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]

Zelenskyy: Our teams will meet for the first trilateral talks[Ukraine, U.S., Russia] in the UAE.

The US team goes to Moscow today.

1/
Zelenskyy: We’re building interceptor drones—about 1,000 a day—but it’s not enough.

Russia launches 500 Iranian drones daily plus dozens of missiles. Partner systems help, but they must deliver more.

2/
Zelenskyy: We see this war live—our losses and Russia’s.

Russian losses are the highest ever: about 35,000 killed per month now, up from 14,000 a year ago. Russia sees the numbers and keeps going.

Merz: China is challenging the US global pole position.

China is now one of the great powers.

Washington answers by radically reshaping its foreign and security policy.

1/
Merz: A world where only power counts is dangerous.

First for small states, then for middle powers, and eventually for the great ones.

Germany learned this the hard way in the 20th century. Our real strength is alliances among equals, built on trust and respect.

2/
Merz: Europe’s power rests on three pillows: our security, competitiveness, unity.

We must invest massively into defense, make our economies competetive, and stand close to the allies.

We are doing it.

Witkoff: Trump has talked about a tariff-free zone for Ukraine. That would be game-changing—industry would move in fast.

Ukrainian producers could ship to the US without tariffs and out-compete others. Ukrainians earned this with their courage in the fight.

1/
Witkoff: We’re heading to Moscow, then straight to Abu Dhabi. There, working groups will focus on military-to-military talks and prosperity.

Prosperity matters. Jared and I push it hard and Larry Fink is advising us. He volunteered for the job.

2/
Witkoff: We’ve made real progress towards peace in Ukraine and we’re near the end. I’m optimistic. I spent hours with Ukraine’s team—Budanov and Umerov.

They’re outstanding negotiators. We’ve worked together intensely, maybe a hundred hours.

Putin on Greenland: It does us concern at all what is hapenning there. But we have experience resolving such issues with the US.

In the 19th century, Russia sold Alaska to the US for $7.2 million. Greenland would cost about $200–250 million. 1/
Putin: We could send $1 billion Trump's "Board of Peace” from assets frozen in US under previous administration.

We should use the remaining frozen assets to rebuild territories after Russia and Ukraine sign a peace treaty. 2/
Putin: Denmark has long treated Greenland as a colony, often harshly. But that is a separate issue and not relevant now.

Denmark has experience selling territory to the US. In 1917, it sold the Virgin Islands to the US. 3X

Kellogg: Putin does not want to become Nicholas II, the last Tsar of Russia.

He has sacrificed Russia so much and caused so much pain that he is trying to find a way out. He knows he will not win this war in Ukraine. 1/
Kellogg: Russia is not winning this war.

Putin’s definition of winning is different from mine. He measures progress in meters, not miles. Russia is not in Odesa, not in Kyiv, and has not really moved beyond the Donbas. 2/
Kellogg: This is a harsh winter, especially in Kyiv.

I understand the temperatures and the conditions on the ground. But if Ukraine gets through January and February and reaches March and April, the advantage shifts to Ukraine, not Russia. 3/

“When you recover 100 bodies in a single day, you cannot talk or eat.

The perfume of war is the smell of death and decomposition. It follows you everywhere,” says Oleksii Yukov — a man who has spent 27 years searching for the bodies of the dead and missing — UP 1/ Image
During Russia’s full-scale war, Yukov’s search group Platsdarm has recovered more than 3,500 bodies of Ukrainian soldiers.

Before 2022, they had already returned thousands of victims of past wars and political repression. 2/
In 2014, during the occupation of Sloviansk, Yukov stayed in the city and helped evacuate the bodies of Ukrainian troops.

For this, militants of “DNR” captured him, took him to the SBU basement, and read out a death sentence. 3/
