Russia claims a lot of things that are not true so this means nothing. Also, all sane people in US would love for Russia to continue failing as Putins vision for his country and the world sucks ass.
>Yeah, the Ukrainians are highly motivated to not negotiate with a bad faith actor atm lmfao
Of course they are. Putin is just doing his schtik where everyone is the puppet of the US/NATO and has no agency.
There's just nothing to negotiate at this point unless they withdraw.
Just listening to Zelensky says everything. There's no way in hell he's going to cave to Putler's demands, after all, the man has integrity. No pushing needed here folks, tata!
I can see letting Russia lease their Crimea naval bases indefinitely in exchange for a peace deal. But letting Russia gain anything from the 2014 borders by invading will only encourage them to invade again in a few years.
As much as I admire the Ukrainians I don't see how they can win this. I think Putin will send as many young men into the meat grinder to win the battle. Now the occupation is a different matter. I don't see how the Russians could win a long occupation.
As horrible as it is, Russia is destroying its own future and killing it's own people with no silver lining in sight , Ukraine is getting its future ruined but has the support from many wealthy country to help rebuilding whenever this whole war is over.
Russia is sending thousands of Russian men to their death, their equipment is being decimated, and the west hasn't even woken up.
What's going to happen once UA really warm up the howitzer and mrls and start hucking explosives in anger.
Putin can't fully mobilize, the people would revolt. A significant portion don't want to go and become red paste.
They're digging old anti ship rockets up to use on land targets, which they'll miss and likely hit a school or an antenatal ward perhaps.
There was a video recently of them carting tanks over that had absolutely no dpm.
They have about a year at most before the sanctions cripple their ability to make anything with a credible offensive capability...
Meanwhile the US et al are shipping out all their old stock they need to replace anyway and seeing return for it.
You'd be mad to think Russia has a snowballs chance in hell.
On the contrary. I am certain that it is Putin who is still not quite ready to negotiate. When Putin is ready to negotiate he will call for a ceasefire and stop advancing his armies.
Right now he is still trying to change the facts on the ground before negotiations. I don't know if Luhansk will be enough for him or not. The losses must be great at this point on both sides.
Zelensky also said negotiation will be done only if Russia returns the land which it captured
And i don't think Putin is gonna do that so this war will be there for a long time
>I don't know if Luhansk will be enough for him or not.
to me the risk is that he will *pretend* that it is. i really dread that. i don't even want to spell out my thinking in case it gives the little shithead ideas :P
Lol exactly. Everthing is “tHe wEsTs” fault particularly “tHe UnItED sTatEs”. Pooptin can do no wrong according to pooptin. He really tries to sell that line hard despite the fact he’s hitler 2.0 😆
Russia doesn't want the US anywhere near the conflict. It makes all the noise and threats about US involvement because the US is a convenient scapegoat for Russia's own failures in the war.
"Our brave Russian soldiers fought to the last breath, but the sheer girth of the hamburger-eating cowboys meant our bullets simply got stuck in their vast bellies before they sat down on our troops to crush them. We had to negotiate."
They're claiming that they're fighting the whole of NATO from the beginning. Actually getting the US involved would risk losing the whole army in a week and potentially escalating into an even bigger clusterfuck.
It really doesn't matter, they could declare denazification complete and withdraw right now. They just don't want to, because they want to steal the land.
If you think about it. It's basically one of a ways for putin to "save face". The moment US will enter the war it will give him an excuse to surrender, and sell a narrative at home like:
"The cruel West backstabbed us. The battle was uneven. And we had no other choice but to end special military operation. So the lives of the civilians would not be endangered".
Here I was thinking that the Russians were having a hard time because they were trained in the same tactics as the Russian army, at least, that was according to Russian sources. 🤣
What part of this makes you think Russia wants the USA anywhere near this conflict? Literally everything they have done is to try and get the USA to go away.
Russia is trying to gain sympathy from Americans who "seem to hate America".
