The Duran: Episode 1702. Good Sunday listening. Enjoy.
The key takeaway from the this video: The Biden regime is trying to force Zelensky into negotiating with Russia and really don’t care what the outcome of the negotiations are. It wants an off-ramp from this war.
Thanks Kazan! Two sentences. Simple, easy to remember.
Kazan is the best!
I’m a bit too wordy but here it goes....
At the UN meeting, Zelensky said negative things about Russia and pushed for escalation.
Biden spoke but this time did not say that the US would back the Ukraine ‘for as long as it takes’.
Normally there is coverage of the UN meeting but this time, almost no coverage other than Milley announcing he’s retiring.
Poland and Zelensky are now trading insults. I’d read previously that Z was suing Poland over grain import/export and Poland scolded Z for that. Now POland says it will no longer give arms to Z.
Both men (video) believe that the Biden regime’s handlers would have had to have given Poland the green light to go after Zelensky like that, so that the US appears to be using Poland to pressure Zelensky to go to the negotiating table with Russia.
American attention is being shifted toward possible war with China and friction with Russia (apart from the Ukrainian situation).
Zelensky’s peace negotiations require Russia to leave every millimeter of Ukrainian land and past vast sums of reparations for damage done etc. so it’s not going to happen. Russia doesn’t have an incentive to back down.
Nuland is everywhere pushing for escalation.
The US wants to save face by having Zelensky be the one to call for negotiations, as if America always stood by their ‘man’.
Mercouris (Sp?) thinks this might be the beginning of the end as pressure is on Zelensky to negotiate and support is drifting away. However, he notes that Nuland and neocons are pushing for escalation so it’s not clear what they will do to make that happen.
Darn near perfect ransomnote. Also, Blinken has stopped believing in Nuland’s radical neocon ways and has moved to Sullivan’s more flexable neocon ways...dump the Uke war because we need to antagonize China.
Hopefully the Canadian Parliament standing ovations will be his last. I don’t get it.
Basically, the Ukraine War is not winnable for the Neocons, as they’re learning that trying to beat 10 year old Russian weapons systems with 50 year old Cold War junk is simply not going to work, regardless of how much one may hate Russia.
So they need a ‘pause’ in this war through November, 2024, or else Trump’s 10 point lead will expand even more. The problem, of course, is that Russia FULLY UNDERSTANDS the bind that the Neocons are in and has no reason at all to help them...so the Neocons are hosed.
