Putin Ready to Agree to Ukraine Truce With Conditions
Russia is willing to discuss a temporary truce in Ukraine provided there is progress toward a final peace settlement, according to people familiar with the matter in Moscow.

In the first signal of a positive response from President Vladimir Putin to US counterpart Donald Trump’s call for a ceasefire, the offer was conveyed at last month’s talks in Saudi Arabia between top Russian and American officials, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing internal policy.

In order to agree to a cessation of hostilities, there would have to be a clear understanding about the framework principles of the final peace accord, two people with knowledge of the matter said. Russia will insist in particular on establishing the parameters of an eventual peacekeeping mission, including agreement on which countries would take part, said another person familiar with the issue.

This is entirely because of Europe. Trump shat the bed.

Well, the United States wasn't exactly engaging in pin-point bombing strikes against Germany and Japan during WW2. And given that current Russian targeting technology is probably not that advanced over what the US had in WW2, this is what is to be expected. It's not like Russia has Ukranian-level targeting technology or actually cares about what their weapons hit. Didn't you ever wonder why Russian nuclear warheads were always so much larger than their US counterparts?

What kind of dumbass logic is this?

1. Trump alienates all our allies by appeasing a dictator hellbent on destabilizing Europe.

2. Europe responds with threats of WWIII, knowing the U.S. has abandoned them.

3. Putin shows a sudden willingness to discuss terms.

3. MAGA simpletons: Trump’s 3D chess moves worked!

That's one way to look at it, I suppose. It's sort of like praising Caleb Love for missing so many shots that Mondo could get a bunch of offensive rebounds, but OK.

Another way of looking at it is that nobody will ever trust the US again. And another way of looking at it is that the UK might very well have been willing to send in peacekeepers in a true multilateral peace negotiation, with US support, and then we'd have something better.

And another way of looking at it is that Europe doesn't consider the US an ally any more, except in a formal sense. We're like Hungary.

That makes very good sense.
If only "Little Marco" was offering solutions to aid Ukraine, instead of standing back and standing by like a Proud Boy while the Blusterer In Chief aligns us with Russia and North Korea. Zelensky only 'has no cards' to negotiate with to end the conflict when we weaken rather than strengthen his hand, which seems to be the plan now.

Marco sold his soul to the trump cult just like everyone else that hitched their wagon to the man.

If he ever had an actual position or set of balls he's been neutered. He's now just a ball less little bitch.
