The strategy we’re going to be seeing from Europe, I think, is to buy time so they can eventually marginalise America, as it can’t be done overnight. Zelenskyy will be pressured to eat humble pie and apologise to Trump and sign the minerals deal.

Count on the NeoAmerica to break all promises.
Look at what the current administration is doing right now!
Don't do it.
Europe will not pressure Zelensky to do any such thing imho.
That’s not quite what you’re suggesting.
I’m not disagreeing with you btw. That is one scenario. Given the UK loan deal that’s emerged this evening I just hope you’re wrong.
He's clearly a Trump stooge.
who apologises to Trump when he gets to fuck with Canada and Mexico?
It was never going to work.
And with so much at stake.
We’re nice to him, and we aren’t trying to rape his country in return for arms.
He also knows we’ll probably just drop the deal a few years after the war is over.
But it might be enough to hold Putin at bay while the Joint European Defence Force is established and armed.
not a snowball’s chance in hell unless something very dramatic changes the trajectory we are on.
Europe cannot trust we will rebound from this.
Go fuck a couch, JD
Standing up for his country knowing fully well that Trump a few days prior called him a Dictator & accused Ukraine of having started the war?
Where is the apology for that?
Should he also apologise to Vance for having allowed Vance to goad & attack him?
If pie eating is in order, hinge the deal on if Trump states on tv Putin is a dictator and invaded Ukraine. Make him say why the US is aiding the Ukraine.
To be fair, if it was written in latin script, I doubt any of the current US administration could read it anyway.
I am sorry you are a pair of wankers. It must be awful for you.

"That was a terrible apology frankly, we deserve much better. But I'm a nice guy, very nice guy. A peacemaker, people tell me. So if we get 25% more [raw earth] minerals, we can still sign a very very great deal."
The visceral hatred I feel for Trump, Vance and their govt right now, I only hope as many people as possible make their lives a misery from hereon in. They deserve nothing but condemnation.
Deploy other tactics as Trump pushes tariffs it jeopardises the $ and markets will come in to play. Discord at home may buy some time.
Whatever happens we have to uncouple and control our destiny. The US has left the building.
Even if Zelensky would apologize, who’s to say that 47 can be trusted once the deal is signed?
Why would anyone think that he won’t drop out of NATO after he got what he wanted?
As I always say, Trump is the Wicked Seducer of melodrama. And the people who believe him are the innocent girls trudging to the workhouse through the snow.
But I suppose it's possible.
- by agreeing to everything America wants!
My late mother's side of my family has a British Coat of Arms, Anti-monarchist that I am, and almost every time I have read your posts I find them truly SpotOn. No on a humble-pie is one thing I observe about Zelenskyy. He is Brave.
-trump got duped in to repeating '500bn rare earths
-got rejected on his deal
-had to basically fallback on the meaningless replacement
Europe’s answer should be more democracy!!
The air superiority is growing in Ukraine's favor, step in and take the drones and missiles out before they do damage.
Quick, easy, and efficient.
I can’t see the logic in Zelenskyy signing any minerals deal with Trump.
