    • This is impossible for Zel and impossible for Ukraine.
      As putler and his sidekick both know very well.
      Cue for Krasnov to bow out.
      The only question is whether he may start helping putler; convertly or overtly.

  1. “Trump also told the leaders that he was willing to contribute to Ukraine’s security as long as it did not involve NATO”

    Meaning that when putler breaks the agreement you will respond in two weeks after telling putler to stop it.
