Ponder THIS . . . the explanation of the #Zelenskiy set up performance.
“As [former US] president Reagan once said, ‘Peace is not just the absence of war’. We’re talking about just and lasting peace – freedom, justice and human rights for everyone. A ceasefire won’t work with Putin. He has broken ceasefires 25 times over the past 10 years. A real peace is the only solution.”
V. Zelenskiy, March 2025
“The president is not an icon.”
“I don’t want my portraits to hang in your offices ... Hang pictures of your children there and look them in the eyes before every decision.”
V. Zelenskiy in his inauguration speech in 2019
#trump #ukraine
Good night under a 5 planet alignment to burn Trump in effigy given what the bastard did. My heart is with #ukraine #zelenskyy #Zelenskiy
"You're not in a good position. You don't have the cards right now. With us, you start having cards," Trump said.
"I'm not playing cards, I'm very serious, Mr. President," Zelenskiy said.
"You're playing cards. You're gambling with the lives of millions of people, you're gambling with World War Three," the U.S. president continued.
"You're either going to make a deal, or we're out, and if we're out, you'll fight it out. I don't think it's going to be pretty," Trump told #Zelenskiy.
Slava Ukraini! Слава Україні!
Statement from the Estonian Minister of Foreign Affairs:
Trump: 'this was supposed to be over very quickly, and here we are 3 years later.'
You mean, according to you Ukraine was supposed to fall in three days, right...
In reality, you have a deal or you don’t.
In deplomacy you are always very close to having a deal regardless.
Trump thinks he can shakedown #Ukraine. The truth is Ukraine can survive without a bad deal. Trump is actually the weaker party as he really wants a political win, whereas #Zelenskiy can only accept a fair deal.
Trump expects the world to bend around him. Europe hosted two world wars.

RE
US could cut Ukraine's access to Starlink internet services over minerals #reuters
That's bad, just when #ukraine is producing quality offensive #drone #trembita (see image)
"#Zelenskiy rejected a _detailed_ U.S. proposal last week...”
#zelenskyy rejected a piece of.. paper. Because #Trump keeps lying about the amount given, MOST of the money aid from the US is given to US companies
The #UN vote comes amid a widening rift [instigated by Trump] between Ukrainian President Volodymyr #Zelenskiy & US President Donald #Trump, who is trying to rapidly end the war in Ukraine & whose team has held talks w/ #Russia without the involvement of Kyiv.
The draft #UN resolution… "calls for a de-escalation, an early cessation of hostilities & a peaceful resolution of the war against #Ukraine ... in line with the UN Charter & #InternationalLaw".

Let’s see the conservative base squirm as Trump tries to enact #putin wishes.
Keep saying no and make #trump support and echo #russia , please #zelenskiy .
#ukraine is the #resistance that all militia cosplayers in the #unitedstates pretend to be.
Only way to deal with a hypocrite is light of day. Let’s go.
U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday said he would probably meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr #Zelenskiy next week to discuss Ukraine's war to repel Russian invaders.
Trump did not make clear whether it would be a face-to-face meeting or a video conference.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr #Zelenskiy pored over a once-classified map of vast deposits of rare earths and other critical minerals during an interview with Reuters on Friday, part of a push to appeal to Donald Trump's penchant for a deal.
#Zelensky says if you save our #Nazis #coup regime we'll let you loot our mineral resources.
"Ukrainian President Volodymyr #Zelenskiy pored over a once-classified map of vast deposits of #rareearths and other critical minerals during an interview with Reuters on Friday,"
" 'Let's do a deal', Zelensky offers Trump ( ie. The US) minerals, seeking security"

Putin says he can’t negotiate with #Zelenskiy because he’s unofficial without an election. Zelenskiy played a blinder and said he would negotiate with Putin, so he is on the winning side of US support.
Zelenskiy did win the last election allowed under #Ukraine’s constitution. Putin stole his.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr #Zelenskiy on Monday criticised what he said was Slovak Prime Minister Robert #Fico's lack of desire to end his country's dependency on Russian natural resources as a "big security issue" for #Europe and #Slovakia.
