Witkoff's repeating of Kremlin lies about "russian-speakers" wanting to "join Russia" is truly chilling. This is nothing less than carte blanche for Putin's genocidal imperialism. Hearing Americans talk like this should be an electric shock for Europe, not a wakeup call.

Russia has kidnapped tens of thousands of Ukrainian children. Putin was indicted for this crime. Yale has a unit searching for them. Musk eliminated the funding.

I totally agree. A rush back to pre-war economic relations with Russia guarantees that Putin will use rising revenues to rearm and attack again - either in Ukraine (or what's left of it when Trump has finished giving away its territory) or elsewhere in Central/Eastern Europe.
Exactly. Even Rutte when he says that trade with Russia will resume “after the war” implies this. If the war ends with territorial concessions by Ukraine there should be no normalization w Russia because normalization means allowing these crimes to go on

NEW: I helped Brian Krebs trace the background of one of Elon Musk's top loyalists, Branden Spikes, head of IT at X, who spent 2 mo at DOGE. Spikes and his ex-wife were involved with Russian diaspora websites and groups linked to pro-Kremlin KSORS players, Russian state media while he was at SpaceX.

The US has rejected a Canadian proposal to establish a task force that would tackle Russia’s so-called shadow fleet of oil tankers, as the Trump administration re-evaluates its positions across multilateral organizations, according to people familiar with the matter.

Given that the Trump people did nothing to induce Russia to end the war, it’s fair to conclude that the whole idea of pursuing peace was just a pretext to renew relations with Russia.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

Putin is waging a shadow war against the West, using sabotage and disinformation agents to undermine our confidence in our ability to defend ourselves. And it's working.

Why are our leaders so blind ?
They will head us towards dark times....
I'll say it again: there are words we shouldn't use in front of russian terrorists:
- diplomacy;
- peace talks;
- negotiations;
- compromise.
They are strategically inept and endanger our security.
We, the Allies, must stop de-escalating. Just the contrary.
The clock is ticking.

This talk between Bundeskanzler Scholz & war criminal Putin is not acceptable for two reasons:
1 the only people authorized to talk to this guy are the judges of the International Criminal Court;
2 once again, Germany is dividing Europe and the Allies.
Scholz must go.
