United States Vice President JD Vance told reporters aboard Air Force Two while departing Italy after his discussion with Pope Leo on Monday, indicating negotiations regarding the Ukraine conflict have reached "a bit of an impasse."
"We realize there's a bit of an impasse here," Vance added. "Putin doesn't seem to quite know how to get out of the war. If Russia is not willing to engage, eventually the US has to say that this is not our war."
Vance said he anticipates US President Donald Trump will question Russian President Vladimir Putin about his "serious" interest in peace during their scheduled conversation later today.

JD Dunce is telegraphing to Putin, our moves on Ukraine.
Notice that Vice President Vance referred to Putin as “Putin” and not “President Putin”? This is by design.

Pit Bull cannot understand why Ukraine does not surrender, meeting all of Putin’s terms.
I hope JR sees this one. It's Ukraine first, America last with the international set.
Vice President Vance has more brains in his pinky finger than you do in your entire body.
Go back to DU with that crap, Ukrainian clown.
putin still is evil
Act accordingly!
So Vance is a Pit Bull who "cannot understand"?
May it be forever yours for eternity!!
“If Russia is not willing to engage, eventually the US has to say that this is not our war.”
Sounds good.
“We realize there’s a bit of an impasse here,” Vance added. “Putin doesn’t seem to quite know how to get out of the war. If Russia is not willing to engage, eventually the US has to say that this is not our war.”
Putin doesn’t want to negotiate. Well, Vlad the Invader hasn’t fulfilled his mission of expansion to reform the Soviet Union empire. So, he is hoping that the entire world will ignore him like it did when Hitler invaded his neighbors.
Vance is wrong about this, it will eventually become a US war. I don’t want it to be. Never wanted this situation to occur in the first place (Obama and Biden made this possible). Europe will get involved even if the US doesn’t at this point, and that will eventually lead the US into it. It’s inevitable, IMHO, that if peace cannot be made the US will be involved.

These jackass FRUkrainians are still smarting over Kamala’s sound defeat last November. They’re missing those Biden Billions of our tax dollars that were being sent regularly to their dancing green grifter.
They trash Vice President Vance because they know that trashing President Trump might earn a zot, as POUF found out a month or so ago.
His stated mission is the deNazification of Ukraine.
Ridiculous claim.
For 3.5 years you had a Biden administration dig a hole as deep as they could and it's always easier to break things than to build them.
Trying to crawl out of that might require some time and skill.
You now have two sides that are dug in (pun intended).
We really only have leverage on Ukraine, but also need to ensure they get a fair deal (not just pressure them to end it at any cost).
The process of deescalation and disengagement might be best done by trying to break it down into small bite sizes.
As you achieve these small successes, you will open new opportunities.
Lets come up with a list of things we can do now (chip away at this mountain) and not try to move the entire mountain at once with some grand peace deal which will be hard to achieve at this point.
