Before the intimate hour-long press conference began at Stansted Airport, a seasoned industry veteran leaned toward me and remarked: “This may be the most important conference you and I will ever attend in our careers.”

He’s the EU’s problem now. The US is done
Key points
However, no clear path forward emerged from our discussion – there was no concrete outline of what the Europeans might offer, nor any assurance of what role they would play in shaping Ukraine’s future security.
I posed a question about the occupied territories, asking whether any agreement could involve surrendering land to Russia, particularly in regions it claims as its own, despite the continued presence of Ukrainian troops.
Zelensky’s response was unequivocal: any peace deal that involved such concessions would not be peace – it would be “a forced capitulation.”
This was a crucial point, for it is widely believed that President Putin will never accept a peace agreement that does not cede entire regions he has annexed
No more U.S. dollars and No U.S. soldiers should be committed to this futile war Ukraine insists on persuing.
Zelensky may have misjudged his support by the American “pippel”.
We’re sort of fickle when somebody kicks sand in the faces of our President and Vice President in the White House while a guest.
Countries lose territory in war all the time.
Ukraine has lost only a minority of its territory and several hundred thousand lives so far.
Do they want to lose ALL the dirt and manhood?
Apparently so.
Their stupid honor. They are welcome to expend everything and lose rather than accept a moderate loss.
Just keep us out of your stupid loss.
Europe offered Zelenskyy a one month cease fire, he already said NO..the dude does NOT want any peace, he wants MONEY, FOREVER and ever and ever
“To the Victor Go the Spoils” has been in effect since the beginning of time.
The only thing Zelinsky cares about is the grift.
Not saving lives.
Not territory.
Not democracy.
Not freedom.
Not elections.
It’s all about the money. That is why he loved crooked Brandon Junta and campaigned for them.
We do not have any dog in that fight in Ukraine so if Europe wants to get into a shit show, then have right at it but we will sit that one out as it is not worth 1 drop of American blood or treasure to waste on these fools!!
“...he wants MONEY, FOREVER and ever and ever.”
I suspect he’s already got his billion stashed away He’s desperate for more money not because he needs it, but because the people who decide whether he lives or dies need it.
I posed a question about the occupied territories, asking whether any agreement could involve surrendering land to Russia, particularly in regions it claims as its own, despite the continued presence of Ukrainian troops.
Zelensky’s response was unequivocal: any peace deal that involved such concessions would not be peace – it would be “a forced capitulation.”
This was a crucial point, for it is widely believed that President Putin will never accept a peace agreement that does not cede entire regions he has annexed, inhabited by millions of Ukrainians, to Russia.
So Zelensky demands Ukraine be treated like a victor or else 'no peace deal.' He knows Putin will not accept this. Meanwhile, Z keeps bleating that the UK needs 'ecurity agreements' but ignores the ones he's promised because it isn't the US. Given what he wants, his behavior marks him as stupider than his critics always thought he was.
UK, France and Germany have no answers
They are just hanging on by their fingernails.
The UK will collapse first. They are in a neo-marxist doom loop.
Z had the most important conference recently in the oval office. And he blew it.
Well, half of them anyway. There's a considerable number who are rooting his kicking sand in Trump's face.
The Brits are nutter-butters.
He has an election, a cease fire and pay back the money, then we will talk.
Zelensky actually released official numbers a couple days ago.
Total fatalities - military plus civilian - were about 70,000.
46,000 military. Around 25,000 civilian.
Is that credible?
I do not know.
How is Zelenskyy not an illegitimate President at this point?
