U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Ukraine and Russia Keith Kellogg said Saturday that a peace plan for the two warring nations could come within days or weeks.
“I’m on Trump time,” Kellogg told delegates at a fringe event at the Munich Security Conference, referring to U.S. President Donald Trump’s famed fast-moving decision making.
“He’ll ask you to do this job today and he’ll want to know tomorrow why isn’t it solved,” said Kellogg, a key negotiator for Ukraine and allied nations in the recently tabled peace talks.
“You got to give us a bit of breathing space and time, but when I say that, I’m not talking six months, I’m talking days and weeks,” he said.
Kellogg said there was currently a “dual-track” approach to peace talks, with U.S. representatives liaising with Russia, and separately with Ukraine and allied nations. Kellogg, for his part, said he was working on behalf of the latter grouping and insisted — contrary to earlier U.S. suggestions — that both Ukraine and Europe must be a part of those talks.

Have you decided to fight, or are you still hiding under your bed?
If it’s only a Trump-Russia plan, and not a Russia-Ukraine plan, it will, at the end of the day, look like the plan with the Taliban, which essentially handed Afghanistan to them. Yes, Biden botched the execution of the plan, but even if that had not been the case, it was, in its essence the Trump-Taliban deal, excluding the Afghan government, and everyone in Afghanistan knew it, so it squashed any allegience to the Afhgan government. The Taliban may not have taken Kabul so quickly had Trump remained on office, but them taking it and taking control of the country was inevitable under the deal they made with Trump. Is that the kind of “deal” Trump is going to make “for” Ukraine?
I support Ukrainian logistics. You always remind me to do more. So you too are helping kill Russian invader criminal pigs. Thank you!
Have you decided to fight, or are you just a Cheerleader?
Where’s Putin?
Afghans had 20 years to get their act together. We weren’t going to spend more blood and treasure on them.
Where’s YOUR Biden?
It is my understanding that Lindsey has some competition for the primary. Maybe, in this time - he has a challenger who can unseat the old blind squirrel.
Off to research…

Your Biden gave your Putin the green light to invade Ukraine in a “minor incursion”.
Donald Trump Says Joe Biden’s Remarks Gave Russia the ‘Green Light’ on Ukraine

Foolish Moscow stooges like delta7 support Bolshevik aggression and Moscow’s allies like Hamas, North Korea, and Iran
——————-
Time to move on, your main man senile Joe is gone, all the Ukraine corruption since 2014 is exposed, and most importantly your man St Z ‘s elaborate fleecing of US taxpayers is fully exposed.
Fact, the US’s corrupt, covert Project Ukraine is DEAD, failed miserably. A glorious day indeed. Get used to it.
Musk trip to Moscow in 2 weeks.

The West needs Russia more than they need us. They are totally self sufficient, and chocked full of minerals, commodities, etc…..The best thing we can do is begin robust trade and commerce with them, their energy and minerals are the cheapest on the planet.
Then why don’t they have indoor toilets?
“They are totally self sufficient, and chocked full of minerals, commodities, etc…..”
Too bad they are so corrupt and lacking a decent work force.
According to a new report by Russia’s state statistical agency, Rosstat, 35 million Russians live in houses or apartments without indoor toilets, 47 million do not have hot water, 29 million don’t have any running water inside their residences, and 22 million do not have central heating (ehorussia.com/new/node/17679).
In fact, only 62.7 percent of the Russian population has the usual accoutrements of modern existence – water in the house, plumbing, heating and gas or electric ranges, Rosstat says, a fact that must seem incredible to those who visit only Moscow or St. Petersburg but a fact of life for those who lives beyond the ring roads of the capitals.
Russian blogger Oleg Borovsky says that the image many have of Russia as one unified country is wrong. “In Russia today, there are practically no cities except for Moscow. Even St. Petersburg is beginning to recall places in distant regions, half-abandoned settlements, and aging infrastructure (newizv.ru/news/society/07-01-2019/ot-metropolii-do-kolonii-rossiya-razdelilas-na-chetyre-kategorii).
With regard to other “cities,” he continues, there is “nothing to say: there degradation and decline are obvious literally to the unaided eye. It is sufficient to go 50 versts from Moscow and you will see that there the snow isn’t cleaned from the streets (even in Moscow oblast!) let alone all the rest” of the trash.
Because people in these places cannot get medical attention or education or good jobs, they are forced to move to Moscow or, failing that, to St. Petersburg. In those cities, there is a chance, admittedly only a chance to get these things and to be in a position to defend oneself against officialdom.

President Donald Trump started peace negotiations over Ukraine with dramatic flair. Although he had been expected to send his envoy Keith Kellogg to present a peace plan at the Munich Security Conference this week, Trump instead had a phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin, announcing on Wednesday morning that they "agreed to have our respective teams start negotiations immediately." Along with the peace talks, the two countries announced a surprise prisoner exchange. And Trump snubbed Kellogg, leaving him out of the announced negotiating team.
Where’s Putin?
IDK. Is he dead again?
You tell me. No proof of life.
