I tell Trump my peace terms, Trump tells Witkoff what they are and then Witkoff tells me Trump's terms that I told him then I say they aren't enough so we both blame Ukraine for me not accepting my own terms and I keep attacking them.

Zelensky said China is helping Russia, and he’s right. Satellite images show a sanctioned Russian LNG tanker transferring 170,000 m³ of gas to a Hong Kong-linked ship near Malaysia, days after Trump sanctioned Rosneft and Lukoil. First documented case of China-linked help dodging US sanctions.

The war, the geopolitical uncertainty and the new arms race started by Putin have left Europe with no choice. Europe must be ready for this race, and Russia will lose it like the Soviet Union 40 years ago. From today, Europe will arm itself more wisely and faster than Russia.
