Made an effort to establish a timeline of this latest iteration of essentially the same old attempt by the Trump administration to force a peace deal, doomed to fail like the previous three times.
The number of plot twists would have been amusing, if it wasn’t so cruel to Ukraine.

"Russia is an undefeatable juggernaut against which Ukraine could never hope to score victories. That's why it's imperative we limit Ukraine's military size so as to give Russia confidence Ukraine won't attack it."

Vetoomus kaikille mediataloille erit. #YLE #HS ja #Maikkarl: tästä diilistä ei voi käyttää "rauhansopimusta" missään yhteydessä, sen sijaan Trump-Putinin hyökkäämättömyyssopimus tai ihan vaan paperi kuvaavat paremmin kyseisen läpyskän luonnetta. Rauhaa tällä ei saavuteta.

Russians sure talk about sovereignty a lot for a nation that denies its own agency.
You know...
It's the fault of the West that the Russian state descended into tyranny again.
Russia is always the victim, tricked or forced into invade its neighbors.
Blah blah blah.

I mean, Yasser Arafat was also a Nobel Laureate. So was Aung san Suu Kyi, who went on to run cover for Myanmar's violence against the Rohingya. Hell, in '73 they gave the prize to Henry Kissinger.
So, you know, it's a little hit-or-miss.
