Putin to reject Trump’s peace offer. New Russian conditions demand concessions from the U.S., not just Ukraine:
“Kellogg comes to Moscow with his plan, we take it and tell him to screw himself, because we don’t like any of it.”
1/
The Russian conditions for negotiations
1. Reversal of U.S. Support for Ukraine:
Cease the provision of advanced long-range weapons to Ukraine [So, it is finally hurting! Great!]
Remove President Volodymyr Zelenskyy from power [How? Kill him?]
2/
2. Territorial Concessions
Ukraine must formally cede four occupied regions to Russia [This is impossible as it would violate the Ukrainian Constitution]
Commit to never joining NATO [The same here] 3/
3.High-Level Global Negotiations:
Trump and Putin must meet to discuss a “general agreement” on the global order, security and geopolitics, the Middle East and Russia-China relations
[This is delusional non-sense as the U.S. doesn’t have formal power over other countries] 4/
Acknowledge Ukraine as part of Russia’s core sphere of influence
[Basically, surrender Ukraine to Russia and make it a province. Won’t happen!] 5/
4. Sanctions Relief:
Full rollback of Western sanctions imposed on Russia
6/
5. Recognition of Russia’s Position in Global Affairs:
A long-term peace agreement must validate Russia’s global strategic interests
[I think they mean Russian right to dictate other countries policies] 7/
6. Broader Conditions for Peace:
Address other international flashpoints and establish a new global framework for peace and security
[New United Nations? With Russian at the chair seat?] 8/
There are explicit threats if demands are not met:
Escalation, including the potential use of tactical nuclear weapons, leading to catastrophic consequences and a radiation zone in Ukraine
[Russia is nuts and Trump will have his plate full with these idiots] 9/
Continued strengthening of Russia’s economy and alliances (China, Iran, North Korea) through confrontation
[At least, they are honest about who they are - barbarians who want to get their way by force, and so must be stopped by force]
