  1. So, they are not going to accept USA’s “freeze at the front lines” plan then…

  2. All talk, no action from Europe and France.

    Please back that shit up thank you.

  3. Because France and Europe have really been firm on this situation…

  5. As they should. Hope that war ends but Putin and Trump cannot fathom to lose.

  6. Did Europe demanded respect for territorial integrity of other countries like, for example, Serbia after 1999 ?

    No, they decided to betray their WW1&WW2 ally in favour of their WW1&WW2 enemies, and now they’re shocked it happened to them as well.

    Funny how Europeans though they are above that, well of course it came back to bite you in the ass, what else did you expect ?

  8. Amazing how I’ve become very good at spotting russian disinformation. I should train a language model. Then again, there’s plenty of it about…

  9. if these people aren’t going to help they can at least be quiet

  10. Demanding respect…. excellent strategy against Russia and USA.sure it works /s

  11. [Welles Declaration – Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welles_Declaration) is a diplomatic statement issued on July 23, 1940, by [Sumner Welles](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumner_Welles), the acting [US Secretary of State](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/US_Secretary_of_State), condemning the [June 1940 occupation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_occupation_of_the_Baltic_states_(1940)) by the [Soviet army](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Army) of the three [Baltic countries](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baltic_countries) – [Estonia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estonia), [Latvia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latvia), and [Lithuania](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithuania) – and refusing to [diplomatically recognize](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplomatic_recognition) their subsequent [annexation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annexation) into the [Soviet Union](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_Union).[^([1])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welles_Declaration#cite_note-Hiden3-1) It was an application of the 1932 [Stimson Doctrine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stimson_Doctrine) of nonrecognition of international territorial changes that were executed by force[^([2])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welles_Declaration#cite_note-Hiden39-2) and was consistent with US President [Franklin Roosevelt](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_Roosevelt)’s attitude towards violent territorial expansion.[^([3])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welles_Declaration#cite_note-3)

  12. Europe is currently spending more on Russian gas than they give to Ukraine.

    Anyone who thinks this war can go on without US support is deluding themselves.

  13. I agree but please increase aid to Ukraine to make that stick.

  14. Who’s sending troops to Ukraine, who is going to back this up.

  15. And how are they going to do that? Face it those lands are lost. Unless you’re gonna put boots on the ground it’s time for concessions

  16. Give a shit about orange man‘s ridiculous peace deal, it‘s the worst deal ever and not worth the paper it‘s written on it!

  18. So what is happening is the US administration is willing to call Crimea, Russian territory, like Gulf of America. Everyone else including Ukraine can recognize Crimea as part of Ukraine. Europe is demanding respect that the US not do it.

  19. Doesn’t sound like the US will provide any security assurances so now is the time for Europe to step up. Hopefully Europe will realize this mess is in their backyard and move to vastly increase defense spending and prove to the world they are not America’s vassal! Ideally Europe will provide its own troops to enforce current conditions and exponentially increase military spending. Screw the US for making Europe take hold of the reins in Europe.

  20. Europe and any country really have to back up their words with action. The peace talks with Russia are nonsense, but if Europe keeps backing away from every statement they make on Ukraine they will have just a much credibility on Ukraine as Trump.

  23. Right attitude, does Europe have the leverage though…..

  24. hmm. that’s pretty deep come from a country that still have modern day colony in Africa via French Franc zone.

  26. I guess inviting Trump with all egards to the Notre Dame opening didn’t work after all…

  27. If France is not willing to put actual combat troops there, is this anything except a statement in favor of perpetual war?

  29. There’s are so many bots or dinsinfo peopels in here it’s crazy

    Don’t tell them published Numbers theyMll cry and say

    „But france sucksssss”

  30. Which is what Trump should have done when he said there would be a ceasefire and treaty signed on day one

  31. Just back it up EU. As a Canadian, I hope we back up our stance too. A strong EU is a blessing.

  34. Well, is the US peace plan the following?

    – Give all occupied territory to Russia with zero concession from Putin,
    – And all the remaining territories will be under US ‘protectorate’ so they can mine all the Ukrainian resources.

    No wonder Ukraine and Europeans are not excited, but Russia and US are salivating.

  35. Trump literally gave away the throne. Didn’t get a damn thing in return. Yeah Dementia Donny, the rest of the world *is* laughing at you
