Tragedy of the West: Sacrificing Ukraine and the Rules-Based Order
The result of Russia's war of aggression is a product of the ambivalence of the West, which by turns supported Ukraine's defence in the conflict and refused to escalate its response to a level consistent with the threat Russia poses. The rules-based ord...

Putin: ‘Russia is ready to keep fighting until the last Ukrainian dies.’
Western politicians & press: ‘Peace talks have stalled…’
Russia has zero interest in peace. Calling Kremlin demands for Ukrainian surrender ‘peace talks’ is just another way of spreading their propaganda.

Ridiculously obvious which side the Trump administration is on.
Remember that Russia is responsible for war crimes, genocide, and crimes against humanity.
Putin is considered Hitler's heir, and the perpetuator of modern fascism.
This is the Trump administration's idea of a partner.

Witkoff and Kushner have canceled their planned meeting with Zelensky in Brussels, according to Euronews. The Kremlin claims the Trump envoys promised to return directly to Washington after talks with Putin, skipping any follow-up with the Ukrainian side.

Alarming (but not shocking) copy and paste kremlin drivel from the special advisor to the USAGM. The authoritarian right & left can’t resist “color revolution rhetoric” because it denies Ukrainians agency and treats 40M people as puppets rather than citizens capable of resisting authoritarianism.