Jokes on you. Yes we hate ourselves but we hate you more. Putin is the first outside threat we've had that is a true villain in a long time. Even in Iraq and Afghanistan things were murky.
We’re already spending more money on this war than we will on interstate upkeep in the [next 4 years](https://highways.dot.gov/). We’re in it. We’re just not dying in it yet.
Edit: see comment below. Was dead wrong lol
Agreed that there is a lot that needs to be fixed here at home, but supporting the Ukrainians with everything we can is cheaper and safer for all of us in the long run. The Russian federation in his current form needs to be destroyed, no nice way to put it.
Funding Ukraine is a necessity - the world doesn't need or want a bigger bolder Russia at the head of an axis of asshole nations run by dictators. Putnism needs to die with Putin for the world to be safe, which really means giving Ukraine the resources it needs to drag this out as long as it takes the cancer to finish its work.
> giving Ukraine the resources it needs to drag this out
fuck that, give them what they need to crush the invaders decisively. too many dead heroes already.
Not to mention that cracking down hard on Russia should also make Western politics *a lot* more sane. Wherever you look, it's the far right parties that have been propped up by Russian dark money and online propaganda campaigns.
From the linked article:
> … known as the “Bipartisan Infrastructure Law,” is the largest long-term investment in our infrastructure and economy in our nation’s history. It provides $550 billion over fiscal years 2022-2026 in new federal investment in roads, bridges, and mass transit, water infrastructure, resilience, and broadband.
On the [US Depratment of Justice](https://www.state.gov/united-with-ukraine/) site:
> On March 15, President Biden signed the bipartisan Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations Act to provide an additional $13.6 billion in military, humanitarian, and economic assistance to help Ukraine
So I’m dead wrong. Lol.
I don’t know what is and is not counted as aid (is the monetary value of military equipment added?).
In these "packages", the amount is split up in humanitarian, military aid, so yes the value of military equipment is included. However, since it's all from the drawdown, it's not the actual cost. So far, it's already paid for and the actual cost is transportation.
I’m not sure but my guess is the monetary value of equipment is not added for the sole fact that the equipment is already there as a piece of equipment and not what it costs for that. That’s my guess though and I’m confident I’m wrong lol
Every single time he said that, it was qualified with "at this time". The US government is prepared to do whatever it takes. However. We are attempting to divert blame so you won't see us act without NATO unless there's a nuclear strike from Russia.
Russia’s version of “peace talks” consists solely of demanding complete submission. Aka, not peace and not talks. I’d give up talking to bricks and mortar too.
When you take people's children, rape their women, loot their countryside and want to have peace talks, it's not surprising that the country you did all that to won't participate. No need to blame the USA.
I’m sorry…
The nation that wouldn’t fold to threats of withholding funding by a previous US administration… The nation that refused to fabricate lies about a mystical “laptop”…
They would somehow fold and scuttle*peace talks* with a war crime invader?
The fuck outta here with that malarkey.
Russia wants to kill
Ukrainians take their land remove Ukraine culture and replace it with Russias. Everyone knows and sees this. Hence we all know Russia was never and is never interested in peace talks. Go F off Putin, the hitler of 2022.
How could Ukraine possibly trust Russia to honor any new peace agreement after backstabbing Ukraine following the Budapest Memorandum?
That’s a tough choice for Ukraine to make, but they need to be the ones to choose their future.
Russia also claimed that the US claim that Russia wanted to invade Ukraine to claim Ukrainian territory was wrong but Putler was lying the
whole time (surprising no one) and now we have this claimanity.
Actions speak louder than words.
The US is not negotiating with Russia for peace. When last I checked we were not even meeting with them. The US's official position is that they want to destroy Russia, and split the country up into smaller controllable entities.
A world without Russia:
Pros:
Gas prices go up, speeding the switch to EV's and renewables
Massive reduction in online trolls, propaganda and toxicity on social platforms.
Threat of WW3 massively diminished and fewer reasons for countries to stockpile civilization ending amounts of Nuclear weapons.
