Ukraine denies Trump claims that ‘thousands’ of its troops are surrounded
The Telegraph via Yahoo ^ | March 14th, 2025 | Iona Cleave

Ukraine’s military was forced to dismiss Donald Trump’s claim that thousands of its troops are encircled in Russia’s Kursk region as “false”.

Its general staff instead accused Russia of fabricating reports for “political manipulation and to exert pressure on Ukraine and its partners”, while Volodymyr Zelensky said Vladimir Putin was lying about the battlefield situation.

Putin claimed on Thursday night that his forces had encircled thousands of Ukrainians in the western Kursk region, which Ukraine invaded in August, warning they would have to “surrender or die”.

in that case, if it’s false, Trump should just tell Pooty Poot to have at it and slaughter away.

More likely Z and Budanov are trying to save face. They’d be hanging from lampposts if they admitted the scale of the rout to their general public.

Kill them all and then count and see who’s right.

Thats about it.

Tell him..”The Ukrainians are claiming otherwise so you do what you gotta do.”

Then walk away.

I think Trump and Putin know more about the situation than the Uke propaganda machine.
Zelinsky needs to surrender. If not, he’s murdering his surrounded troops.
Putin is giving him a chance to have their lives spared.

I’ve had it with the Ukes. Trump is trying to save them from a slaughter and they respond by calling our President a liar.

I am still puzzled why Trump feels the need to be so engaged with Ukraine.

We all know Ukraine was the project of his political enemies in the US deep state and Democrat Party. Indeed, Ukraine even assisted them trying to frame and take down his presidency.

Why does he feel the need to be involved so deeply trying to convince Zelensky and Putin to come together? He’s investing his own political capital for what seems to be little reward.

BTW Trump isn’t asking those two to “come together”, like the Beatles song.

Go on hating each other if they must. Just stop taking it out on the people, especially the young men conscripted into the grinder.

Just cease fire, period.

Well, if they’re not being given US intel anymore...

Maybe they haven’t heard the news yet.

Right now there are no nuke weapons in Ukraine. NATO and Russia need to keep it that way. Then there’s a buffer between the two of distance. A neutral Ukraine with the Russians staying in their boundaries and Ukraine staying in theirs is a best outcome. Biden and the deep state baited Putin into invading and now people are dying in wholesale fashion. If everyone went back to the borders that existed before all this crap started, it won’t heal the bitterness created from just this conflict, never mind what existed before. This whole thing is uglier than a bucket of azzholes and it’s gonna take some statesmanship to solve it. I’m not sure anyone but Trump is willing to really try. IMO
