Russian President Vladimir Putin held a press briefing today (27) in Moscow, following his visit to Belarus for the Eurasian Economic Union summit in Minsk.
There was plenty of recrimination for the collective West, but respect and even a certain amount of praise for US President Donald J. Trump’s courage and efforts for peace.
Here’s a summary of what Putin said, according to a report by Sputnik:
“Russia is ready for the third round of negotiations with Ukraine. The date is being discussed by the heads of the delegations.
The proposals from Ukraine and Russia for ending the conflict are completely opposite, which is unsurprising.”
The aggressive ‘collective West’, under the pretext of Russia’s imaginary ‘aggression’, wants to rearm.
Russian defense spending, said Putin, is aimed at fulfilling the Special Military Operation in Ukraine, not at aggression towards Europe.
“Western nations’ attempts to ‘destroy’ Russia’s economy will see them ‘die first while trying to bury us’.
Relations between Russia and the US are starting to normalize and the first steps have been taken.
A meeting with US President Donald Trump is entirely possible and Russia would be happy to prepare for it.”

WELL, Trump obviously needs to be impeached! /s
Hey Putin, who’s your DADDY?????
Don’t care for him. Don’t care for Zelensky. Just end the war.
I see what Putty did there.
or is it Pooty?
Trump’s in a position to take a bite out of Siberia. They want us. We’re better than the Chicoms.
Some obvious buttering up since Trump will probably turn his attention to the Ukraine War and he knows Vlad has been a naughty boy.
COLLUSION!!!!!
Putin ignored US calls for a ceasefire, one month ago.
Trump says Russia, Ukraine agree to immediate ceasefire talks, Kremlin offers no timeframe May 20, 2025
Donald Trump said after his call on Monday with President Vladimir Putin that Russia and Ukraine will immediately start negotiations for a ceasefire, but the Kremlin said the process would take time and the U.S. president indicated he was not ready to join Europe with fresh sanctions to pressure Moscow.

LOL, Putin invades neighbors, breaking numerous treaties and annexes territory, but its the "west" that's aggressive. Okay
The west has been aggressive. Russia did not start this war.
Hypocrisy and lying speech is Russia's native tongue.
Pooty saw how the lives of 12 Iranian military commanders and 14 nukester scientists were ended at the hands of the Mossad, Pooty immediately began a rotating schedule of sleeping in anonymous underground bunkers.
Pooty wants to be able to go back to his favorite dacha bedroom.So relations between Russia and the USA are “improving.”
Pooty and the Mullahs are hiding out deep underground playing various games, like “Button, Button, whose got the button?”

“Putin ignored US calls for a ceasefire, one month ago.”
Putin doesn’t need a ceasefire. The negotiations are going nowhere until one side feels more pain.
Winning!
“LOL, Putin invades neighbors, breaking numerous treaties and annexes territory, but its the “west” that’s aggressive. Okay”
There are multiple ways to expand and control a sphere of influence.
We do it our way, the Russians do it their way.
When we have no real interests at stake, we need to stand down.
Because now he knows the USA can take out all his nukes and president Trump can kill him with a word and he has no second strike ability. MAD is dead rejoice!
