Vlad gave his answer to peace, Mr. President: We must re-arm Ukraine
NY Post ^ | 7/5/2025 | NY Post Editorial Board

Mr. President, we know you understand that the primary obstacle to peace in Ukraine is Russia’s aggression.

You said you were “disappointed” in the conversation with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, and that you “don’t think he’s looking to stop.”

Putin again insisted he was unwilling to commit to a ceasefire until the “root causes” of the conflict were addressed.

For Vlad, the “root cause” is the existence of Ukraine.

He followed your call with the largest drone and missile strike of the war, killing at least one.

So why, Mr. President, is your administration punishing Ukraine?

The Pentagon has halted the anti-missile and drone weapons needed to protect the civilians of Kyiv. You remember the desperation on the face of the Ukrainian reporter you touchingly spoke to in the Netherlands, her fears for her husband and her family.

Why are we threatening to abandon her?

There is a belief, being pushed by twisted ideologues, that helping Ukraine is somehow hurting the United States, and not in our best interest. This couldn’t be further from the truth.

Officials claim we have a weapons shortage, but many of these arms were already allocated — some were already in Poland.

Ukraine is paying for them, partly from seized Russian assets and European grants, a stimulus for our industries to make more.

In fact, our military can use that money — and the intelligence it is gathering from Ukraine’s successful resistance — to make better drones and anti-missile technology.

It builds the foundation of the Golden Dome.

But most importantly, Ukraine’s fate sends a message to the world about America. Russia is not an economic superpower to be unlocked. It is a dying terrorist state. Putin is willing to spend the blood of his people in a last grasp for empire.

Antagonizing President Trump didn’t work out for Hamas and Iran. Putin should have been paying attention. FAFO.

Tell your mom to tell you to tell Tucker to tell The Putin to tell Trump to tell Khamenei to tell Netanyahu to tell Macron to tell Starmer to tell Kaja Kallas to tell Friedrich Merz to tell Lukashenko to tell Ursula von der Leyen to tell Little Zee to surrender.

President Trump is going to end Putin’s war.

President Trump is going to end your daily mugasm, mucus.

Did President Trump say he is sending American troops to Ukraine? If so, I missed that part.

Your attention was focused on your Special Ukraine sock.

President Trump laughed at Tucker Carlson’s constant WW3 hysteria, too.

I'm old enough to remember that you took the day off Free Republic when Trump won in November, and didn't celebrate with the rest of us, EVER.

After you got "new guidance" from your MIC propaganda handlers, you came back waving your Trump doll at us for Ukie propaganda purposes.

More HIMARS and 155 mm cluster shells as well air to air missiles.

No 155s for you!

but when someone demands arming Ukraine with everything we have, they need to spell out the likely and the possible results.

A mugasm, and a soiled Special Ukraine sock.

Alexander said yesterday that he believes 155s and HIMARS are off the menu.

nathanbedfraud: Now as we tire of it, we will abandon Ukrainians who have died for it.

Shut the war talk, neocon.

But I do not believe that party animus, no matter how justified even when directed at Democrats, excuses America from honoring its commitments.

Loaded language.

BoJo the UK clown made the commitment. AutoPen's autopen never made a viable commitment.

Whole lot of bloviating from old Nate trying to sweet-talk us into pouring more money into Little Zee’s offshore accounts...

Is your side declaring war on President Trump on Monday?

tell your mom to put the kiddies to bed instead of sending them to the front.

In contrast, 83% of Democratic Party supporters said they back continued assistance to Ukraine.

Also, 100% of Democratic Party supporters didn't celebrate Trump's victory in November with us, and neither did mucus.

And don’t forget, we pressured Ukraine into giving up its nukes in the 1990’s when the Soviet Union dissolved. And in exchange, e also gave them some security guarantees if I’m not mistaken.

>>”The United States and NATO assured Russia that Ukraine would never be part of NATO to get a desired commitment from Russsia. That pledge was broken which Putin used to justify his invasion of Ukraine.”

And yet it wasn’t really broken. There was talk about accepting Ukraine into NATO, but there’s always been talk about that. It was far from imminent.

That was why Putin acted. He did not want to wait until it was accomplished. NATO has a pact, when one is attacked they are all attacked.

Putin will regret not working with Trump on a peace deal. Putin is undercutting everything that Russia claimed was the reason for the war. It was really just a greedy and bloody land grab all along.

“It was the excuse he used.”

It seems to me that some posters on this site are offended by Putin’s moral impurity and imperfections.

That is the way it is and trying to right his wrongs is futile. His ilk dominate human history.

Tell me, do you think that Obama is more honest than Putin?

Or Clinton? Or Biden? Or Comey?
