The European Union officials are weighing the possibility of easing sanctions on Russia if President Vladimir Putin agrees to a ceasefire in Ukraine, The Telegraph reported on Saturday.

Fully concession of the annexed territory and security guarantees that Ukraine remains a neutral country are the only conditions that end the war.

What sanctions?

They are continuing to prop up Putin by buying his oil.

Why wouldn't they?

Do you expect India its economy by rejecting Russia oil over Ukraine?

Point being, the sanctions are meaningless. Europe doesn’t want to be inconvenienced, they only want Americans to be inconvenienced.

Yes! Marcus prediction there would be a ceasefire yesterday.

That worked as well as two dozen claims that Putin was dying of blood, thyroid, stomach or elbow cancer.

***********

And the Europeans got us to shell out tons of money to Ukraine while they ignored their own domestic debt problems. This on top of their longstanding “reluctance” to meet their NATO spending targets. The Europeans get away with playing their little games.

Not to worry, Europe will always be there for us, when she needs us.

Why does the EU continue to commit suicide? Germany is already in recession, depression next step….they cut their own throat by blowing up the Nordstream pipeline- the life blood of their manufacturing and cheap energy.

They are bleeding out, and with their Islamic and alien hoards pouring in, it is easy to see the collapse….No Tears…

….The EU is more of a threat to the US than Russia is.
