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: Nobody supports elections during the war. This is something very difficult to do.

But if the American side will push this signal, I am ready to show that we are ready for the elections.

Give us 2 months of ceasefire, and we will go to elections. 1/
Give us security infrastructure. Maybe not 2 months, but we need a lot of days to prepare.

Give us the possibility for our soldiers to vote on how they can defend our lives and our country and, at the same moment, to vote. 2/
Zelenskyy: Sometimes I heard, “We had elections in the US during Lincoln's time.”

We can't compare it. It's not just a land war. Our people are under missiles and ballistic attacks. 3/

Graham: If we sell out Ukraine, Taiwan is next. If we secure guarantees that prevent a third invasion, NATO becomes bigger and stronger, and Ukraine remains free and independent.

How this war ends will shape the world for decades. 1/
Graham: I want to give Ukraine Tomahawks to hit the infrastructure Russia uses to build drones and weapons.

Change the military equation. And pass our bipartisan bill to give Trump tools to pressure countries propping up this killing machine. 2X

Graham: The “world order” you want to preserve failed. Putin invaded three times. Nothing Europe did deterred him. Nothing we did deterred him.

This is a war driven by a guy who believes Ukraine should not exist and will keep going until someone stops him. 1/
Graham: Sanctions alone have not changed Putin’s behavior. He does not care how many of his people die.

His customers must care. Without China, Brazil and India buying Russian oil, he would be out of business. 2/
Graham: If you want a normal relationship with the United States, act normal.

It is not normal to buy cheap oil from Venezuela, Iran and Russia and call yourself a responsible global citizen. China is Russia’s biggest purchaser. 3X

Blumenthal: Putin is a murderous thug. Stalin starved the Ukrainians. We know the history.

Putin is trying to freeze and murder them by bombarding them with missiles and drones. It is a crime against humanity and a time of moral clarity. 1/
Blumenthal: Europe has been at the forefront, at the tip of the spear. The coalition of the willing is stepping up resources.

The US must do more — increase industrial capacity, provide Tomahawks and Patriot interceptors, deliver sustained military aid. 2/
Blumenthal: If we show resolve, Putin’s economy cannot survive forever. He is counting on stalling and stonewalling, playing to the weakness of democracies.

Democracies are messy. We tolerate dissent. We do not lock up or silence critics. That is our strength. 3X

Zelenskyy: Ukrainians are holding the European front. Behind us stand independent Poland and the free Baltic States. There can be a sovereign Moldova and a Romania without dictatorship.

Even one Victor is growing his belly, not his army, to stop Russian tanks in Budapest. 1/
Zelenskyy: Putin doesn't live like ordinary people. He cannot imagine life without power. He consults Tsar Peter and Empress Catherine. He is a slave to war.

He won't let Ukraine or other European nations go. If he lives another 10 years, war can return. 2/
Zelenskyy: Putin hopes to repeat Munich 1938. It is an illusion to believe this war can be ended by dividing Ukraine, just as sacrificing Czechoslovakia did not save Europe.

The price of a deal must not be another moment when the civilized world shifts responsibility. 3/

The unit missed the dismount point and drove straight into Russian positions. The BMPs hit a mine barrier. Russian troops opened dense fire with mortars, grenade launchers, and assault rifles. Yaroslav Shapochka did not return from that assault. 1/ Image
On March 21, 2023, near Soledar, Russian forces killed Yaroslav Shapochka — a journalist, photographer, and volunteer soldier in Ukraine’s 241st Territorial Defense Brigade. He was 48, Ukrainian Pravda reports. 2/
Yaroslav was born on July 8, 1974, in Kyiv. He graduated from the Institute of Journalism. He worked for the newspaper Fakty, investigated drug trafficking and the murder of Georgiy Gongadze, produced documentaries, and worked with archival materials. 3/
