ends when you take your army out of your neighbor's country. The war you started ends when you quit attacking.

Anything less, and we know you're just another lying sack of shit, Vlad.

They said dead. He used to be dying of multiple diseases, then a couple weeks ago he was dead and had his girlfriend killed and buried with him.

I don't think the war would have started. Trump would have put his foot on Ukraine's throat regarding their Donbass offensive.

It’s devolved into a pissing match between P and Z, with both of them knowing to lose means their death.
