Ukraine's Incursion Scuttles Secret Cease-fire Efforts
Newsmax ^ | August 17, 2024 | Newsmax Staff

Ukraine and Russia were set to reach a landmark cease-fire, with both nations set to send delegations to Doha this month, diplomats and officials familiar with the discussions told The Washington Post.

The talks, in which the Qataris would serve as mediators, were scuttled by Ukraine's incursion into Russia's Kursk region last week. The move came in response to a year of Russian strikes on Ukraine's power grid.

According to officials who spoke to the Post on the condition of anonymity, there was hope that the negotiations would lead to an end to the war, or at least a limited cease-fire.

What move? The incursion, or the talks they scuttled.

Amazing. Why do that? Who benefits?

After the USA’s UKR proxy uses US HIMARS in Russia to blow up Russian bridges, one should not be surprised if Russia reciprocates using their proxies and weapons inside the US territory. Craziness abounds.

This is a civil war between slavic tribes. Intervening is not in America’s strategic interests.

I believe “the move” refers to Ukraine’s advance into the Kursk Oblast.

It’s likely the Ukes are grabbing territory to use as a bargaining chip.

The Qataris and some other more reasonable Middle East Muslim Nations are genuine in their efforts to effect a ceasefire and start negotiations.

Additionally, they are aware of the Deep Swamp, Marxist Democrat goals.

Not to worry, with our modern Homo Tranny DEI Military, and Government, plus our vast experience in effectively Projecting Homo Degeneracy around the world, everyone loves us, and nothing can go wrong.

It’s more likely they’ll be back in Ukraine within the next 7 days.

Wrong. Ukraine is a huge exporter of food to Africa and Europe. Control of this food supply is a direct threat to our national security.

Why keep the talks secret? If Russia was doing so well there wouldn’t be any at all. Might as well attack.

Oh, boy, that ought to be good for extending the war at least another 2 years longer than it would otherwise go...

Obviously, the Deep State was not aware of and did not approve of the strike into Russian territory.

It appears they don't want Ukraine to win or get a cease fire.

Who benefits most from this continual war? China.

China has tremendous influence in the Biden administration.

The war bleeds China's traditional enemy, Russia, and gets China cheap Russian oil.

The war uses up war stocks from the USA.

Win Win for China.

Yes, if you assume the Deep Swamp is as competent as the Secret Service.

Of course that speaks well of both the Deep Swamp and the Secret Service (snicker).

It appears they don't want Ukraine to win or get a cease fire.

It also appears that "they" do want the Federal debt that is causing the crash of the American Economy, The Federal Reserve, runaway Inflation, and the destruction of the Dollar as the Reserve Currency to accelerate.

Who benefits most from this continual war? China.

Nope, while China might benefit, it's Globalist One World Government Oligarchs that benefit MOST.

China would benefit most from unrestricted trade with the West, and that is what Chinese bribes to Americans like Biden are designed to get.

China has tremendous influence in the Biden administration.

Yep, voluntarily sold to China by Bribe taking Socialist American Citizens.

The war bleeds China's traditional enemy, Russia, and gets China cheap Russian oil.

True, ... The war also bleeds America, Communism's traditional enemy.

China is STILL Communist and Russia is, interestingly, not.

The war uses up war stocks from the USA.

Yep, we wouldn't want to sell any of those useful firearms and ammunition to legacy American Citizens, ya can't trust them. Better to send 'em to those nice Banderas' in Ukraine or let the ATF Fast And Furious 'em to the Narco Gangs.

We certainly need Globalist Law Enforcement to watch those crazy Legacy 2A Americans, maybe Global Cops could help oversee who gets in at American Borders, too.

...

Are you seeing a pattern here?
