Force Russia to make peace, Zelensky urges West
BBC ^ | May 27, 2024 | Matt Murphy

Posted on 05/27/2024 9:25:43 AM PDT by McGruff

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has urged Western leaders to pressure Russia into peace using "all means" necessary.

...

Mr Zelensky has long said he will not negotiate with Russia directly until Moscow's forces leave all Ukrainian territory, including Crimea.

...

The Ukrainian president rejected the idea of inviting Russia to a planned peace summit in Switzerland next month.

...

Delegates will "try and chart a course for a just and lasting peace in Ukraine" based on 10 demands set forth by Kyiv calling for the return of all invaded territory, reparation payments for war-related damages and the creation of a special tribunal to prosecute Russian war crimes, a plan that Moscow has flatly rejected.

And puppies and kittens, and lots of ice cream.

“He’s a real comedian.”

Thanks for posting, I was going to ask just who this ‘Zelensky’ guy is, since Ukraine no longer has a leader.

Maybe Trump will. If he wins, he’ll tell Putin that we’ll give the Ukrainians all the good stuff. And there will be no restrictions. That will motivate Putin to negotiate.

Why force Russia to the negotiation table. They are winning! Does that salient fact escape liberal minds?

Sounds like he better get busy on his Fuhrer bunker and pray Steiner arrives.

Yeah, he’s going to go to bat hard for the Ukes who infested his White House with spies and were behind his impeachment. LOL

As the new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Gen. Charles Brown, said on supplying US trainers in Ukraine, "We’ll get there eventually, over time."

This man is an evil person, period.

He condemned his nation to destruction due to sheer and abject stupidity.

Failing to understand the geopolitical realities of his nation, and listening to warmonger snakes from the west that fed him lies.

As soon as the UKraine showed Russia they were not going to roll over and be the easy mark Russia believed and beat back the initial Russian offensive they should have pursued peace.. rather than years later after having countless lives destroyed needlessly and pointlessly.

No Putin should not have invaded, but UKraine has zero chance of winning an open conflict with Russia, and NATO was never going to put troops on the ground for them.

Z is just an idiot and flat out evil. Peace talks should have been going on from the beginning….

In my lifetime I am hard pressed to think of a more avoidable situation than the Ukrainian conflict.

You are still under the impression that the US and Europe have anything they can do to change the trajectory of this conflict, they don’t(they have tried everything sanctions, $300+ billions dollars)...the only option is to declare war on Russia, even then there is no guarantees at it will escalate quickly to a nuclear war.

Ukraine’s problem is they are running out of people...this will lead to a quick and sudden collapse on the front-line...what as changed in the past two years that Russia is now picking up steam on the battle field, don’t let them fool you, as it has nothing to do with money.

They only solution, is a salvage mission to save what is still left of Ukraine, before they completely collapse..THIS IS REALITY.
