Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 3.32pm post the following, " Vladimir Putin and Emmanuel Macron have agreed to try to secure a ceasefire in the Donbas in Eastern Ukraine, and to put together an urgent summit at the highest level on the future of Ukraine, the Elysee Palace said in a statement......suggests Russia is for the moment to willing to step back from the brink of an full invasion of Ukraine to allow renewed diplomatic discussions. "
Lets Get Real:
One hopes that Macron the President of France is not doing some free lancing or cowboy diplomacy, let's recall Macron is up for re-election this year, and preventing a major war in Europe would give him a boost before the election. The Russians are still demanding concessions that the West cannot give, the Russians could be duping Macron, get the press to think about the diplomacy while Russians troops are starting to enter the Ukraine. The Russians are getting their tanks up and close to the Ukraine border, the Russians in Belarus are either staying or leaving, conflicting messages from Moscow. The real intention of the Russians will be seen if they withdraw their troops from Belarus or is that jut PR for the press. Also NSA, GCHQ in the UK will be breaking Russian codes to see what the Russians are really doing. Always keep an eye on what the Russians do, not what they say, to miss quote the Gipper DON'T TRUST AND VERIFY. The next few hours will be interesting.
