Trump got played by Putin. Again. He accepted Putin’s position on Ukraine as his own. Ukraine and Europe are now alone, needing to increase pressure on Russia and supporting its fight on the battlefield. It’s a terrible day for peace, security, and transatlantic relations.

For all Trump’s talk that his meeting with Putin was “a 10”, made “great progress” and was “successful,” Putin didn’t budge an inch. His demands—an end to Ukraine’s sovereignty and rolling back NATO’s eastward enlargement—remain unchanged. To maintain otherwise is delusional.

Krushchev was rescuing Crimea when he made it Ukrainian — it must remain so
The path to sustainable peace runs through a Ukrainian Crimea — not a Russian-occupied one.

The value of the 1700+ nuclear weapons Ukraine gave away in 1994 was $2 trillion. Under the USSR, these weapons were aimed at the US. During negotiations, Ukraine offered to give them to America. Instead the US insisted they go to russia. We agreed because we trusted their promise to protect us.

As of 7 AM today, Ukraine has ceased Russian gas transit through its territory. A substantial step in cutting off a key lifeline for the Putin regime's global terror operations. Whether by ship or pipeline, Russian energy has no place in the civilized world.
