US and Russian talks bring no solution to Ukraine War - Russia

BBC News: Reports in its 10.14pm post that the US and Russia have not reached a compromise deal on the Ukraine in talks in Moscow.

Lets Get Real:

The 28 point plan produced by Moscow is in the bin, there is no way that Zelensky in Kyiv could have agreed, his Government would have fallen, thus the European version has also been rejected by Moscow.  The Kremlin is sabre rattling again, they want to divide Europe from the US.  Italy is going through panic attack, as in WW1 and WW2, you cannot trust Rome, they had been supporting the Ukraine, now they have frozen arms supplies to the Ukraine.   This endless war carries on in Europe.

Venezuela and Trump 47 - Update

 CNN: Reports  that President Trump is to hold a Oval Office Meeting on Venezuela tonight.

Lets Get Real:

The drums of war are already going on, it seems that POTUS might want to go to  WAR with Venezuela over its trafficking of drugs.  The liberal Media is more concerned about drug smugglers  than defending the good people of the US and Venezuela from Drugs, the Democrats have gone of the political reservation, the extreme left could allow the Republicans to win the 2026 Mid Terms, EVIL has to be fought in Southern America and the Ukraine.   

US Envoy Steve Witkoff in Russia on Tuesday - Update

Sky News: Reports that US Envoy Steve Witkoff  will be in Russia on Tuesday for discussions on the peace plans for the Ukraine - Russia War.

Lets Get Real:

One has to ask if this is a good idea, it was Witkoff who produced the first peace plan that was very favourable to Russia, it was a Russian wish lit for Christmas.  It has been reported that the Secretary of State, Marco Rubio is more of a hawk on the Ukraine - Russia War and that different branches of Trump's foreign policy term as doing their own thing, and it will come down to whom Trump favours and what Russia will give concessions on, if any.   The Kyiv Government under President Zelensky  will not give up land, it would fall if he was pushed in to any agreement.   Steve Witkoff has never visited the Ukraine, and seems to view the War through the eyes of Trump, the President is very pro Russia, thus Europe has to be firm with the White House, they have to support Kyiv, and be ready to send troops from the coalition of willing in to East Ukraine, as a buffer zone between the Ukraine and Russia.

The issue of Ukrainian land the most difficult - Zelensky

BBC News: Reports that President Zelensky has stated that the issue of concessions on Ukrainian land is difficult.

Lets Get Real:

This will be difficult issue, there is no way that Zelensky could sign a deal that gives away Ukrainian land still under control of Kyiv, his government could fall, the Ukrainian Parliament would say NO, the thing that Trump could offer would be security guarantees that  are approved by the US Senate. Everyone knows that Putin will come back for more in the future.

Ukraine talks " Very Productive '' - US

BBC News: Reports the US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has had talks in Florida with the Ukraine, US stated they were ' Very Productive ' but more talks needed.

Lets Get Real:

This is good news after the Ukrainian money scandal in the Ukraine. This shows the Ukraine is holding firms to its red lines, of no recognition of land taken by Russia, no rejection of NATO, no cap on level of its armed forces, these are firm lines and should be held whatever the pressure from the Trump Oval.  Of late articles in the UK Daily Mail and Sun have reported that Trump wants to recognition the Dobass and Crimea as Russian.  This must not STAND.

Trump closes down Venezuela Air Space - Trump47

Sky News: Reports that President Trump has warned that Air Space around Venezuela is closed to planes as Trump sees the Venezuela Government is illegitimate.

Lets Get Real:

This is additional pressure on the Drug Trafficking Venezuela Government.  The US Department of War has sent in the US Navy in to the region.  The aircraft carrier, Gerald R Ford is heading the fleet.  As stated before in this blog, one doubts that POTUS will take military action against the South American country, it would go against his America First pledge of 2024, Venezuela is not Grenada, and Trump is no Ronald Reagan, he does not have the backbone to take action, his political base would not be happy, 2026 Mid Terms are around the corner, Trump does not need a land War in Venezuela, politics never ends in the US.

kyiv Government is illegitimate - Putin

BBC News: Reports that President Putin has called the Kyiv Governmemt illegitimate and therefore not legitimate to sign a peace treaty. 

Lets Get Real:

This shows Putin true colours, he wants ALL his demands meet, he wants occupation of the Crimea, and all of the Donbas, even those controlled by Kyiv to be given to Russia.  The original 28 clause peace deal was a Russian wish list, the European counter proposal is more in Kyiv favour.  Thus more talks, US Envoy Steve Witkoff is in Moscow next week, thus endless circles of revised peace deals by Diplomats and an erratic President in the US.
