She knows what she's talking about. The 28-part plan is coming from the Kremlin and not the white house.

Tariffs apply to goods, not services. Zero in on the goods-producing sector, and you'll discover that it's hemorrhaging jobs. Indeed, the start of the trade war marks the peak in that sector, and it's been in recession ever since.

Farage can now be easily boxed in to a corner where his only ‘defence’ becomes: “Yes I spouted Kremlin propaganda & Putin worship but, unlike Nathan Gill, I didn’t need bribes to do it.”
It is, once again, a question of whether interviewers have the temerity to shut down his whining obfuscations.

I was honored to speak at a conference “Intent to Destroy: Confronting Russia’s Campaign to Erase Ukraine & Its People” at Georgetown. The mere suggestion of amnesty for Russia's war crimes and genocidal actions against Ukrainians, contained in Trump's 28-point plan, is an unconscionable obscenity.

Ukrainians truly need this right now — even if as a sign of solidarity. And constant, stubborn solidarity goes a long way.

European and Ukrainian officials reject Trump’s 28-point proposal, calling it one-sided and tailored to satisfy Putin. The plan demands Ukraine give up territory, slash its military, and welcome Russia back into global institutions, all while European allies were shut out of the drafting process.

Just another trump "peace deal" - threatening Ukraine.

It's not a deal if trump is just talking on behalf of putin. It is bullshit.

Basically give up your independence or else...

Zelensky is in an extremely tough spot, as the US is backstabbing him by using a real corruption scandal and a difficult situation on the front to try to force Russia’s maximalist demands on Ukraine.

It’s traitorous behavior by Trump and his weak administration

Here is the answer to trumps/putins "peace plan"
🇺🇦🇺🇳 Ukrainians representative at UN Security Council:

▪️ There will never be any recognition, formal or otherwise, of Ukrainian territory temporarily occupied by Russia as Russian. Our land is not for sale.

▪️Ukraine will not accept any limits on its right to self-defense or on the size of AFU.

To join the E.U., candidate countries such as Albania are prosecuting once-powerful politicians, showing that no one is above the law. Defendants see a witch hunt.