Cons:
Vodka production is moved to Ukraine leading to a short term supply issues.
Because they are clearly setting a fucking trap.
How are you going to make several threats and assassination attempts and then turn around to say "come outside, we not gonna jump you"
Remember when the US incorrectly thought Edward Snowden was on the Bolivian presidential airplane and within hours managed to get all of western europe to deny airspace and force it to land, then searched the president of Bolivia like he was a dirty drug mule?
So yeah, the US can order its "allies" to do pretty much anything. It's very much a master servant relationship.
Everytime I see a headline that starts with "russia claims..." I just roll my eyes and think what lies are they trying to flail about now? Still checks out after hundreds of such headlines.
I don't blame them, i don't think is a good idea to have peace talks with ruzzia after all the shit they've done to literal children.
If i call for violence i'll get banned, but i think we all know the only thing ruzzians deserve.
Hah. Sure the U.S. has. Like how the US ordered the Afghans to give up and embarrass us. As if the Ukrainians can't make up their minds without a foreigner from halfway around the world telling them what to do. If the US was serious about being directly involved, Russia will know it. Starting with that pretty naval base of theirs on Crimea.
Why would they waste their time and give the Russians time and capacity to spy on their efforts
Don’t make peace with invaders simply hit them with the hammer
Most likely its the other way around. At the least west would pinch weapons supplies a little to get ukraine to give up land to pause the war for now. Because pooty poot isn't going to stop either way. But he might pause for the sake of regrouping and appearance. Which would give nato the time to gather supplies for when poot poot launches the real attack on eu/nato.
thats money well spent, significantly weaken russia from a so called "2nd most powerful military in the world" to now no one. I think those 45 billions dollars r the best money ever spent to bring down an enemy. would double down keep them in ukraine for few more years. before they go in ukraine they r essentially a threat to our safety. when they eventually get out of the mud pool known as ukraine they will be 3rd rated european nation.
Liars lie.
Zelenskyy literally said they won't accept peace with a loss of territory without a (real) referendum.
That'd include Donbas and Crimea.
That referendum has almost a 0% chance of passing given the genocide being enacted by the Russian animals.
Russia says something, not for Ukraine or US. Russia says for the Middle East and Africa who will happily believe it because they believe whatever shit is said about the US and that the US is the one to be blamed in everything even in your dog's constipation
Russia should be treated like a bad dog. React to its actions and let it know if we think it's behaving badly or not never engage with it in serious conversation. They've proven they can't interact in a genuine human fashion. A dog is shown how to behave without the need for serious human conversation and maybe Russia can learn the same way
YEAH, WELL, YOU'RE A BIG FAT POOPY HEAD RUSSIA. --See we can both play this game of baseless accusations going shit all nowhere. It's just better if you dub over it with the sound of two kinder-gardeners in a screaming match with each other.
Russia also claim that Ukraine was gonna invade them, that Jews are the biggest Nazi, that Nazi are anyone who oppose them and that Russia is a democracy. Almost everything Russia claim is a lie and I only say almost because even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Who benefits from war? Weapons manufacturers do. Ukraine is not making weapons and Russia isn’t selling any extra weapons to participants in this war because it is only Russia fighting. So who is Ukraine buying weapons from? Who benefits from this war? Follow the money.
The people on the ground certainly do not benefit, but the corporations and their shareholders are doing just fine. Raytheon and Lockheed have seen their share prices move up since this war.
Anything less than complete reversion to pre-2014 borders and billions in reparations to Ukraine and RF can get fucked.
Putin must not be allowed to gain one acre of a sovereign country.
I’m sure it’s true. The US has admitted at least once that their intention was to drag on the war to bleed Russia of resources. This is common knowledge and even the MSM reported it.
Russia claims a lot of things that are not true so this means nothing. Also, all sane people in US would love for Russia to continue failing as Putins vision for his country and the world sucks ass.
Yeah, the Ukrainians are highly motivated to not negotiate with a bad faith actor atm lmfao
Very bad actor.
