Zero Hedge- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has revealed his strategic plan for ordering the risky Kursk offensive which began last August, and has resulted in Ukraine forces holding hundreds of square kilometers of Russian territory for the past six months.
Zelensky said in comments published Tuesday that he’s ready to swap territory with Russia as part of a deal to end the war. He described that if President Trump gets the warring sides to the negotiating table, “We will swap one territory for another.”
The Ukrainian leader when asked in The Guardian interview precisely which territories Kiev would demand back, he responded: “I don’t know, we will see. But all our territories are important, there is no priority.” Obviously he has the four annexed eastern territories in mind. more
This is like watching Zelensky doing the Curly Shuffle in front of his biggest audience…
This is between President Trump and Putin. Zelensky and his globalist handlers need to stay out of it.
I don’t believe Putin will easily accept any swap that doesn’t give Russia the areas of southeastern Ukraine populated by ethnic Russians.
Oops. Wrong gravatar. My mouse went spastic on me.
I rehect the “ethnic-_____” arguments for territorial conquest. By that arguement the U.S. southwest would go to the Mexicans, (parts of) Boston would go to Ireland, (Parts of) Chicago would go to Italy…. I think that the U.S.concept of “e pluribus unum” can be applied by other countries too. Otherwise I don’t see it degenerating into tribalism or just families.
Soon-to-be former president Zelensky is as irrelevant as Joe Biden.
Ask Zelensky where US money and weapons are now?? Washington at it’s worst. Taxpayers got minus-zip for their tax burden. Not even Honorable Mention.
Negotiations from the position of weakness.
Senseless War that has depleted our military. But that’s the obama/biden/Austin/Blinken intention. Destroy our way of life.
Kursk is littered with the bodies at least 50,000 Ukrainian soldiers, and those who remain alive are being methodically hunted down and eliminated. by hundreds daily. Thousands of Ukrainian (NATO) tanks, trucks, APCs and artillery have been destroyed by Russia, and hundreds more are being destroyed every day.
In addition, Ukraine has committed war crimes and atrocities against the Russian civilian population of the Kursk region. None of this has been reported in our media, but it is a fact, and it is being documented by Russia. They are in no mood to deal with war criminals, and the only reason 7elensky is still alive is so he can either stand trial for those crimes or be hunted down abroad and executed like a nazi.
There will be no ceasefire. There will be no Ukrainian elections. Russia is not going to negotiate anything with the little green goblin. Russia is forming new army divisions on a monthly basis. NATO has been puffing about putting “peacekeeper” troops into Ukraine, but there is no peace to keep, they can’t muster and arm this force, and Russia will deal with foreign forces in Ukraine just like they are dealing with the AFU.
I think PDT has realized these facts, and that his best option is just to stop feeding the Ukrainian Death Machine, and let EuroNATO decide if they want to self-destruct. 7elensky is living on borrowed time and cocaine. He needs to die, either in prison, in a bunker in Kiev, or in the bedroom of one of his overseas safe houses. Maybe he can negotiate that with Russia.
Trump needs to tell NATO and Europe that the gig is up. Ukraine will not join NATO, there will be no peacekeepers from the UN, all the biolabs will be dismantled and documented, all unpurchased US weapons will be removed from Ukraine and Russia Will annex the parts of eastern Ukraine That it has claimed. Nato will then commence leaving Ukraine the f*** alone. If I were Trump, any resistance to this plan would result in threatening to leave NATO itself. Except for the Italians and Eastern Europe, Europe has turned into a bunch of jackasses.
@Sippin’ Covfefe — Forcing tribal groups into being not-tribal groups is asking for deadly trouble up to and including genocide. Tribalism is world-wide and cannot be realistically defanged much less eradicated.
