“It is one thing to say that Russia is not going to attack Europe – for us that sounds ridiculous, it really does. We have never intended to, but if they want to hear it from us, well, fine, we will put it in writing. No problem."

Ah…not for nuthin….but Ukraine is in Europe,.
WTF makes him think anyone believes him? YGTBFKM
He also said in January of 2022 that Russia had no plans to attack Ukraine.
This is pretty funny coming from the country that previously promised to respect Ukraine’s borders and not interfere in its internal politics.

By the way, the folks who think Putin’s next target is Europe are irrational. Russia can’t even handle Ukraine.
Put him on Gutfeld, he’s a comedian.
Yes, it’s funny because the EU and US demonrats will hate it.
That would take them completely out of the equation.
So you are saying signing a treaty to end the war is pointless. So l guess the war ends when everyone is dead because Russians signing a treaty is worthless.. right?
Gee, when will Putin return the wreckage of Poland’s presidential jet, which he ordered shot down 2010, killing Polish President Lech Kaczynski?
It’s only been over 15 years now.
Peace in our time. Deja vu.
Nevertheless, Ukraine has lost land and will NEVER get it back.
That’s what happens in a war.
The dwarf punk dictator needs to quit f’ing around and sign a deal to keep what he’s got left.
ANY idiot knows this.
The EU needs to mind their own business and quit listening to US demonrats who just want to THWART the end of this bloody war to spite Trump.
That is just an outright lie. It wasn’t shot down. A pilot who was suspended for disregarding orders of the President when he ordered some unsafe operations was reinstated and on his first flight again. Weather dictated landing elsewhere and driving to Smolensk. They again insisted on landing in Smolensk.
Polish investigators participated on equal terms with their Russian counterparts in the interviews with people involved and other parts of the investigation. Polish officials secured all Polish state documents found in the wreckage, as well as electronic devices (portable computers and mobile telephones) belonging to government officials and military officers.
The Flight Data Recorder and Cockpit Voice Recorder, both of Soviet design, were analyzed in Russia with the participation of Polish experts. The Quick Access Recorder, designed and produced in Poland, was sent to Poland and analysed there, with the participation of Russian experts. The Flight Management System units, manufactured in the United States, were analyzed there with the participation of the FAA, NTSB, Polish experts, Russian experts, and the Interstate Aviation Committee.
The flight was at Russians invitation to dedicate a memorial to the Polish officers Stalin murdered. After the tragedy, Putin had the Polish film “Katyn” shown on all State TV stations, and was the first Russian leader to admit Soviet guilt and produced and released Stalin’s signed order to kill the Polish officers.
There is enough stupidity in that part of the world, no need to add some bald faced lies to make it worse.
We’ll put it in writing... but when the opportune time comes, we’ll ignore it anyway.
It does not matter if you believe him.
Only one thing matters. Do you think Russia is winning or do you think Ukraine is winning?
If Russia is winning and you persist in fighting anyway, victory will result in the Ukraine government being replaced with a pro Russia government. That’s what victory means. If you think that can be countered by “refusing to recognize it” . . . well, BRICS will and they are the majority of the planet. The UN will seat that govt too, as they do Maduro. It will be a government of technocrats with no foreign policy, other than to remove, or more likely execute, all EU or CIA/MI6 personnel. That’s what victory means.
Russia did not demand this in the 28 point plan. They did not demand surrender.
Now if you think Ukraine is winning, despite President Trump’s and VP Vance’s assertions and that Army guy on Trump’s staff, then you still need not believe Putin. It won’t matter. If you are going to be victorious, you can march on Moscow and force surrender and have control of the oil fields.
So that is the only choice out there. Pick who is winning.
Trump, after being briefed from satellite imagery says it is Russia and it’s about to accelerate. Frankly, Ukraine should be very grateful for the generous Russian offer in the 28 point plan — if they are losing.
Putin and Lavrov has made this point. Zelensky has no satellites. He is listening to the Brits, who do have a few, tell him all is well. And ignoring Trump, who says the reverse.
Gee, when will Putin return the wreckage of Poland’s presidential jet, which he ordered shot down 2010, killing Polish President Lech Kaczynski?
It’s only been over 15 years now.
“No plans to attack Europe”, is NOT the same as, “ I will not attack Europe “.