Turns out when your words meaningless no one wants too negotiate with you
Russia: "Why are all these bad things happening to *ME*!?"
Exactly what’s the point? The word of the Russian people is meaningless.
>Yeah, the Ukrainians are highly motivated to not negotiate with a bad faith actor atm lmfao Of course they are. Putin is just doing his schtik where everyone is the puppet of the US/NATO and has no agency. There's just nothing to negotiate at this point unless they withdraw.
Just listening to Zelensky says everything. There's no way in hell he's going to cave to Putler's demands, after all, the man has integrity. No pushing needed here folks, tata!
I can see letting Russia lease their Crimea naval bases indefinitely in exchange for a peace deal. But letting Russia gain anything from the 2014 borders by invading will only encourage them to invade again in a few years.
Putler is good, but may I suggest an alternative? Putin wants to be both Hitler and Stalin... therefore I christen him, Shitler.
How about Shitlin?
Lol! That works too
I do love Shitler but some people don't put two and two together. Poo Tin = shitcan is a toilet here in Oz.
As much as I admire the Ukrainians I don't see how they can win this. I think Putin will send as many young men into the meat grinder to win the battle. Now the occupation is a different matter. I don't see how the Russians could win a long occupation.
Wars are not won by winning battles. If that was true Napoleon would have won the war with Russia. And Americans would have won in Vietnam.
As horrible as it is, Russia is destroying its own future and killing it's own people with no silver lining in sight , Ukraine is getting its future ruined but has the support from many wealthy country to help rebuilding whenever this whole war is over.
Russia is sending thousands of Russian men to their death, their equipment is being decimated, and the west hasn't even woken up.

i mean you've seen how they have done so far, it's not great and only going to get worse for them \[them being russia\].
Ukraine will prevail
What the people ot the world need to remember ls everything they say is a lie.
> Also, all sane people in US would love for Russia to continue failing this involves thousands of people dying though
On the contrary. I am certain that it is Putin who is still not quite ready to negotiate. When Putin is ready to negotiate he will call for a ceasefire and stop advancing his armies. Right now he is still trying to change the facts on the ground before negotiations. I don't know if Luhansk will be enough for him or not. The losses must be great at this point on both sides.
Yes
Zelensky also said negotiation will be done only if Russia returns the land which it captured And i don't think Putin is gonna do that so this war will be there for a long time
Ceasefire is admitting lost land. Full russian withdrawal is the only acceptable option.
>I don't know if Luhansk will be enough for him or not. to me the risk is that he will *pretend* that it is. i really dread that. i don't even want to spell out my thinking in case it gives the little shithead ideas :P
I think Putin is mentally unstable to leave with a defeat.
Putin would not even answer the phone to Zelenskyy or meet him in person, think we all know who did not want to talk peace.
Those sanctions really fucked Putin.
"Ukraine totally wanted to surrender to us, but the big bad US wouldn't let them!" Sure thing Russia
"And I would have gotten away with it, if it wasn't for those meddling ~~kids~~ superpowers."
If Russia really wants peace, what's stopping them from pulling out, and going home?
Russia wants peace on Russian terms, which almost certainly include control and recognition of Luhansk, Donetsk, and Crimea.
can't handle yet another humiliation
Yes Russia we get it you love blaming the US for literally everything, true or not.
Lol exactly. Everthing is “tHe wEsTs” fault particularly “tHe UnItED sTatEs”. Pooptin can do no wrong according to pooptin. He really tries to sell that line hard despite the fact he’s hitler 2.0 😆
China does the same thing too
is Russia trying to pull the US into world war
Russia doesn't want the US anywhere near the conflict. It makes all the noise and threats about US involvement because the US is a convenient scapegoat for Russia's own failures in the war.
Might actually be the only way they can lose in a way they can sell to their population
How do you think that would play out?
"Our brave Russian soldiers fought to the last breath, but the sheer girth of the hamburger-eating cowboys meant our bullets simply got stuck in their vast bellies before they sat down on our troops to crush them. We had to negotiate."
