“Right now is one of the most difficult moments in our history. The pressure on Ukraine is at its peak. The country may face a very tough choice: either a loss of dignity or the risk of losing a key partner,” the president said.

    I wonder how much of this is an act by Ukraine. Appearing to look like being open for peace talks is always better than outright rejecting it. Even when the proposal is a joke. Zelenskyy said it himself in the article.

    Let’s not forget the last few months. That orange fuck changes his mind all the time. I wonder what the next weeks will bring.

      The unfortunate reality is that there is no real advantage for Ukraine in calling Trump out on his bullshit and condemning the idiotic plan, no matter how much they deserve it.

      Trump is a narcissistic moron with dementia. He doesn’t give a shit about the details and he has no principles, he just wants whatever makes him feel like a tough guy that people fear and respect. Fighting him will just lead to a temper tantrum. Better to give him empty words and hollow victories while avoiding any meaningful capitulation.
