    From the CBS article on this:

    “If Putin decides not to support the push for a temporary ceasefire, it will dramatically alter the optics of the war and position Russia as the main obstacle to peace,” Peter Dickinson from the Atlantic Council’s UkraineAlert service, said in analysis Tuesday.

    Who out there thinks anyone but Russia is the ‘main obstacle to peace’? I don’t even think that Russian bots believe they’re not the aggressor. What the fuck happened to rationality or even common sense?

      No one, I really hope. But either way this was a good move from Ukraine to throw the ball to the russians as now the orange guy is thrown in front of the bus with his “i’ll end this war in a day” statement and global pressure is on Russia.

      What the fuck happened to rationality or even common sense?

      Very good question. Let me know too if you find the answer.

    Trump has played one side of Kelogg’s plan, cut off aid to Ukraine if they dont move toward peace. Now lets see if he follows though with the other side of it and dramatically ramp up aid to Ukraine if Russia dont move towards peace.

    I hope he does but I’m not holding my breath.
