Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that he was ready to compromise over Ukraine in possible talks with US President-elect Donald Trump on ending the war and had no conditions for starting talks with the Ukrainian authorities, News.az reports citing Reuters.

Putin, fielding questions on state TV during his annual question and answer session with Russians, told a reporter for a US news channel that he was ready to meet Trump, whom he said he had not spoken to for years.
Asked if he'd do anything differently, he said he should have sent troops into Ukraine sooner than 2022 and that Russia should have been better prepared for the conflict.

Putin said on Thursday that Russia had no conditions to start talks with Ukraine and was ready to negotiate with anyone, including President Volodymyr Zelensky. But he said any deal could only be signed with Ukraine's legitimate authorities, which for now the Kremlin considered to be only the Ukrainian parliament.
Zelensky, whose term was due to expire earlier this year but has been extended due to martial law, would need to be re-elected for Moscow to consider him a legitimate signatory to any deal to ensure it was legally watertight, said Putin.

I just got off the phone with him and he said something differrent?
What’d he tell you? Or do you only talk to zelensk...whatever his name is? :)
Putin is begging President Trump for sanctions relief.
I hope Trump can smooth things over with Putin before PedoJoe pisses him off so badly that he dors something stupid.
You just know the Deep State wants something seriously bad to happen in order to punish Americans for voting Trump back to the WH.
Start of the daily spamming
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Putin is afraid of President Trump.
This is impossible because Ukraine was obliterated and ceased to exist 3 years ago.
How can he possibly negotiate with Ukraine?
In fact there shouldn’t be anyone to negotiate with because the “last Ukrainian” was killed after their army was wiped out.
Maybe only if the Ukrainians didn’t find that last orphan child to draft into the Army.
And how could Russia have been better prepared when it rolled over the Ukrainian troops and they were going to be completely victorious every 4 weeks?

Reality is that Putin is a lying scumbag and like all bullies he’s ultimately a coward.
He knows that Trump will literally kick his a** if he doesn’t cooperate on ending this war.
Further reality is that the Ukrainian operation became an absolute disaster for Putin and Russia.
Sorry for those of you here who were busy splitting up Ukraine between Poland and Russia.
Some of you really need to look in the mirror read the Bible and try to get some morality back into your hearts and minds.
Does this also mean that Putin would negotiate away his glorious campaign against homosexuality?
Where can Christianity turn next if we’ve lost the holy Warrior Putin?
Putin said on Thursday that he was ready to compromise over Ukraine ... as long as UKR agrees to his terms.
It was very sad hearing the Russian pensioner refugee from Kursk begging Putin for housing vouchers on the call in today and Putin responded with a cold “I’ll look into it.”
Does the Russian central bank interest rate go to 23% or 25% tomorrow? Place your bets…
How did things end up where Putin’s enemies all end up looking like they support pedophilia, even when you take Putin off the table?
And Germany and the EU would like to renew the gas deal. The current contract ends Jan 1st. “Z” says he won’t renew. Wanna bet???
They’re both the head of a super power. He’s not afraid.
It’s amazing how you are able to know what Putin Thinks.
Are you able to read anybody else’s mind?
Do you do this on stage at all?
