The truth about Kremlin stooges and their sad reality.
Because for the most part they actually want to defend their country?
Something a Quisling/Chamberlain type person like yourself would have no understanding about.
Or is this all the fault of the Jews as one of the articles you shared suggested.
Boris Johnson could have done a Neville Chamberlain to avert
the Ukraine tragedy. By now it is too late. Ukraine has to fight to
the last man or until NATO aid is dried up.The wisdom of Winston
Churchill manifested in the Franco-Nazi armistice he agreed to
(or did not protest) might save Ukraine though.
Neither Ukraine and Russia will be winner of the war. The real winner to
emerge from this conflict is the U.S.

You think the West should have just handed Ukraine to Russia despite most Ukrainians hating the idea?
Ukraine will fight to the last Ukrainian because despite your interpretation of everything though a pro/anti US lens that's what Ukrainians want to do.
Looks like the war may end with 10% to 20% of Ukraine ceded to Russia.
If the west can live with that I don't see why Boris Johnson could not have
agreed to negotiation with Russia for a better deal back in early 2022.
I am sure that is what the tens of thousands of Ukrainians already dead wanted
to do. For Ukraine to continue fighting to the last men they have to find a way to
repatriate the millions of their refugees who didn't want to fight and fled their country.
Why do you think the opinions of the West are more important than the opinions of Ukrainians? NATO might be opposed to Russian expansionism but more importantly, Ukrainians are opposed to Russian stalking their land.
What a surprise; you desperately try to insert your Jew obsession into everything by faking my posts.
And yes, the problem the Palestinians have is their leaders insist on fighting to the last Palestinians to ethnically cleanse Jews from the region. They don't care about having a Palestinians state; they are simply opposed to Jews being there.
In principle Ukrainians' opinions are more important.
Nonetheless it does appear that decision-making on
the part of Ukrainians in the war were once influenced
by the west. Looking forward it is very likely the fate of
Ukraine would be decided to some degree by public opinions
in the countries of the financiers of the proxy war.

Boris Johnson Pressured Zelenskyy to Ditch Peace Talks With Russia: Ukrainian Paper
Jake Johnson
May 06, 2022
The Ukrainian news outlet Ukrayinska Pravda reported Thursday that British Prime Minister Boris Johnson used his surprise visit to Kyiv last month to pressure President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to cut off peace negotiations with Russia, even after the two sides appeared to have made tenuous progress toward a settlement to end the war.
Citing unnamed sources from Zelenskyy's "inner circle" and advisory team, Pravdareported that "Johnson brought two simple messages to Kyiv":
"The first is that Putin is a war criminal; he should be pressured, not negotiated with. And the second is that even if Ukraine is ready to sign some agreements on guarantees with Putin, they are not. We can sign [an agreement] with you [Ukraine], but not with him. Anyway, he will screw everyone over," is how one of Zelenskyy's close associates summed up the essence of Johnson's visit...
Johnson's position was that the collective West, which back in February had suggested Zelenskyy should surrender and flee, now felt that Putin was not really as powerful as they had previously imagined.
Moreover, there is a chance to "press" him. And the West wants to use it.
In public remarks during his trip, Johnson vowed that the U.K.--in line with the U.S., Germany, and other western powers--would continue ramping up its "military and economic support and convening a global alliance to bring this tragedy to an end, and ensure Ukraine survives and thrives as a free and sovereign nation."
"I made clear today that the United Kingdom stands unwaveringly with them in this ongoing fight," the right-wing British leader said, "and we are in it for the long run."
In the weeks ahead of Johnson's April 9 visit, high-level diplomatic talks held in Belarus and Turkey had failed to yield a diplomatic breakthrough, though reports in mid-March indicated that Russian and Ukrainian delegations "made significant progress" toward a 15-point peace deal that would involve Ukraine renouncing its NATO ambitions in exchange for the withdrawal of Moscow's troops.
But the talks have since been at a standstill as Russia continues its devastating and illegal assault.
On April 12, Russian President Vladimir Putin declared that the peace negotiations had reached a "dead end." And while Zelenskyy demanded a face-to-face meeting with Putin in late March, one of the Ukrainian president's advisers said in a radio interview last month that "this is still not the time for negotiations between the two presidents."
"A little later, probably, it will [happen]," said Mykhailo Podoliak. "But we want Ukraine's position in these negotiations to be very, very strong."
Johnson, too, has publicly dismissed the prospect of an imminent diplomatic resolution to the conflict. Speaking to reporters on April 20, the British prime minister said that negotiating with Putin was like dealing with "a crocodile when it's got your leg in its jaws."
"It is very hard to see how the Ukrainians can negotiate with Putin now given his manifest lack of good faith," Johnson said. "His strategy, which is evident, is to try to engulf and capture as much of Ukraine as he can and perhaps to have some sort of negotiation from a position of strength."
It's not clear how Zelenskyy himself responded to Johnson's reported push to halt peace talks. On the same day of the British prime minister's arrival in Kyiv, Zelenskyy told the Associated Press in an interview that "no one wants to negotiate with a person or people who tortured this nation."
"It's all understandable," he continued. "And as a man, as a father, I understand this very well."
But, Zelenskyy added, "we don't want to lose opportunities, if we have them, for a diplomatic solution."
On Friday, Zelenskyy said in a virtual address to the British think tank Chatham House that "not all the bridges" to a peaceful settlement with Russia "are destroyed."

