“Russia has not achieved its military goals, its economy is under immense pressure, and combat losses continue to grow. […] Now is not the time to ease this pressure”, - former NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg

"What started as US election interference has now spread to other countries. We're currently doing the same thing in Germany and other European nations."
THIS is why Putin and his hackers & troll armies have worked so very hard for so many years to install extorted, criminal, corrupt, felonious Putin puppet traitor Trump; why the USA is today so full of RW disinformation, Qanan / 911/ Anti-Vax conspiracies..Sociopaths Putin/Trump destroy truth & Law.
Putin is buying time to reconstitute his army and war chest. Ukraine has successfully destroyed Russia's key source of revenue. The econ is going to collapse. Meanwhile, Ukraine will continue to annihilate the storage facilities, refineries and production facilities. Trump will not be the peacemaker
People forget that the Ukrainian fighter pilots are now flying numerous numerous NATO and United States fighter jets. Nobody hears about it because of the propaganda media. But I know if they wanted to they could do some serious damage if these so-called talks are all one sided
Zelensky's quite familiar with the propagandists. Putin is actually the illegitimate president. Nonetheless, Ukraine has taken out Russia's naval fleet in the Black Sea
w/o a navy. Russia's air forces and defenses are mostly destroyed by drones. Ukraine is an innovative and strategic force. 💪🇺🇦💙💛
I hope people remember that Elon Musk and his starlink system was specially set up for Ukraine reception and usage of the satellite which blocked nearly all of the Russian capabilities to use or find out what Ukraine was doing. It was a big advantage. I wonder if Musk will pull it? Stay tuned
Don’t forget he switched it off to hinder Ukraine in Kherson region. RuZZia was and still is getting Starlink from Iran and Turkey. The Iranian drones have Starlink components. Musk stopped helping Ukraine a long time ago
Only Europeans have sent F-16 jets. The United States gave the the allies permission to send them. In other words, after a lot of wrangling, agreed to lift restrictions on the use of American-made jets.
I mean just think about it, nobody there wants to fight. He actually had to go to North Korea to get thousands of crazy criminals let out and trained how to be grunt troops to go help the Russians. THAT right there should tell everybody!
You didn't knows his machine is dwindled greatly
This is a dangerous time. For the US. Reputations take time to build & 5 minutes to destroy. Bonespurs is making the US an irrelevance. It's been a long recovery for Europe since WW2 with a few hiccups, but it's time for the adults to take the wheel again. The adolescents just crashed the bus.
All signs now indicate that the USA will become Russia’s salvation in exchange for minerals and resources from Ukraine. Do the USA and Russia have plans to divide the country in two and take their respective parts?
Agree. The Finnish president is wrong. We don't need a Ukraine envoy. We, Europe, need to make Ukraine win.
-EU & UK make wartime production of arms for Ukraine, paid by us.
-Tighten sanctions as much as possible.
Дякую всім вам, хто підтримує Україну. Тискливо дякую. Бог благословить вас. I thank all of you who support Ukraine. Thank you very much. God will bless you.
Ukraine can't afford to ignore Putin or Trump, and neither do Ukraine's neighbors.
The initiative on the talks is currently is currently held by power-hungry dictators. Europeans need to claim it back and prevent them cutting a deal before Ukraine's ready.
The U.K. and EU must work together with Ukraine to ensure we can put last Russia and we don’t lose out to Trump caving into Putin and jeopardising European security for decades to come
Sadly the impact would be felt by ordinary citizens who don’t deserve it. Putin & his oligarchs deserve everything that comes to them, if only a financial meltdown just affected them.
Except Trump wants Russia to win. Europe is going to have help Ukraine on its own. With Trump in power, I would not be surprised if he ACTIVELY helps Russia win.
...unless your best mate is Putin who probably has kompromat on you. Oh and you want to stop foreign aid to put more money in the pockets of a few billionaires in the USA
Wrong, totally wrong! If Europe bites the bullet and decides to fully support Ukraine, Ukraine wins--without a dime from the duplicitous US. The Russian military has already been bled out by Ukraine.
Europe has more than enough economic might to squash Russia. It's a matter of will.
If allies stop aid it ends in capitulation - why do you think that would be a desirable outcome for 🇺🇦, for European or global security? What kind of message does it send to autocrats? I don’t see 🇷🇺’s allies threatening to halt aid to 🇷🇺 to end the war. 🇷🇺 must be stopped to prevent further conflicts.
You're absolutely right, but the US is not looking for a desirable outcome for Ukraine, it's not concerned about the security of Europe or durable peace in Ukraine, he just wants to stop the war and get back the billions worth of weapons the US has sent. The US is no longer an ally of Europe or UA.
You are right but the 🇺🇸 is shortsighted. If they allow 🇨🇳 & 🇷🇺 to assert their dominance they are foolish if they think they can remain top dog economically & in time they will lose their military advantage too. Some in Europe realise the cost of 🇺🇦 defeat is too high, much higher than support for 🇺🇦.
I hope the European officials understand that, that it's better to go all in for UA, no matter the cost, because later it will be a lot more expensive.
Europe must emerge from all this as a 3rd military superpower. There's no way around this, our security can't depend on which clown is in the WH.
Another reason is that with Donald Trump everything is a transaction to him. He wants to end it so he can do Investments and Hotel and Resort building in the coming years in the Moscow and resort areas of russia. It's all about him and making money. That's Donald Trump in a nutshell
