Vladimir Putin wants to seize all of Ukraine and "worse is to come" during the conflict, the French president has warned.
Emmanuel Macron held talks with Mr Putin over the phone this afternoon in a bid to ease tensions between Russia and the West.
According to French officials, Mr Macron told the Russian leader that he was making a "major mistake" in Ukraine, adding: "You are lying to yourself".
Following the call, Mr Macron believes "worse is to come" in the unfolding humanitarian crisis and that Mr Putin wants to seize the entire country, according to an aide.

If Putin was like Hitler he would be incinerating an entire race of people.
Hyperbole much?

That will mean nuclear war.
That will happen if we send NATO forces into the Ukraine.
Go outside. Look at your family. Your neighborhood. Your way of life.
All will be gone or changed completely in minutes if we do that.
Is eastern Europe worth the major cities in the US and Europe? Who does that benefit if all are removed from the map? Why has nuclear war suddenly being talked about by the same people who wanted us all to die unless we got a shot THREE WEEKS AGO!
The magician is waving his hand above the Ukraine. Look for what the other hand is doing.

> Putin has probably read Art of the Deal <
And it’s interesting to note that Putin behaved okay when Trump was president.
Putin invaded Crimea when Obama was president.
Putin invaded no one when Trump was president.
Putin invaded Ukraine when Biden was president.
A fair and independent press would have already pointed this out.

Wow. Was really hoping he wasn’t going to say/do that.
Perhaps it’s time for him to say it publicly.

That’s what I thought too. So not sure why Macron is saying this.

Putin called Macron, not the other way around.
It’s not a good sign that Macron is Putin’s only remaining friend and mouthpiece for his demands.
Boy, you really are dense.
Let me try once more
Macron is a globalist.
Globalists do not care about the truth.
Whether or not Putin called Macron or Macron called Putin is irrelevant.
The report came out of Macron's office, Macron is a Globalist, Globalists do not care about the truth, therefore, there is no way a rational human being can trust, at face value, what Macron is reporting about the phone call between him and Putin.
If a Globalist tells me the sky is blue, I am going to step outside and check for myself.
See how that works?

” that NATO will eventually get involved”
NATO will never fire the first shot at Russia, and it’s debatable if they would even defend themselves.

I have never seen a sudden attack of mass madness like I have seen the last two years
I used to wonder how the Nazi’s and Communists were allowed to do what they did. I no longer do.

Mr Macron believes "worse is to come" DeSantis is right, the poots platoons will have an easier time of it in France than they are having in Ukraine.

War’s coming. You either call Putin out now, or he will continue to expand and grow stronger.
Not for cowering in fear of Putin’s threats while he slaughters innocents or even non-innocents.

Putin is afraid. He’s in his 70th year. The life expectancy for Russian males is 68.2 years
Putin is living beyond his expiry date

Nah, more likely Moldova. Right next to Ukraine and there’s already a “breakaway” Russia-majority region there, just like in Ukraine.

Putin called Macron. Not the other way around. Not a sign of strength.
Why not? Sounds like he's attempting to use the cowardly Macron as his mouthpiece to instill fear into all of Western Europe.
I think Putin basically views all of Western Europe as panty-wearing little sissy-girls. If there are any men left on that continent, they'd better start stepping up.

Of course Putler wants it all. He’s an evil autocratic despot.
I keep hoping that someone in Russia can do what must be done...

This could be a potential positive...
This may be the opening of peace talks.
Macron threatens Nato action.
Putin agrees to withdraw from Kiev. Russia keeps the “disputed territories”. Agreement that remaining Ukraine (moldova) remain independent. But will never be part of NATO or have Nato bases.
Both sides can claim victory

“The First world war was to bring down the Czar to install socialism in Russia. The Second world was to install communism in China.”
Thats just bizarre.
