The #masternegotiator at work:
Bully #ukraine to give up territory before negotiations really started.
Watch quietly how #Russia breaks promises.
Bully #ukraine to sign a #rareearths 'deal' with him.
Reject #selenskyj 's request to buy arms claiming he has started the war that #Putin started.
Announcing that #USA will quit the peace negotiations if they don't see progress.

Putin did everything to slow or disturb any step towards peace - surely is the happiest #dictator in the world right now!
