Trump adviser says Ukraine focus must be peace not retaking territory
Trump adviser says Ukraine focus must be peace not retaking territory
Bryan Lanza tells the BBC there needs to be an "honest conversation" with Kyiv and returning Crimea is not a US priority.
"Crimea is gone" according to a Republican adviser to Trump, who said that regaining Ukrainian sovereignty over Crimea is "not the goal of the United States".
The Russian withdrawal from Ukrainian territory is the fastest way to any peaceful resolution...
Ukraine will have to give back all its gains in Russia. Russia won't have to give back anything. And Ukraine will be restricted in its ability to join alliances. That will be the deal. The only question is whether Zelensky is forced to step down as well.
Trump is Putin's bumboy and will do anything he says.
Hand puppet
They're the same picture
And, I assume, by giving up the rest of its territory.
Dude, fucking spoiler alert man, wtf?
Peace through capitulation. What a strong leader we’ve empowered.
"But he never started a war!"
Just surrendered in Afghanistan (and left Biden to finish the withdrawal), sold out the Kurds, sent weapons to the Saudis to massacre Yemenis, tried (and failed) to start a war by assassinating an Iranian general, and made the shitty fake Middle East peace deal that invited Netanyahi to start the Gaza genocide.
We will have peace for our time.
Not a week after the elections and Putin is already pushing the trump team to get shit done
Don't worry, the same people saying that genocide is unacceptable will be cheerleading for the genocide of Ukrainians.
Hey, easy there.
They also don't give a shit about the genocide of Mexicans in America either.
I wouldn't normally consider antisemitism, but maybe that's why they only care about Palestinians and literally nobody else. Or maybe it's just their own special version of racism.
As a brown person in America they clearly don't care about genocide here.
Maybe it's like champagne, it's only genocide when in the genocide region of Israel, when Russia does it it's just sparkling ethnic cleansing.
In other words, rewarding Russia's aggression. Putin says "jump," Trump says "How high?"
Putin says "Deeper"
Trump says "Hlaotheep-larg-larg?"
I imagine those two like a frame from an S Clay Wilson comic.
That's the worst. If it's worth it in the end, this will not be tge last war in Europe.
This is the definition of appeasement, and it historically never works out for the president who tries it.
But then again, the president has never been a Russian asset before, so who knows, maybe it'll work out exactly as he expects.
Russia owns these bitches.
“Be peace, not win.”
Can biden/ Harris spend the next few months sending over a couple of squadrons of aircraft, spares/ supplies and arms to place Ukraine in a much better position? He cat exactly take them back.
Possibly a 1 month intense training for pilots as well.
They can only send what's been allocated, and maybe a little wiggle room on certain things, but otherwise congress would need to approve it. They're already trying to make sure they use up the last of what was allocated before the end of the year.
Don't concentrate on the tanks rolling through your living room, concentrate on peace.
Guessing their sudden desire for peace is very selectively applied. @news@lemmy.world
It's the peace of the graveyard.
That shit didn't take long :-(
Surprise surprise surprise 🙄
I’ve a feeling that the “peace” he’s talking about will only happen once he ends all US aid to Ukraine thereby enabling his handlers in Russia to roll on in and take control.
