Kremlin seeks clarification on US stance over potential troop deployment to Ukraine
Anadolu News Agency ^ | 2/14/2025 | Elena Teslova

The Kremlin on Friday called for clarification on recent remarks by US Vice President JD Vance regarding the possible deployment of American troops to Ukraine and new anti-Russian sanctions, saying these statements introduce “new elements” in Washington’s position.

Speaking at a press briefing in Moscow, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Russia expects further explanation during upcoming contacts with US officials.

"We have not heard such formulations before, they have not been expressed previously," Peskov said. "Naturally, during the very contacts we discussed, we hope to receive further clarification."

In an interview with the US media, Vance said the option of sending the US military to Ukraine "remains under consideration" by Washington in case Moscow refuses to resolve the conflict. He added that the US could use both "economic and military leverages" against Russia.

I sure hope so. I did not vote for joining in a land war in Europe , especially where we have no national interests.

If he’s so Gung ho he can go fight for Z. Other than him I don’t want any Americans sacrificed for the Eurofags and their war. It’s their problem, not ours.

Trump has kept both the hawks and the doves in his camp.

Eventually, there will have to be a clarification on our foreign policy towards Russia/Ukraine.

“Vance was talking out his a$$ and will be corrected shortly.”

I hope so... He has no right to counter Trump’s agenda. And Trump absolutely does not want to send boots on the ground because there is no need if he ends the war.

This is Vance trying to speak for the perpetual war MIC agenda. I called this long ago. Vance is more loyal to the MIC and intelligence agencies than he is Trump. And we are going to see more of this from him in the future.

FYI, Andalou news agency is a major news organization out of Turkeye.

ChatGPT says they have been noted by journalism in general as having a profound bias in favor of the Turkish govt and its positions.

It’s probably just a gambit to keep Putin off balance with what we “could” do. At least I sure hope so. I don’t support ANY men or women fighting and dying for Ukraine.

For Zeepers, the more body bags, the better.

Just cut off the supply of money and weapons and the problem solves itself.

No, he worded it deliberately. It’s call negotiations, you always start it by stating you’re willing to go all in, it’s the same as the Russians threatening to use nuclear weapons.

Both sides know the other side is probably bluffing, but even a .1% chance of it being real is enough to keep the other side from going too far out of line.