"The British government has become an obstacle to peace in Ukraine," said the Stop the War Coalition. "The conflict there is developing into a proxy war between Russia and NATO and it is the Ukrainian people who will suffer the consequences."

Ukraine ‘will lose the war’ if US fails to approve aid, says Zelensky
April 8, 2024
Ukraine “will lose the war” if the United States Congress does not approve military aid to help it resist Russia’s invasion, President Volodymyr Zelensky said.
“It’s important to specifically address the Congress: if the Congress doesn’t help Ukraine, Ukraine will lose the war,” Zelensky said Sunday during a video meeting of the Ukrainian fund-raising group UNITED24.
“If Ukraine loses this war, other countries will be attacked. This is a fact,” he said.
Zelensky’s warning, among his starkest since the war began more than two years ago, comes as Congress has for months refused to pass a package of aid for Ukraine, leaving Kyiv to battle manpower and ammunition shortages while an emboldened Russia pounds Ukraine’s cities with missiles and tests for weak spots along the front line.
The US Senate passed a $95.3 billion foreign aid bill with assistance for Ukraine and Israel in February, but House Speaker Mike Johnson has so far refused to hold a vote on passing the package for Ukraine.
Zelensky previously told CNN that “millions” could die in Ukraine’s war with Russia if US lawmakers do not approve the aid package.
When Russia launched its invasion in February 2022, it thought it would take Kyiv in days and the rest of the country in weeks. In what proved to be a disastrous miscalculation for Moscow, Ukraine repelled the initial assault on its capital and, later in 2022, reclaimed some of the territories overrun by Russia.
The frontlines have since been largely static, with Russia continuing to occupy around a fifth of Ukraine’s territory. Despite optimism that Ukraine could reclaim more of its occupied territories, its counteroffensive in the summer of 2023 failed to significantly pierce Russia’s defenses. Ukraine’s then-Commander in Chief conceded the war had entered a “stalemate.”
Since the start of this year, Russia – enjoying a huge advantage in manpower and technology – has attempted to seize the initiative, bombarding Ukraine’s cities with missiles and forcing Ukraine to retreat from the eastern town of Avdiivka.
Franz-Stefan Gady, an associate fellow at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, told CNN the war in Ukraine had entered a “transitional phase.”
“Russia is conducting probing attacks along the front line. It is trying to advance where it can. And it is preparing what seems to be a future offensive down the road,” he said.
While European countries have tried to replace US aid, Gady said there was “no substitute” for the support Washington can provide.
“This year, Ukraine really needs US support. There’s certain weapons systems, certain logistical support which the European countries simply cannot provide to Ukraine” such as air defense systems, he said.
Also on Sunday, Zelensky warned that “in the coming weeks Russia will be more and more insistent on dragging nuclear weapons into the debate, threatening, playing with this matter.”
In a separate post on X, he thanked UNITED24’s ambassadors for “continuing to draw US attention to the Ukrainian people’s fight for freedom and independence.”

Sorry, no weapons for Ukraine anymore.
The US is just sending all the bombs to Gaza in cased Israel missed a building or refugee camp somewhere.
Yet totally ignores that Arab numbers are increasing IN Israel Arabs who can vote BTW, as well as Palestinian numbers in Gaza.
If that is genocide we better stop it or it might lead to massive overpopulation. Or is that the plan hmmm
Also totally ignores the continues extensional threat to Israel from it's creation multitude of gang bang wars till the other countries had some sense beaten into them and now terrorist groups keen on again genocidal the Jews off the face of the map. They could live together, but not as long as there are people like you around. YOU are the cause of the problem and Hamas murders their own civilians for people like YOU to get sex nuts and retard strong about and embiggin your hatred of Jews.
Oh wow Cherry picking from someone who literally promotes river to sea genocide, terrorism, hostage taking, rape and using your own people as human shields. Wow, who would have thunk it.
Yup. Israel had been trying to do the slow ethnic cleansing because the international outrage would be too much. But now that they're going full on genocide ethnic cleansing seems a touch less evil in comparison.
Israeli settlers have for years and years committed way more acts of terrorism than Palestinians.
Zionists could have chosen to stop stealing land through settlements and stopped their 19th racist colonial enterprise and just said they took enough land anytime in the last 50 years. But they always seem to want more of Palestine.
That's the problem, not that the people currently living in those lands are resisting having their land taken from them.
