Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelenskyy have sat down for a face-to-face talk in the opulent halls of a Vatican basilica to discuss a possible ceasefire, after which the US president accused his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, of not wanting to “stop the war”.
The White House described Trump’s meeting with the Ukrainian leader before Pope Francis’s funeral as “very productive”, while Zelenskyy said on X that the talk with the US president was symbolic and had the “potential to become historic, if we achieve joint results”.
It was the first time that Zelenskyy and Trump had met face to face after a frosty February encounter in the White House where Trump and the US vice-president, JD Vance, berated the Ukrainian leader and accused him of ingratitude for US aid.
Is he seriously just realizing Vlad doesn’t want to end the war? I really can’t tell when he’s an idiot or colluding these days
If you can’t tell whether Trump is an idiot, then sorry I can’t help you.
The issue is figuring out whether any given statement is due to stupidity or maliciousness.
No no he is an idiot but not everything he does is because he’s an idiot.
Vlad wants to end the war. On his terms though, cause he knows he can get it.
With Trump yes his chances have certainly increased. Though the EU looks more willing to help Ukraine than I expected, which is great.
There was literally no scenario where Russia could possibly lose this war. Anybody who has an even minimally functioning brain understood this long before the war began.
I’m sure folks said that about Afghanistan and the USSR too
Imagine being so historically ignorant as to try and draw comparisons between the two.
Well Putin notoriously was a KGB man who still thinks the worst day of his life was the fall of the USSR so…
Ah yes, the fall of USSR when millions of people had their lives ruined of course would be the day somebody like you would celebrate.
I don’t celebrate it. You’re making shit up and avoiding what I said/the obvious implications.
Done wasting my time. Enjoy the boot 🖕
Chances have been looking good for them. I don’t believe Europe has the capacity to deal with russians by themselves, they’d really have to ramp up manufacturing.
In his mind he’s ~6’ 3", ~230 lbs with an IQ of 150.
He truly thinks that world leaders look up to him and that he’s playing everyone else.
