During their new offensive, the russians have already captured 18 Ukrainian towns in just 7 days — nearly 200 square kilometers. They are advancing in the Donetsk, Kharkiv, and Sumy regions.
Meanwhile, the U.S. administration has done nothing. Trump’s promises to stop the war have proven to be a complete lie. No sanctions. No aid. Just delays, excuses, and more lies.
…………….
Instead of celebrating graduation, these Ukrainian children stood by the grave of their classmate — killed along with his brother and sister in a russian strike on Zhytomyr.
……………….
I am glad to see that Republicans are standing up to Trump and voicing their support for Ukraine.
…………
Most Americans still support Ukraine. Not only you can see it by the Ukrainian flags displayed on their houses, but the data also show it.
A Gallup poll conducted in March 2025 found that 46% of Americans believe the U.S. is not doing enough to help Ukraine — the highest level recorded since the war began.
A majority of Americans (53%) support helping Ukraine reclaim its territory, even if it prolongs the conflict.
A Quinnipiac poll found that 56% disapprove of Trump’s decision to halt aid, and 61% believe he is not tough enough on russian President Vladimir Putin.
A CBS News poll from March 2025 indicates that 46% of Americans believe Trump’s actions favor russia, while only 11% think he sides with Ukraine.
………….
Why is Putin stalling negotiations to stop the war?
The answer is simple – ending the war with Ukraine spells disaster for the Kremlin.
Putin has driven the country into a dead end: his war goals remain unachieved and the economy survives solely on militarization.
Hundreds of thousands of russians make their living off the front — from factories to trenches.
Without the defense sector, russia is already in a recession. Everything is collapsing — only the military-industrial complex is holding up.
But the Kremlin’s biggest fear is the “heroes of the special military operation.” Tens of thousands of wounded, brutalized men, accustomed to easy money will return to impoverished regions with no jobs and no prospects.
A surge in violence and crime is expected. Experts are already comparing this looming wave to the return of Afghan and Chechen war veterans in the 1990s.
So Putin will fight as long as he can. He only pretends to want “peace” with Ukraine. Because peace means the end — not just of the regime, but of the lies it’s built on.
………..,
Sad to see Keith Kellogg repeating russian propaganda.
How is NATO a “fair” concern for Putin? When did NATO attack russia?
Yet, russia is a “fair” concern to everyone who is not in NATO.
……..,………..
Trump’s envoy Keith Kellogg wants to “halt NATO’s eastward expansion” in a major concession to Putin.
Czech FM Jan Lipavský replies with a masterstroke: “NATO enlargement serves Russia’s security interests. Where Russia borders NATO, there is peace. Where it doesn’t — there is war.”
Hard to argue with a map.
………..
Russia launched a drone attack on Kharkiv, damaging a trolleybus depot and more than 30 apartment buildings.
How many more lives must be lost before the U.S. administration understands that russia has no intention of ceasefire or peace?
The only way to stop russian war crimes is to give Ukraine the means to defend itself — fully and decisively.
Appeasement won’t bring peace. Only justice will.

18 towns in 7 days is a crisis. Not just for Ukraine as a country, but for the innocent civilians trapped under filthy putinaZi occupation.
Huge help is needed right now: the Graham sanctions will take time; even if they are implemented.
Much more air defence, long range fires, artillery pieces, ammo etc needed urgently.
Cluster munitions are proven to be effective against advancing filth. Have the defenders got any left?
CBS:
Only 11% think Krasnov sides with Ukraine.
That is a damning, tragic and disgusting statistic.
No it isn’t. Ukrainians value their people above already occupied territories, like myself. A Ukraine without Ukrainians is worthless. Ukraine now has so many friends, even without the occupied territories investors will storm the place once there is peace. Putin knows this. But Ukraine showing willingness to make concessions will increase support significantly and corner those still siding with ruSSia IMHO.
You don’t think that statistic is disgusting?
The fact that only 11% of Americans believe that Trump sides with Ukraine?
That means that 89% believe he sides with Russia or is indifferent.
Anybody demanding concessions from Ukraine to end the genocide sides with ruSSia according to the media.
This is the quote I was responding to:
“A CBS News poll from March 2025 indicates that 46% of Americans believe Trump’s actions favor russia, while only 11% think he sides with Ukraine.”
You are not moved or shocked by that response?
That ordinary perceive that the president of a democracy sides with a genocidal nazi dictatorship instead of a fellow democracy?
I’m moved but not shocked. Just read that ruSSia demands all arms-deliveries to stop in exchange for a truce. I fuck ruSSia but doubt Ukraine would be able to achieve a peace deal even if the terrorists finally fall of their high horse.
