We have sufficient leverage over only one party in this war...to compel a peace.
If that is the US goal, to immediately compel a full ceasefire, then we have the leverage to do so.
But I think the administration holds that goal and is, for whatever reason, dissuaded from using the leverage we have.
And we have very, very little leverage over Russia as will be clear to everyone shortly.
“The U.S. Secretary of State added that today’s strike serves as a “tragic reminder” of why President Donald Trump and his administration “are putting so much time and effort into trying to end this war and achieve durable peace.”
That is exactly what Trump has said all along. “2500 soldiers, both Russian and Uke, are being killed every week”. This is an example of it. Those 30 or 50 Uke troops at that military awards ceremony would be alive now if not for the DC MIC warmongers and the Euro warmongers keeping this madness going.
How is the goal of 30,000 men per month recruiting plan going ?
You too can be one of the combatants, enlist today !

Maybe Rubio should have checked with DNI before making his dumbass statement.
