John Kirby, White House National Security Communications Advisor, has said that Vladimir Putin could end the war against Ukraine if he is so concerned about the situation in Kursk Oblast.

Details: Kirby said that the latest claims by Russian officials that the offensive in Kursk Oblast is being coordinated by the West “is all Putin’s propaganda”, which the Kremlin’s head has been clinging to since the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine.
The White House spokesman emphasised that the only people waging war in Ukraine are the Russians themselves, as they are the ones invading Ukraine, which is defending itself against aggression. Kirby noted that this is purely Russia’s war against Ukraine and has been so from the very beginning.
He also remarked that this is Putin’s war against Ukraine, suggesting that if Putin is dissatisfied with anything, there is a simple solution: he should withdraw his troops from Ukraine and end the war.
Since the beginning of last week, Ukrainian troops have been conducting an operation in Russia’s Kursk Oblast. Oleksandr Syrskyi, Ukrainian Armed Forces Commander-in-Chief, reports that Ukraine’s forces control up to 1,000 square kilometres of Russian territory.
The Pentagon has said that Ukraine’s advance in Kursk Oblast is in line with US policy and that it is not concerned about a possible increase in tensions with Russia.

The Nazis are crying like little girls about Kursk and accuse Ukraine of all sorts of things … things that the Nazis themselves are guilty of since day one of their illegal and evil war. This is so ridiculous that Washington should not give a response to this childish behavior.
Besides all that, why should the fascist rat stop the war, Mr. Kirby? Washington is effectively protecting mafia air bases and missile launch sites as long as they are a certain distance behind the front. Vladolf can bomb civilians and everything else in Ukraine with near impunity, thanks to the two biggest clowns in our government, Biden and Sullivan.
What’s the history behind or the significance of Kursh?
The White House is correct, of Russia wants to end the war then pull out . Pretty simple, what ever Russia loses in personnel and equipment is on the head of Putin.
Kirby and the rest of Biden’s administration know that putler won’t end this war. This announcement is just a useless gag. The WH should instead finally untie Ukraine’s hands on deep strikes into mafia land and stop the childish bullshitting.
the current administration has elections to win and for the moment, has no interest in finding uncontrollable hazards on its path before its victory in the elections…
otherwise Kirby is speaking more to the Russians who would not want to follow Putin to the bottom of the toilets…
everyone knows Putin’s psychology, the laws of the mafia, but we can’t tell each other everything and a play/comedy must be performed…
That’s a weak argument. Elections are of no concern for the old one anymore. He should just concentrate on doing what is right before he moves into a nursing home.
