Trump envoy can’t name a single concession Russia will make in peace deal
Donald Trump’s Middle East envoy, who met with Russian President Vladimir Putin last week, said a deal over Ukraine’s raw earth minerals could be signed this week.
Summary
Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff, in a CNN interview with Jake Tapper, failed to specify any Russian concessions in a potential Ukraine peace deal despite detailing demands on Ukraine.
After claiming a "friendship" with Putin, Witkoff spoke vaguely about "territorial" and "economic" concessions from both sides. He also claimed a U.S.-Ukraine deal on raw earth minerals would be signed soon.
When confronted with Russian state TV footage suggesting Trump’s stance aligns with Putin’s, Witkoff insisted diplomacy requires communication.
His remarks fueled concerns over Trump’s approach to Russia and Ukraine.
You're viewing a single thread.
Didn't see Biden make an effort for a peace deal.
Trump's "peace deal" is the violent rapist's buddy "just lay down and take it to stop being beaten up" kind of 'end to violence'.
One literally needs to have no Moral or Empathy whatsoever to think that the victim stopping resisting and letting the rapist finish himself off in the victim with no resistance and then walk away with no consequences is a "good" outcome.
Supporting this "deal" is a pretty fulproof way to out yourself as an unrepentant baddie.
The peace deal proposed by Trump is "Ukraine just take the fattest L known to any country in the last 100 years and be ok with it, and thanks for the rare earth minerals". While the US didn't deliver much support compared to EU.
Wtf is the point of your military if it's not for peace keeping?
The US donated the most money by a wide margin lol we should fuel the war indefinitely and not opt for peace between both parties?
Granted, Trump could have said it in a more neutral manner, I don't agree with what he said about Zelenskyy, he still has the right idea to try to offer peace rather than let it stew into a nuclear war.
You can root for Ukraine to decimate Russia all you want, but war produces dead bodies of all ages and I'm sure you've never seen that carnage before.
You should familiarize yourself with eastern Europe history which is basically "life is pain because my neighbor is Russia" they live horrid poor lives because the aggressor had their way.
Ukraine's future safety is only guaranteed by signing under NATO. Otherwise Russia is simply allowed to fuck around without finding out
This is false, the EU donated more than the US. Trump says otherwise, yes, but he is lying.
Nuclear war is exactly what Trump is risking right now. Russia will go to war again if Trump gives them "peace". Only next time, they will attack a NATO country.
I wasn't going off Trump , I checked sites like statists and others before posting. However , his claim of 350 billion was quite an exaggeration.
We'll just have to wait and see what happens. Trump did say one thing that made sense. There is an ocean between us and Ukraine, the EU should be more involved than the USA.
The EU is starting to ramp up their donations recently. Perhaps that was Trump's intent. Dare we give him credit? Lol
If the US wants to be involved or not is up to you guys, that's fair. It's our cause, first and foremost. But what Trump is doing now is not "not getting involved". He is actively sabotaging and siding with Russia. I'd be fine if he just shut up and minded his own business, but he is very much involved right now and even says Europe should not take part in negotiations. So on the one hand, he says it's Europe's cause, but on the other, he acts like it's his his own cause. It's once again Trump being Trump.
The path toward peace is not "let the blatant aggressor get everything they want without concessions." Usually, if you want peace, you tell the instigator to knock it off or MAKE them knock it off. Otherwise, all that's learned is they can do it again, consequence-free.
Y'all never cease to amaze me with how ignant you can be
Ignant? Have you ever been in war? I'd rather see peace in that region. I know you hate Putin mostly because you associate him with Trump, that's "ignant" lol
No, I hate Putin because he’s a fascist piece of shit and a murderer. Lmao been hating him since before Trump was ever a household name… don’t give him that kind of credit I didn’t pay attention to him until he started campaigning for the 2016 election.
That actually made me laugh out loud. Putin is 1000x worse and more dangerous than Donald Drumpf’s clown-ass
That's good, I'm glad you hate Putin for the right reasons
I couldn't care less about what a lying fascist enabler like you think about it.
Because Russia did not want peace. "Why are Russia interested in a peace deal now then?", you might ask. Because Trump is not going to negotiate them a peace "deal". He is going to give them victory.
