  3. Russia is ramping up rhetoric. It is realizing that it barely had power for a push that resulted in significant losses when Ukraine was struggling for help. So, further pushes will be more losses.

    “Let’s talk about piss as if we are in a position of power… I mean, peace”

    “But you said piece. Ukraine won’t let you keep any piece.”

  5. Since Putin is an unelected dictatorship I guess that means he can’t negotiate for Russia

  7. Wait wait, so he meets old Victor in Minsk pretending he has authority in Kyiv? That’s rich, even for Putin,

  8. “Nice former President you have there. Shame if something happened to him.”

    Seems like Ukraine is leaving Yanukovych alone. I can’t imagine he would be walking around if they wanted him gone.

  9. 😂😂😂😂😂. Putler’s day is over… One day russia might become civilized until then they can FO.
    au revoir les barbares 👍

  11. What people say is less important than why they say it. This is his first mention of a negotiated peace.

    Which probably means they’re weak and not willing or able to do more than they already have.

    There’s no negotiating with him. He’ll try to have the US and others negotiate on Ukraine’s behalf and hope that they’ll withdraw support, at which point he’ll just invade again, like the North Vietnamese did.

    No, Vlad. There is no peace talks worth having with you. You’ve chosen national and personal destruction, and nobody should let you off the hook.

  14. **Despite putin’s trolls who protest**, russia will not stop at Ukraine as Hitler didn’t stop at Poland. If we let putin win, they will attempt to take over Europe. *History* is the guide to a dictators actions.

  15. One of the many reasons that you can’t trust the Russians in any way, aside from the fact that they are completely untrustworthy, is also because they are amateurishly inconsistent. Over the last 48 hours we’ve heard about how Putin might want a ceasefire, and now it’s that they won’t deal with Zelensky (which is fine with Zelensky, I imagine).

    A common theme with how Russia deals with the world diplomatically is that they just spout nonsense and then look offended when called on it.

  16. The west is familiar with suspension of elections during existential defensive wars. This is not a gotcha to anyone from a European nation. Not sure what FSB are thinking throwing effort at this narrative.

  18. Who gives a flying fuck what Herr Putler thinks or says

  19. Lol Putin is such a fucking joke.

    A tyrant pointing fingers at an Embattled Democratic leader whose country he is actively attacking.

    If Forrest Gump was Russian but without any of the talent.

  20. Perhaps he should ask Yanukovych for a ceasefire.

  22. Their first plan was to rush Kiev and then install Yanukovych again. This failed and it took over 2 years to come up with this plan?

    😂

  23. I can see where he might make an argument about Zelensky’s term expiring. A wrong one, given the UA constitution and continued international recognizance of him on those grounds…but there would be a logic to his argument.

    But then he implies Yanukovich is the one who could make the deal? What is he smoking, propaganda and bullshit notwithstanding?

  24. Hey, Vladimir, it’s Zelensky who’s the acclaimed comedian. You need to keep your day job…. On second thought, you don’t need that job either. You’re vastly underqualified for the role. Go back to being a schoolyard bully where you belong. On second thought… No one wants bullies in a school yard either.

  25. Huge change by Putin, publicly admitting Zelensky was legitimately elected!

  27. We all know the value of treaties signed by Russia. With an actor like Russia a peace treaty doesn’t mean peace. It just means less violence, but not even the absence of hostilities. And it’s temporary.

    For Ukraine, having a peace treaty with Russia is marginally better than being at war with them, and in the case of Ukraine it’s just a matter of time until Russia starts the war again if they ever sign a peace treaty.

    Russia has proven that as a neighbour of Russia, the only chance for a peaceful future is being a NATO member. Even aligning with Russia doesn’t help, as the case of Armenia has shown.

  28. I think this is a disaster for Putin since yanokovich was dreadful for Ukraine. Most likely the people will unify even more in resistance against russia. 

  29. What is the matter putin? Military command falling apart? Artillery barrels melting? Economy in trouble? Troops starting to balk at suicidal meat assaults while charging in Chinese golf carts? Mighty Black Sea fleet sunk or in hiding? Is your mafia gas station burning down? Are you afraid the west might not only keep helping Ukraine, but lift weapon use restrictions? Does it trouble you that mighty russia cannot even take a city a few miles outside your border from a country a fraction of your size?

    What is troubling you Vlad?

  30. The hypocrisy of penis head is astounding. This coming from the guy who imprisoned his rivals and killed others to win a sham election.

  31. RAZE MOSCOW TO THE GROUND
    RAZE GAZA TO THE GROUND
    FUCK RUSSIA
    FUCK PALESTINE

    EVIL IN THIS WORLD MUST FAIL
    Nazis and Communists are cut from the same cloth. You don’t have to love one to hate the other, and they are both their own forms of “elected” fascism.

  34. Too bad for Putin that the Ukrainian Constitution says (a) no elections during martial law, and (b) a President’s term and Rada terms continue until the next election.

  35. Please let Yanukovych step one foot in Ukraine. I would delight in watching him get the Muammar Gaddafi treatment.
