The US president dismisses concerns Ukraine is not involved in peace talks and says he is confident in success.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has said his country won't accept peacekeeping forces from Nato countries in Ukraine under any peace deal, following high-level talks with the US in Saudi Arabia.
"Any appearance by armed forces under some other flag does not change anything. It is of course completely unacceptable," he said.
Russia and the US said they had agreed to appoint teams to start negotiating the end of the war.
"Today is the first step of a long and difficult journey, but an important one", US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said following the meeting.
Ukraine isn't their fucking country so go get fucked, if they wanna have friends over to help scare the goons away of course they can it's their fucking country.
What... Uhhh... What are they going to do about it? Bomb London and eat nukes?
I know it's escalatory but sometimes you have to accept a little escalation to show you're willing. Just like a certain "Axis" in history they're pushing because they think everyone is too afraid of an actual war. And appeasement directly led to their war because the other powers waited until it was so far gone it could only be war.
But escalating a little to egg their face now, (not bloody it), it punctures that belief.
Lavrov was the first foreign emissary to visit Trump in the Oval Office the first time they stole the election. At that time, our demented rapist revealed classified intelligence that burned some Israeli spies and everyone learned very quickly not to tell the gibbering fuckface anything if you wanted it to stay secret.
Since they sent Little Marco, I didn't think they were serious anyway but now it seems ridiculously obvious.
It's sad how these mental infants think they can negotiate anything about Ukraine, when there is nobody present with a mandate to do so.
Lavrov is as bad as they come, and he can go fuck himself. Nothing he says has any value.
It's not even interesting what they agree on, because it's completely irrelevant. The only thing interesting is how Trump reacts when he realizes the free world combined will absolutely distance themselves from it.
Russia is of course playing along, because they can create discord that way. USA has a fascist leader, that prefer to talk to other fascist leaders, and not the traditional democratic allies of USA.
Trump is crashing USA as world leader for the 2nd time. But this time is worse, and he has done it right from the start of his presidency. Paving the way for a much quicker new world order where China dominates.
Without the support of all the allies, USA is not nearly as powerful as Trump may think they are.
