Kremlin suggests it may not implement Black Sea ceasefire until Russia is admitted back into SWIFT.

Delegations from Russian and Ukraine on Tuesday agreed to a ceasefire in the Black Sea following talks with Trump administration officials this week in Saudi Arabia.

"The United States and Russia have agreed to ensure safe navigation, eliminate the use of force, and prevent the use of commercial vessels for military purposes in the Black Sea," the White House said in a statement following talks in Jeddah.

Similarly, just moments later, Ukrainian Defense Minister Rustem Umerov, who is leading the delegation confirmed that "All parties have agreed to ensure safe navigation, eliminate the use of force, and prevent the use of commercial vessels for military purposes in the Black Sea."

Though he also emphasized that "all movement by Russia of its military vessels outside of [the] eastern part of the Black Sea will constitute violation of the spirit of this agreement, will be regarded as violation of the commitment to ensure safe navigation of the Black Sea and threat to the national security of Ukraine."

"In this case, Ukraine will have full right to exercise [the] right to self-defense," he added in a readout following talks in Riyadh.

When all is said and done - and it might take many months, yet - even if peace if finally restored to this region, President Trump will never be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for it!

But that Obama...! Given the Award preemptively - on a hope and a prayer! Because it was thought that it would encourage him to promote good race relations!

What a joke!

Each side is probably killing about a thousand of the other each day.

Complete proposals need to be created and negotiated over.

The US and EU bend over backwards for Third World foreigners merely claiming “credible fear” but are letting 2,000 Slavic speakers die daily.

three months - 90 days - 2,000/dead/day - 180,000 dead

Pound on the keys of federal PCs until something the Russians might accept is produced.

There does not seem to be a signed agreement. Impossible to violate an agreement that does not exist.

Almost like that's part of the plan.

Another part of the plan is importing eight million of those Third World foreigners claiming “credible fear” into the Ukraine to replace the native Ukrainians depopulated or killed during this senseless proxy war

Yeah, let's try to appease the aggressor! We all know how that works out in the end, right?
