President Trump on Russia's war against Ukraine: "I think that Russia would like to make a deal,&we've had it back and forth." Comment from me: within the past few days, Putin killed over 70 civilians in Ukraine, including children. I think that speaks very loudly regarding his peace intentions.

Trump is lying when he says Zelensky was offered many deals. Ukraine hasn’t been offered ANY deals. They've been repeatedly pressured to make concessions in exchange for NOTHING but a promise to start peace talks. Meanwhile, russia has repeated non-stop that it intends to achieve ALL its goals.

1/ Russian sources expect that as well as purchasing Russian oil and diesel, Donald Trump will provide Russia with spare parts to repair the refineries damaged by Ukrainian drone strikes. They anticipate that Trump's fuel deal will lead to a Russian victory. ⬇️

Maybe the most amazing aspect of the Russo-Ukraine War is that Russia is getting backing from both China and the USA, the two largest powers of the moment--and Ukraine could still emerge triumphant as long as Europe backs it stoutly.

Russians have seen from earlier US and European response that they can commit extreme war crimes and nothing will change. From a strategic point of view not only do war crimes make sense the Russians are practically being encouraged to commit them. This is the war we have created in the modern world