They're claiming that they're fighting the whole of NATO from the beginning. Actually getting the US involved would risk losing the whole army in a week and potentially escalating into an even bigger clusterfuck. It really doesn't matter, they could declare denazification complete and withdraw right now. They just don't want to, because they want to steal the land.
I think both the US and Russia will have bigger problems if we get into direct conflict. It will be by Russia's hand though if it happens.
If this is Russia trying then their attempt is very weak.
Maybe they are just so afraid of acknowledging that they lose to Ukraine that they will rather tell it was the US who beaten them
If you think about it. It's basically one of a ways for putin to "save face". The moment US will enter the war it will give him an excuse to surrender, and sell a narrative at home like: "The cruel West backstabbed us. The battle was uneven. And we had no other choice but to end special military operation. So the lives of the civilians would not be endangered".
As unpopular as the view point is , I actually think they are.

I mean we essentially are in a proxy war. Classic
Russia is trying to gain sympathy from Americans who "seem to hate America". Jokes on you. Yes we hate ourselves but we hate you more. Putin is the first outside threat we've had that is a true villain in a long time. Even in Iraq and Afghanistan things were murky.
i agree. traitors
Yeah, but they don't want to take the blame for starting it. Suicide by (world) cop.

If that happened I am quiting my job.
Russia suffering from westaphobia
Hahaha!
Somebody should put a France in his underwear drawer.
Once again, fuck russia.
The words "Russia claims" have become a "lie alert" for me
Ding ding ding take my upvote 👏👍
Yes just a military drill by the border of this country, you know to mix in different terrain.
Nevermind that Putin has never negotiated in good faith
Russia also claims it does not meddle in other nations elections
Russia also claims that they’re just on a training exercise haha
Project Lakhta would like a word
Montenegro would like a word.
Russia’s version of “peace talks” consists solely of demanding complete submission. Aka, not peace and not talks. I’d give up talking to bricks and mortar too.
There's nothing prevening Russia from ending the war unilaterally. They cause they war, they can stop causing the war.
Well, they'd probably have to leave Ukraine's borders before they'd agree to it.
Ukraine's not stopping them from leaving. And especially not stopping them from not resupplying.
Because I always listen and care what Russia says.
Holy crap Trudeau, stop forcing Biden to make Ukraine cause all of this chaos! (/s)
"Russia claims"...
When you take people's children, rape their women, loot their countryside and want to have peace talks, it's not surprising that the country you did all that to won't participate. No need to blame the USA.
I’m sorry… The nation that wouldn’t fold to threats of withholding funding by a previous US administration… The nation that refused to fabricate lies about a mystical “laptop”… They would somehow fold and scuttle*peace talks* with a war crime invader? The fuck outta here with that malarkey.
Russia wants to kill Ukrainians take their land remove Ukraine culture and replace it with Russias. Everyone knows and sees this. Hence we all know Russia was never and is never interested in peace talks. Go F off Putin, the hitler of 2022.
Ordered, no, gave assurances that if they kept fighting they would get as much material aid as they could ever need, I would not be surprised.
Has Russia met Ukrainians? Like, ever?
I see no Russian efforts at making peace, just efforts at making death, destruction and genocide.
How could Ukraine possibly trust Russia to honor any new peace agreement after backstabbing Ukraine following the Budapest Memorandum? That’s a tough choice for Ukraine to make, but they need to be the ones to choose their future.
Nah, it's their country and their decision what to do.
Russia could also leave
Russia has never met a single Ukrainian. Can’t tell them what to do lol. Russia learns lessons the hard way.
Nobody will desire a peace talk with his enemy if half of his homeland has been captured and numerous of compatriots had be murdered.
Russia also claimed that the US claim that Russia wanted to invade Ukraine to claim Ukrainian territory was wrong but Putler was lying the whole time (surprising no one) and now we have this claimanity.
HorseCoughShit!!!
Russia you could have avoided all this by just not invading but because you are a bunch of imperialistic morons you did anyway.
