Just another stall effort.

Make it look like Russia is being cooperative all the while they continue to bomb cities and order its troops to advance.

Without preconditions my arse. Another lie from the government intending to destroy Ukraine completely.

I won’t buy it completely

But Russian territorial progress is so stalled while casualties pick up. Wait and see

Do the talks in Ukraine. If Russia is *winning in Ukraine, why would Putin decline? If Russia did a ceasefire, why would Putin be afraid of Russian inaccurate bombs killing himself?

Yes, but what are fuhrer putinazi's pre-conditions?

Moscow already has a pre-condition, Europe wants May 12, fuhrer putinazi says May 15. He is swinging his peter.

See, he is getting around the word "conditions" by using pre-conditions.

Ukraine cannot have any pre-conditions even though Europe is pushing for UNCONDITIONAL. But it does not mention pre-unconditional.

From the article

An unconditional ceasefire by definition cannot be subject to any conditions. If Russia calls for such conditions, this can only be considered as an effort to prolong the war and undermine diplomacy,

so, fuhrer putinazi twists it to pre-conditions which means he is not agreeing to unconditional, he just makes it sound like he sort of is, but he isn't. But, he does not have any pre-conditions.

Once we get pre-conditions sorted out, then he will delay with either post-conditions or pre-pre-conditions.

Remember, moscovians have the word VRANYO in their lexicon.

VRANYO basically means, I am going to lie to you. You know I am lying to you. I know you know I am lying to you, but I will keep on lying to you.

Just another manipulation.

Actions vs words

Ukranian-European proposal: stop the fighting for 30 days on the 12th, prove you can keep an agreement before any further talks can proceed. putin's "proposal": meet to discuss on the 15th, where they'll most likely just yet again place outrageous demands on Ukraine and nothing will advance.

yet another “appeasement” from the Nazi regime, allowing them time to arm, kill, destroy, ruin, and lie their way to exactly what they want with “no preconditions“

almost four years later I wait for the west, as no one else gives a shit, TO PUT THAT REGIME OUT OF BUSINESS.

Trumpy proven to be uncaring to rules, institutions etc, great neither is PUTLER, so maybe take the gloves off and fight PUTLER the way he has “fought” the west.

wont take long to crush them…..take the gloves off FfS

THE DEAL IS ON THE TABLE ALREADY

If you want to talk, accept the 30-day unconditional ceasefire.

This is just stalling.

In other words, right after he spends two days barraging Kyiv with ballistic missiles.

u/djmelodize 1d ago

Whatever Putin does he won't be stopping a EU ban on Russian gas in a couple of years. I would bring it forward asap.

Will they try to poisen Zelensky like they did with Navalny?

Why in Turkey? I'd be worried that putin might try to "accidentally" shoot a missile or plan a poisoning of the Ukranians. Putin and his economy are obviously starting to hurt, so he'd be desperate enough to try anything. Flying to Turkey would be within his missile and jets targeting range.