Think he’s also quite happy to divide up mineral, oil & gas rich Ukraine b/w Putin & himself - Americans don’t need to actually conquer the land as long as they control the assets.
The United States only Imports literally about 3 or 4% percent of our total energy [oil n.gas] from Russia annually. So it's literally nothing.
America has set records of domestic oil production and even sales overseas in the past years recently. If Trump helps Putin it's all personal transactions
Rare earths are rare though hence the ask of Ukraine and the weird Greenland debacle. That is probably Musk’s influence though as he needs to secure access to them for batteries outside of China where he competes directly with the state. As for Donald - he just owes Putin.
I don't understand why more effort isn't put into educating the russian population on the reality of the situation, rather than them just listening to putins veiled erotica.
Slava Ukraini, Heroyam Slava
What I don't understand is how russians who live outside of russia, and who are not exposed to the same amount of propaganda, still believe in russia's narrative.
If they think the current russian regime is good for their wealth - fine. But that doesn't mean they have to believe russian narrative/propaganda in this war. And if they're that afraid of losing their wealth, if they'd show any opposition to putin, they could just keep their mouths shut.
Exactly, that's why trump is doing everything possible to save putin. I see no other reason why he would otherwise destroy relations with EU and Canada!
I'm thinking it's blackmail. Child porn is legal in Russia. Trump’s probably saving his own ass per usual because Putin has the videos. #PresidentPsychopath
I think we just may see Putins dead body dragged through the streets. I’m looking forward to seeing it after what he’s done to help destroy my country the USA.
Whatever Trump and Putin wants out of the negotiations is to benefit Trump and Putin. Ukrainian or European concerns are not in their interest, which is why they exclude Europe.
Europe MUST seize the initiative here. Fully supply and support Ukraine to render any Trump/Putin agreement powerless.
Well, Norway's new finance minister could propose to use more NKR to support Ukraine... they have a gained quite a bit of those with gas prices and increased export...
(Stoltenberg is the new finance minister in Norway)
Stoltenberg trying to redeem his legacy after telling Putin over and over NATO would defend every inch of NATO (they haven't) and none of Ukraine - greenlighting WW3
He’s absolutely right, of course. Is he 🇳🇴 FM yet? I hope he can convince his government to open up their pocketbook further and ensure 🇺🇦 has the armaments it needs to succeed. 🇺🇦💙💛
We in Europe know that Ukraine is not, not the last stop for Russia. We know this because Russia said so themselves. If the US think its going to be bad when BRICS get a foot hold, imagine a Russia/Chinese controlled Euro-Asia (which is Putins dream). Its perhaps not an ideal time to loose allies.
Everyone knows that Vlad is getting his ass handed to him by a bunch of well-meaning Ukrainian farmers, and that's why he's willing to negotiate. Fuck Vlad. He opened this Pandoras box.
If Putin and Trump try to carve up Ukraine NATO should immediately invite Ukraine to become a member and stand as a united military force against Russia
There's no doubt Russia is in big trouble. Not only because of the economy & the sanctions that Biden put on them and all of Europe really, but a lot of their younger men have just fled the country. People have said a million.
Why do you think Trump is pining for a so-called deal? He's Putin's asset
If Ukraine can hammer mainland Russia with Drones and western missiles on key targets like oil storage and refineries it will pay off.
Europe and the UK need to invest more in supply and quickly. Treat Russia as your enemy now not holding weapons in case of future defence. Trump is a fool.
Trust me we are vomiting about what a buffoonish Putin asset that the people in America decided to elect, knowing who he was. A total Russian agent. Everything is transactional with trump. He knows he can make hundreds of Millions in Russia if he gets Ukraine to succumb
Pressure on Russia has to increase. Watch for elections in Europe as Elon musk sending millions to promote fascism movements and interfere with elections. Interestingly, JD Vance also mentioned problem "within". A clue on traitors in West government? Trump is a tool for Russia to kill democracy.
This child of the Cold War has been waiting to have the Soviets in another turkey shoot for a long time, the best since Afghanistan. All we had to do was send money and arms. What's the point of spending nearly a trillion dollars a year on a military?
Russia is a terrorist state
Putin is a war criminal and power hungry
His dreams of becoming Tzar of a new Russian Empire must be stopped
The autrocities continually inflicted on Ukraine must stop
Please stand with President Zelensky
#StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦
Depends on what their military goals were. If they were to capture the whole of Ukraine and install a puppet regime, then yes, they didn’t achieve them. But if their goals were to take control over key resources, then they mostly achieved them.
#TrumpMuskGOPcoup #Trump #GOP are obeying their paymaster #TrumpMuskGOPcoup #TrumpRussiaCollusion #TrumpTreason #TrumpGOPBetrayedUkraine
Now it's #Europe with #Norway and #UK who must #StandUp4Democracy #StandWithUkraine and #ArmUkraineToWin
#UnitedStates can not be trusted
The USA doesn't want to do that. They've calculated that the collapse of Russia would be a bigger catastrophe than allow Putin to gobble up some European territories.
It will be difficult for Ukraine to continue to defend against the invaders if the U.S. withdraws aid, but not impossible. European nations, Canada and Japan have provided equivalent aid to Ukraine. The U.S. does not get to dictate peace terms to Ukraine and Europe.
#SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦 Don't give in to any of the U.S. concessions. You really owe us nothing. I hope #PresidentChoad is humiliated on the world stage "the likes of which have never been seen before."

