Summary
Vladimir Putin responded to Ukraine’s US-backed ceasefire proposal by imposing strict conditions, including a halt to Kyiv’s military aid and mobilization, while continuing Russia’s own rearmament.
His calculated stance prolongs negotiations without outright rejecting Donald Trump’s initiative, which seeks to end the war while pressuring Ukraine.
Putin also demands Ukraine’s demilitarization, exclusion from NATO, and recognition of Russian territorial claims.
Trump, with limited leverage, may shift toward aligning with Putin’s terms. Meanwhile, Ukraine fears the ceasefire could allow Russia to regroup and intensify its offensive.
The U.S. secured control of Afghanistan in about two months, as everybody expected. Ukraine can’t win the war, whatever winning means…
You have incredible but completely missed confidence in Russian military and Russia on general.
You have incredible but unfortunately completely unrealistic confidence in the Ukrainian military, and in Ukraine in general.
Ukraine has stopped the worlds second army and made them deplete All weapons they had.