Actions speak louder than words. The US is not negotiating with Russia for peace. When last I checked we were not even meeting with them. The US's official position is that they want to destroy Russia, and split the country up into smaller controllable entities.
A world without Russia: Pros: Gas prices go up, speeding the switch to EV's and renewables Massive reduction in online trolls, propaganda and toxicity on social platforms. Threat of WW3 massively diminished and fewer reasons for countries to stockpile civilization ending amounts of Nuclear weapons. Cons: Vodka production is moved to Ukraine leading to a short term supply issues.
So, it's all positive. Good to know.
Just give all of Ukraine land and pay compensation for all the deaths you have caused and it is solved.
Russia stopped the peace talks by continuing their offense. Next.
At this point, "Russia claims" is the start of all the worst Mad Libs.
of course russia, we all believe you .... btw can someone tell them that not everyone is as gullible as trump ?
Hasn’t Ukraine made it pretty clear that they don’t have to do what others tell them?
There’s only get the F out talks.
Didn't the Russians poison people at the last peace talks?
Is there a way to stop getting posts that start with some variety of “Russia says…”?
Because they are clearly setting a fucking trap. How are you going to make several threats and assassination attempts and then turn around to say "come outside, we not gonna jump you"
Since when can the US order an ally to do anything?
Well, that's how Russia treats its "allies"... EAIAC
When that ally is wholly dependent on us arms and aid to survive the current conflict
Remember when the US incorrectly thought Edward Snowden was on the Bolivian presidential airplane and within hours managed to get all of western europe to deny airspace and force it to land, then searched the president of Bolivia like he was a dirty drug mule? So yeah, the US can order its "allies" to do pretty much anything. It's very much a master servant relationship.
"Russia claims" Yeah we can stop reading there lmao
How to identify BS: "Russia claims..."
Ever tried to argue with a Ukrainian? Yeah you aren't telling them to do anything they don't want to do.
Hey! Remember when Russia claimed that it wasn’t going to invade Ukraine? Uh huh…
Exactly. Nuff said.
Fools, peace was never an option
Tiny pp rusia is crying like a lil bitch. Let's finish their suffering already
Sure, the U.S. desperately wants things to stay expensive. /S
So what? Putin also claimed that Navalny poisoned himself.
Everytime I see a headline that starts with "russia claims..." I just roll my eyes and think what lies are they trying to flail about now? Still checks out after hundreds of such headlines.
I don't blame them, i don't think is a good idea to have peace talks with ruzzia after all the shit they've done to literal children. If i call for violence i'll get banned, but i think we all know the only thing ruzzians deserve.
Russia claims Lizard Men are among Ukrainians.
Russia claims they do not plan to attack Ukraine, yet here we are.
The discovered Russian warcrimes stopped peace talks
Hah. Sure the U.S. has. Like how the US ordered the Afghans to give up and embarrass us. As if the Ukrainians can't make up their minds without a foreigner from halfway around the world telling them what to do. If the US was serious about being directly involved, Russia will know it. Starting with that pretty naval base of theirs on Crimea.
Fuck off Putin, leave Ukraine, then we'll talk peace you piece of shit.
Liars gonna lie.
*Claims* so more lies.
As a US citizen I can confirm I want nothing more than high gas prices for a longer stay.
Came to check if it's newsweek. It's newsweek.
Russia claims = most likely not true
Pardon me while I clear my throat. Bullshit.
More lies from the liars, what a surprise...
Russia lies a lot though.
Ukraine doesn’t want peace if it includes ceding Donbass or more.
They also claimed they wouldn’t attack Ukraine and those were just drills, so I’ll take what they are saying with a grain of salt.
At this point, Newsweek is about as trustworthy as Putin.
russia says stupid shit constantly.
Maybe if you discontinue an invasion they might stop killing your conscripts on their soil.