Say no to peace!!
Say yes to conflict!!
Will profit him nothing to prop up the pillager Putin!
Russians have been waiting for this all winter and last fall. Their stocks are already rising.
Putin is looking forward to end the 3 days SMO.
And with these three in charge is like winning a jackpot
Inflation, diesel shortage, food, especially deary products, is going through the roof.
He's running out of tanks and reserve fiat currency to stabilize the ruble.
Take out a few more refineries and putin's done.
You didn't knows his machine is dwindled greatly
A few more refineries and he's out of diesel and money.
None of kim's canon fodder will lake any meaningful difference and he's already run out of convicts to throw in the forray too.
There are two special elections to be held on April 1, 2025 in Florida.
FL1 - https://secure.actblue.com/donate/gay-valimont

NY21 will hold a special election but, when is unclear

STOP THE BELLINI MUSSOLINI!
-EU & UK make wartime production of arms for Ukraine, paid by us.
-Tighten sanctions as much as possible.
Tighten the screw on Russia AND make sure that Ukraine and the rest of Europe participate in the talks
What the frontline states--not just Ukraine--have to prevent is another Yalta Conference where Europe is assigned to spheres of influence.
No talks between Putin, Trump, and Xi without Europeans present.
The initiative on the talks is currently is currently held by power-hungry dictators. Europeans need to claim it back and prevent them cutting a deal before Ukraine's ready.
Meanwhile, arm Ukraine and re-arm.

Only the Americans are pushing for negotiations right now - WHY? 🤨
If the US stops the military aid, the war ends.
If ruSSia stops attacking, the war ends.
There's very little Ukraine or Europe can do at this point regarding the of of the war.
Europe has more than enough economic might to squash Russia. It's a matter of will.
Europe could have spent this 3 years boosting the weapons production to ruSSia's level, it would have made things much more realistic.
Europe must emerge from all this as a 3rd military superpower. There's no way around this, our security can't depend on which clown is in the WH.
America has set records of domestic oil production and even sales overseas in the past years recently. If Trump helps Putin it's all personal transactions
Extra bonus: now nobody is discussing about the price of eggs in USA. 😎

Maybe it's just in their orc genes.
Apparently there are a fair few tarts as well.

Latter absolutely is better long term outcome.
His being in the KGB obviously too long...he can't trust anyone.
No way, its time to defeat russia once and for all.
Slava Ukraini from the US and I am so grateful for my Ukrainian heritage.

Trumps boys dont realise we dont come all this way, lives lost, inflation absorbed, to hand intiative and get of jail free card to his friend Putin.
On top of that, Trumps boys think they will finalise genocide on Palestine and start war with Iran.
No way.
Take a stand.
Now it's #Europe with #Norway and #UK who must #StandUp4Democracy #StandWithUkraine and #ArmUkraineToWin
#UnitedStates can not be trusted
Because Russia has nukes and Ukraine doesn't.
The claim that Europe hasn't is America First propaganda.
