Summary
Vladimir Putin responded to Ukraine’s US-backed ceasefire proposal by imposing strict conditions, including a halt to Kyiv’s military aid and mobilization, while continuing Russia’s own rearmament.
His calculated stance prolongs negotiations without outright rejecting Donald Trump’s initiative, which seeks to end the war while pressuring Ukraine.
Putin also demands Ukraine’s demilitarization, exclusion from NATO, and recognition of Russian territorial claims.
Trump, with limited leverage, may shift toward aligning with Putin’s terms. Meanwhile, Ukraine fears the ceasefire could allow Russia to regroup and intensify its offensive.
The answer to that is giving Ukraine more and more support, weapons and material until Putin changed his tune. Or you play the sniveling coward and start negotiating these earnestly. We all know what path Donnie boy will take.
The answer is for Europe to collectively get involved and annihilate every Russian within Ukraine’s borders. Set up permanent EU bases on the Russian border. Offer a massive ransom and immunity for anyone in Russia who neutralizes Putin and his oligarchy. The mafia state must be destroyed, and a message needs to be sent to the US that Europe will come down on them hard if they attempt to use force on any allies. Fascists are bullies, and only learn their lesson through violence.
Trump does not control the military yet. He can replace leadership but I’d be willing to bet a majority of lifers in leadership would turn against him if he tried to invade Canada or Greenland within the next few years. Better to trigger a civil war now than allow the fascists to consolidate power and fill the military with loyalists.
Yes but European countries have no appetite for war.
hes going to be laying more pressure on trump to force ukraine to give up.
Americans do not want to provide more support, weapons and material anymore. European countries can take over.
Real Americans do want to provide support. It’s the Russian asset and his smooth brain cult following who doesn’t.
Nope, most Americans do not want to send more money and arms to Ukraine.

And other countries can’t send actual troops because Putin will cry about NATO and threaten with WW3 and nukes
