Emboldened by the Russian military’s steady pace of advancement & the recent corruption scandal gripping #Ukraine, #Putin has indicated #Trump admin ofcls must push Ukraine harder to accept Russia’s terms.

#Russia insists that to halt the war, Ukraine must cede remaining #territory in the #Donbas region, drop its aspirations to join #NATO & secure the status of the Russian language, culture & Orthodox Church in Ukraine, thus allowing Moscow to have permanent sway over the country’s #politics.

#Ukraine has refused to accept #Russia’s demands.

Speaking at a news conference last week, #Putin said that Ukraine must yield.

“We are still receiving proposals about ceasing hostilities there, there & there,” Putin told journalists. “When the Ukrainian troops leave the territories they occupy, then the hostilities will cease,” he said. “If they do not leave, we will achieve it militarily.”

@Nonilex As far as "Russia's steady pace of advancement," I'd read Phillips O'Brien about that because very small Russian advancements are being treated with far more importance than they deserve according to him (O'Brien is writing from Europe.) 47 will always trumpet around that Putin has the upper hand, but it is way more complicated than that. The MS press has no idea what's really going on and will always inflate any Russian advance way beyond what it really is.

"#Putin to Meet With #Witkoff & #Kushner as #US Pushes for #Ukraine Deal"

This is all boiling down to what it's been all along:

The #Kleptocrats are circling #Ukraine, negotiating just *how* they're going to divide up the spoils

Then, "Kushner does NOT have a formal role in the #Trump admin, but supposedly “played a role” in brokering the cease-fire in Gaza."

#Kushner in #Gaza is circling, sketching out how and where he's going to construct his posh new #EasternMediterranean #GoldCoast resort with kleptocrats from #Dubai

One all the #Palestinians have been #Exterminated of course
