At a quiet Victory Day press briefing, Putin told journalists he thinks the war in Ukraine is nearing its end 🕰️. Naturally, he blamed Western nations for “escalating” the conflict, claiming globalist elites are fighting Russia through Ukraine — conveniently ignoring that Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022 🤦‍♂️.

According to him, as quoted by KI, the West expected Russia to collapse in months but “got stuck.”

Reality check: it’s Russia that’s been bogged down for over five years, losing troops daily and failing to hit its major objectives 💥.

On diplomacy, Putin said he’s open to meeting Zelensky in a neutral country — a shift from his usual “come to Moscow” line — but only to sign agreements, not negotiate further ✍️.

He also hinted at talks with European leaders who haven’t publicly criticized Russia 🌍.

Yup, totally true. But, alas, as every other time Trump lost patience; how long will that last? Perhaps another strategically-timed phone call, (or even a meeting), with Putin could remedy that problem for Putin. Just like…how many times has that happened now? lol
Wondering aloud? Did Russia approve Ukranian Sovereignity in 1991 eight years before Putin’s first Presidency in 1999?. Is it because in Putin’s mind and ego as current Russian President for Life , that he wasn’t consulted before 1999 on Ukraine that he is dissatisfied , or that his belief is retros…

Wouldn't pin my hopes on China, people faiil see that they are only interested in advancing their own interests and there are plenty of human rights issues the Chinese government needs to answer for. Behind the industrial and economic succes the people don't have the freedoms we have in other countrie.

Well, as his death nears and he eventually loses consciousness, for him the war will be over. Everyone else left clearing up his shit, which is what happens with despot turds all over.

Lets hope his assumption is not based on making Trump do something stupid, like banning weapon export or closing the internet in Ukraine…
