I wouldn’t mind hearing from Zeepers.
They’ll be in the ascendency the more Putin does not engage.
Trump is spending a lot of time trying to resolve this he needs some co-operation.
“They’ll be in the ascendency the more Putin does not engage.”
Putin’s engaged - he sent his #2 Defense Minister there with a team of others. Let’s see if the Ukrainians sit down and talk with them.
As to Putin himself, he’s never been known to fly around the world for photo ops. Like all other major leaders, he flies to countries to sign agreements. Look at Trump today, he’s in Cutter, signing very significant agreements - the work involved in developing those agreements was done by lower-level Americans meeting with Cutterites, or whatever they are called.
When Zeepers tell you Zelensky’s “ peace terms”, it will be obvious why Putin is not engaging.
Why would Putin come to a NATO country that has been providing weapons to Ukraine, to give the installed Cocaine Shrimp a photo op to proclaim “ Crimea is Ukraine”.
Some wars have to be settled on the battlefield. This may be one.