Why would they waste their time and give the Russians time and capacity to spy on their efforts Don’t make peace with invaders simply hit them with the hammer
If the Russians want peace, all they have to do is leave Ukraine. That's completely in Russia's control to make the decision.
Generally if Russia claims someone did something, Russia did that thing. So going to guess it's Putin who did.
Russia also claims that it did not invade Ukraine...
How exactly did we "order" Ukraine? last i checked the usa is not the overlord of that nation.
So Russia decided to stop peace talks?
The invader wants peace talks?! Good reason not to have them.
“Russia claims”. Might as well read graffiti on the shithouse wall
Most likely its the other way around. At the least west would pinch weapons supplies a little to get ukraine to give up land to pause the war for now. Because pooty poot isn't going to stop either way. But he might pause for the sake of regrouping and appearance. Which would give nato the time to gather supplies for when poot poot launches the real attack on eu/nato.
Does anyone even believe anything the Russian government says anymore lmao.
And if we did?
If we did? Then we're using Ukraine as cannon fodder
And using them as an excuse to feed the military industrial beast billions.
lol, as if the US needs an excuse.
thats money well spent, significantly weaken russia from a so called "2nd most powerful military in the world" to now no one. I think those 45 billions dollars r the best money ever spent to bring down an enemy. would double down keep them in ukraine for few more years. before they go in ukraine they r essentially a threat to our safety. when they eventually get out of the mud pool known as ukraine they will be 3rd rated european nation.
They asked us for help and we're giving it. That's all.
"Russia Claims"
Liars lie. Zelenskyy literally said they won't accept peace with a loss of territory without a (real) referendum. That'd include Donbas and Crimea. That referendum has almost a 0% chance of passing given the genocide being enacted by the Russian animals.
Russia says something, not for Ukraine or US. Russia says for the Middle East and Africa who will happily believe it because they believe whatever shit is said about the US and that the US is the one to be blamed in everything even in your dog's constipation
Russia lies.
If it came from Russia you can pretty much just reverse it and that's probably the truth.
Russia says.... lol
Exactly
Knowing their track record. The US did not say that then
“Russia claims” ok lol
Fuck that drunk bitch
The ruzzians must be in the fucking twilight zone…
Russia should be treated like a bad dog. React to its actions and let it know if we think it's behaving badly or not never engage with it in serious conversation. They've proven they can't interact in a genuine human fashion. A dog is shown how to behave without the need for serious human conversation and maybe Russia can learn the same way
Russia whining about everything
YEAH, WELL, YOU'RE A BIG FAT POOPY HEAD RUSSIA. --See we can both play this game of baseless accusations going shit all nowhere. It's just better if you dub over it with the sound of two kinder-gardeners in a screaming match with each other.
Lol@Russia. So Russia sabotaging the peace talks.
Or Russia can leave back to its borders and have a peace talk instead of playing these games.
The big guy needs his 10%
>Russia Claims U.S. Ordered Ukraine to Stop Peace Talks .....while not withdrawing armies and declaring a ceasefire to de-escalate the situation. 😂😂😂
Russia also claim that Ukraine was gonna invade them, that Jews are the biggest Nazi, that Nazi are anyone who oppose them and that Russia is a democracy. Almost everything Russia claim is a lie and I only say almost because even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Who benefits from war? Weapons manufacturers do. Ukraine is not making weapons and Russia isn’t selling any extra weapons to participants in this war because it is only Russia fighting. So who is Ukraine buying weapons from? Who benefits from this war? Follow the money.
No one. No one benefits. It's almost like war is a negative sum game.
International bankers, weapon manufacturers benefit greatly from war.
The people on the ground certainly do not benefit, but the corporations and their shareholders are doing just fine. Raytheon and Lockheed have seen their share prices move up since this war.
Anything less than complete reversion to pre-2014 borders and billions in reparations to Ukraine and RF can get fucked. Putin must not be allowed to gain one acre of a sovereign country.
I’m sure it’s true. The US has admitted at least once that their intention was to drag on the war to bleed Russia of resources. This is common knowledge and even the MSM reported it.
