  1. He won. US lost, no way to turn it around now, unless America and the coalition of EU states start heavy arming Ukraine. Or get involved with their own military which they can’t. 

  2. USA should have called moscow nuke bluff years ago and sent soldiers clearing stating that they are here to restore ukraine territorial integrity and not to launch offensive on moscow but us public would never have accepted it once some bodybags gets back to usa so it’s a rather difficult situation for them.

  4. these are not peace proposals. these are terms of surrender

  6. The weakest US president.
    Zelenskyy gets scolded and attacked in the White House while fucking war criminal Putin gets a red carpet?!

      He achieved nothing, only parroted unacceptable Putin demands – everyone knows he would continue attacking and wouldn’t stop there and Ukraine will never abandon heavily fortified defense line in the middle of Donbas willingly – that would make the rest of Ukraine far more vulnerable. Ukraine knows this and will not sign for this.

    He gave to war criminal a platform and an escape of isolation, while looking himself more like his bitch. Imagine if Biden or Obama did this.

    He also cynically didn’t involve Ukraine, making it all an obvious farce from the beginning.
    If you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu.

  7. This is just a mirror of the current state of society.

    Nobody have balls to stand up and defend what is right, given or standards in society.

    All the countries should unite against Russia and force them to go, where they belong – restoration of Original UA borders.

    force how ?
    1. Deport all Russian citizens back to russia
    2. Freeze all banking accounts as a reserve fund for reparations
    3. Stop all import/ export of all Russian products
    4. Create international peace operation and remove all Russians from UA territory.
    5. Let UA be a neutral state
    6. give to Russians warranty that nobody will attack them

  8. I am glad to see that Russia is willing to accept America’s surrender. Nice guys.

  11. This is the kind of ‘agreement’ that’s reached when one of the principal parties is not involved in the discussion.

  12. We all know that this meeting was never about negotiating the end of the war. That’s just the excuse to get Trump in a one on one with Putin.

  13. I feel like Trump negotiates the same way I make future plans when I’m 10 pints deep.

    “Yeah let’s get together and work on that project.”

  14. The question is where does the Trump admin go from here? The just got their pants pulled down and spanked in front of the whole class. What now?

  15. These demands are no different from before and are basically asking for the complete surrender of Ukraine and for the West to bow down to Russia. Not gonna happen buddy.

  16. Orange chicken is so desperate to get the Nobel peace fries. He’s willing to just throw Ukraine under Putin’s tank and demand that Ukraine give in.

  18. This is a biased source so no way to verify it but here’s what it says: **Details:** According to the sources, Russia would “relinquish tiny pockets of occupied Ukraine” while Kyiv would “cede swathes of its eastern land which Moscow has been unable to capture”, under the “peace proposals” discussed by Putin and Trump at the summit in Alaska. 

    It’s interesting that this meeting and push towards a deal is suddenly happening just as Russia is about to take Pokrovsk which is a major rail and transportation hub in Ukraine. Taking Pokrovsk will pretty much open the door to the rest of Ukraine and Zelenskyy knows this.

  19. Imagine flubbing a deal with weak ass Russia this poorly. How about you walk in and say, “Do you wish to face the economic and military might of the United States? No? Then get the fuck out of Ukraine”

  20. So this is how he deals? Just get told what’s going to happen & shakes his stupid head?

  21. Maybe Trunk should just give him the Qatari plane, and a golf course in Scotland instead, and we can ask go home?

  22. Hillary Clinton trolled him before the meeting “If Donald brokers a peace deal I’ll nominate him for a Nobel Prize.”

  23. >Russia is making maximum demands

    Because Putin must desperately uphold his delusional “strongman” image and the illusion they are in the “better position” in this war.

    Except that in reality, this “3 day operation” is now going 3 years, with very little gained for Putin and LOTS lost and dead, economy in the shitter.

    There is no such thing as a “deal” or “negotiations” where only one side demands.

    I am sick and tired of hearing only demands by Russia, their “wish list” and not an inch of any type of concession.

  25. This sounds exactly like Putin is just gearing up to finish the job later on. Forcing Russian on certain oblasts so that he can “turn that population Russian” will give him the reason he needs to invade that area later on to “free the Russians trapped there”, like he’s claimed many times before for his reason for invasion.

    However, those are some odd demands considering he was going there to rid the country of Nazis. I don’t understand how these demands achieve his goals. Of course we all know that was pure bullshit.

  26. Putin presented all the stuff everyone already said Hell no to and Trump saw it and is like: This is all so new to me I need to think about it…

  27. So pretty much what we all expected.  Russian wants everything they have now, plus more in exchange for a ceasefire, not an end to the war.  Meanwhile they’ll sit back, re-arm and have a go at the rest of Ukraine in a couple years

  28. Trusting Russia to actually follow this peace plan is as laughable as trying to gaslight the whole world you aren’t friends with Epstein

  29. The war is not yet bad enough for either country to be willing to concede anything for peace. This is like marching into Berlin or London in 1941 and saying it’s a good time for peace talks. No one will listen to you, and no one has a good reason to listen to you.

  30. Trump isn’t a dealmaker. He’s a bully who makes deals which is effective against non-bullies (most humans) but you can’t bully a bully.

  31. It’s a non-starter because it involves Ukraine giving up territory which is unconstitutional in Ukraine. Zelensky made it clear that they’re not giving up any territory.

  32. These are not leaders, these are madmen trying to make their last stand, none can be trusted and none can be reasoned with. It’s too late for some countries but for the US it’s not too late to stop republicans from stealing our democracy. Fight for your freedom.

  33. So Russia gets everything and Ukraine get nothing. Securities like the last time they took Ukraine’s Nukes away and said NATO would protect them. Wow, just complete garbage.

  34. Those terms are still unacceptable to Ukraine, however Putin has actually moved slightly vs what he has said before.

    He is prepared to give Ukraine some tiny amounts of land back, near Sumy. That is new and 1st time he has actually said he will give Ukraine any land back.

    Secondly, he has said he will accept Ukraine gets ‘security’ guarentee’s. This is also new from the Russian side.

    So a little bit of hope.

    The big obstacle is those 2 regions in the Donbas, Ukraine has its strongest fortifications / defenses there, built over years and Russia has tried & failed to capture them for over 2+ years and failed. Its highly doubtful, Russia will ever be able to capture them by military means and Putin wants Ukraine just to hand them over. Ukraine would be crazy to do so, as it leaves them completely vulnerable to another Russian attack.

  35. No changes from previous demands. 

    Trump is a chump.
