Sec Marco Rubio saying on the phone to Senator Rounds, that the 28 point “peace-plan” was written and leaked by RUSSIA and somehow ended up in the hands of the US.
Downplaying it as just a Russian proposal and the US as a recipient and intermediary, now giving the Ukrainians the chance to respond.

THE CATASTROPHE OF THE US FFGX PROGRAM, JUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF INCOMPETENCE

Almost a fall but nothing that makes any difference to your average Russian. Food is still rising steeply - more in the winter and worsened by the clogged up trade corridors out of Kazakhstan where 5,000+ trucks are held up in

Such activity from Putin clearly shows that the other sides are close to a deal and forcing Putin to peace. Putin also realizes that in case he refuses the sanctions will be enhanced and a full dependence of Russia from China will follow.

Putin doesn't want negotiations but he doesn't want to declare this upfront, so he needs a global scandal in the USA

It's very possible that the conversation between Steve Witkoff and Putin's aide Ushakov has been leaked by Russians (it's obvious that they make recordings of all conversations).

Why would they do it?

Today one Russian newspaper writes: “With its strikes on Russia, Kyiv is demonstrating it doesn’t want peace.” But what about Russia’s continued attacks on Ukraine? Here’s a look at how one headline can say so much about Moscow’s approach. #ReadingRussia

Whether this was random street crime or targeted political violence, I think it was bad for the president to unnecessarily put the National Guard in harm’s way like this. They simply don’t need to be there.

These two things are true:
1) Shooting National Guard members is horrific and criminal.
2) So is putting National Guard members in harm’s way to score political points.

Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?

TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.

Trump's "new" peace plan for Ukraine is just the same 2022 Russian demands of giving up territory and disarming Ukraine so that Ukraine will easier to attack and conquer as soon as Russia is ready to resume the war. Trump continues to work for Putin.

Everyone in the Trump Administration is a coward. Trump, Vance, Hegseth, Rubio, and Witkoff were all too chicken to deliver Trump's capitulation demands to Kyiv so they sent the Secretary of the Army.

After 4 years of war with the Nazis, Stalin and the Russians had conquered Berlin.

After 4 years of war against Ukraine, Putin and the Russians still have not taken all of Pokrovsk just 40 km from where they started their invasion.

Russia is the one who NEEDS this "peace" deal.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio was kept in the dark about Trump and Witkoff's 28 point "peace plan." Rubio initially spoke the truth to US Senators and then had to lie to everyone to be consistent with Trump.

By getting Trump to endorse and push Russia's "peace plan," Steve Witkoff successfully took the sanctions pressure off Russia. Last week we were talking about Congress voting to sanction Russia and now we are not.
