When/if he gets a ceasefire it will come with numerous conditions.

Whether he likes it or not.

Who was on the bus?

Unconditional ceasefire = Giving Ukraine time to rearm and round up more unwilling conscripts because it’s losing the war.

Zelensky calls for an unconditional ceasefire and Putin will say no, but there will be those who will continue to call Zelensky the war monger.

I am sick of this man. I don’t like Putin at all, but this waste of space is assuring Ukraine is fully taken over by Russia.

Is Zzelenskyy the actual Russian Ukraine president?

I am onboard with us agreeing Russia can take over Kiev, but leave the rest that’s not Russian occupied.

This “war crime” stuff has to stop.

From a certain (not unreasonable) perspective, war is a crime. But the civil structures to punish the crime of war do not exist, and creating them would cause more problems than it would solve.

War is bad and it should always be avoided at (almost) all costs. It has become uniquely dangerous to our species since 1945.

But it’s also part of our DNA, the best way to end a war is for one side to win and the other side to lose.

If true, it’s long overdue.

I’m guessing “no”. I would bet he’s controlled by people who would kill him if he actually does stop the fighting. Probably people who he’s been paying with our money to keep himself alive.

Russia is CRUSHING Ukraine and is busy bringing the arrogant Zellensky to his knees.
Russia has retaken Kursk and is still in control of the Crimea and other Ukraine territories they took. That will teach Zellensk the thief to come to the White House and disrespect Trump. Chuckle.

No - his head has been embedded in his fourth point of contact for a while.

Seriously, though, he still wants to believe that he has the juice to control this conflict. I’d be looking for his offshore accounts before he abdicates.

“Zelensky called it an “egregiously brutal attack and an absolutely deliberate war crime”.”

Which raise suspicion it was not a deliberate Russian attack on a civilian bus.
Of course we only get one side of it.

Expect a lot more of this BS vs civilians as Zelensky goes hysterical

It’s hard to believe he is still saying things this stupid. This is a world leader?

Take Putin’s terms, save many thousands of lives and stop losing land!

Strange that I don’t see this reported anywhere other than this article.

Reminds of that meme where the polite british officer keeps objecting to the american soldiers taking out his men, unfairly not waiting their turn.

Zelensky calls for 'unconditional ceasefire' after Russian attack...

Midget Nazi Pedo Homo Zelensky still can't properly choose his words to be effective.

He should have selected "Surrender".

We don’t even know if it was in fact the Russians.

Zelinski does not set US foreign policy. He had multiple opportunities.

Trump would do very well to downgrade relations with London and Kiev.

American’s true enemies are located in England. We need to get British influence out of the US.
