Stupid question ... I don't believe the BS coming out of the USA; too stupid to take seriously.
but.....
Do we in the EU actually want the war Ukraine to stop?
We say we do all the time; but we are not ready to fight russia yet; and while Ukraine fights; russia can't attack any one else ...

So; the russians finally admit they won't do any consessions, and they won't accept anything other then total Ukrainian surrender. Why is everybody still talking about negotiating? Seems pretty waste of time like this; ONLY solution: send every weapon you don't need yourself to Ukraine.

❗La Russia deve uscire dall’Ucraina in ginocchio,implorando pietà
L'analista politica Jessica Berlin sul piano di pace per l'Ucraina:
⚠️Il piano USA-Cremlino non distruggerà solo l'Ucraina e metterà in pericolo l'Europa:ogni dittatore del mondo lo interpreterà come un messaggio che l'aggressione paga

These days; you need to take everything with a grain of salt ...

But I get the impression the grains of salt get bigger.

That's a cows licking block of salt.

Also strange; the UN condems Israel because it does 4 out of 5 of the criteria for genocide; while russia does 5 out of 5 and gets ... silence ... nothing, not even a harsh memo?

I mean... is the UN really trying to undermine itself into irrelevance and ridiculous oblivion? It's almost by design..

Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, hamas tried to do the same to Israel.
If there is a line drawn, and we declare "Palestine" a sovereign nation; and both Israel and Palestine agree to STOP killing eachother and live together like neighbours; wouldn't that make the world a better place?

I wonder how many people have tought about the effects of rewarding russia for their agressive invasion.
1. all international borders become invalid.
2. new global nuclear arms race.
3. rules out the window; might-makes-right.
4. Global arms-race.

Hmmm maybe invest in defense and military stocks ..

Can you imagine a country bombarded daily by hundreds of missiles, bombs and drones, aimed at civillian infrastructure, hospitals and appartement buildings; while the world DOES NOTHING? Not even a strong word to condemn this blatant genocide?
I am utterly disgusted by the cowardice of our leaders.

Dus bij de eerste ontsteking van een Iraanse raket staan de amerikanen klaar om dingen uit de lucht te schieten om Israël te beschermen, maar ze laten rusland gewoon elke dag een paar honderd raketten / drones in oekraïne schieten voor 3 jaar?
Twee maten 2 gewichten zou ik zeggen ....

Wondering about the war in Ukraine and the Istanbul negotiations... When is the world going to learn you cannot negotiate with ruzzians; and they truly don't want peace ?

If I were Ukraine, I'd look into getting my own nukes, because that's obviously the only way to guarantee safety.

The more I think about D. Trump in the USA; and specifically his actions; the less I understand why the americans voted for him. Besides the oligarchs; nobody is going to benefit from this term at all; on the contrary; it's going to be a disaster.
Soooo why let this happen? Why sell out to russia?❓

Romania has now barred Calin Georgescu, a conspiracy theorist and fascist sympathizer, from running for president, after he broke electoral laws. I wrote about him and the world he comes from in February:

After 3 heavy belgian beers; and starting to feel the woozy alcohol fog; I wonder.
Could I have given one or two beers to improve the Ukrainian situation? Why don't our leaders grasp the significance of this conflict?
So frustrating.... ah well; there's always whisky. 🥃

Very few people think about the difficult situation in Ukraine; and even fewer about what comes next.
The sanctity of international recognized borders is at stake; the UN has already been reduced to a rambling collection of impotent irrelevant politicians.
Why don't western people do more?

How can people still support russia in it's barbaric genocidal invasion in Ukraine?
And why aren't we doing more to wipe out the modern day nazis reincarnated ?

How do pro-russian people live with themselves knowing Anders B. Breivik shaved a "Z" on his head in support for putins invasion of Ukraine? I mean... This lunatic murdered 77 people; and you want to be on his side? Seriously?
