Foreign Troops needed for Security guarantees- Zelensky

Guardian: Reports in its 11.49am post that President Zelensky has stated that foreign troops are needed to show a real security guarantee from the coalition of the willing.

Lets Get Real:

This shows that neither the Ukraine or the coalition of the willing TRUST the word of the Russians or their leader President Putin.  THE West will be drawing a line in the sand, this and no further! The troops will be at RISK from the Russians, they will need to go in full combat mode, if it happens there will be casualties, everyone needs their eyes open to the consequences, it could lead to WW3.

Call between Trump and Putin soon - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 9.55am post that a telephone call is to take place between President Trump and President Putin soon.

Lets Get Real:

The Kremlin will be pushing for ALL demands to be meet, while Trump is a Lap dog to Putin.   MOSCOW will not be happy about the security guarantee given by the US, it won't give a ceasefire to allow for a referendum, Putin in his black heart wants the whole of the Ukraine and Baltic States back, he wants the Russian Empire back, he is an Imperialist, he thinks the end of the USSR was the biggest tragedy of the 20th Century.

15 year Security Guarantee from the US - Update

BBC News: Reports that US offered a 15 year security guarantee to the Ukraine, Kyiv wants 50 years.

Lets Get Real:

The Kremlin won't like this, also no agreement on the Donbas or the biggest nuclear plant in the World.  At least Zelensky got some security guarantees out of Trump, this should match the European security guarantees, any plan will go to a referendum, what if the people say NO.   Thus more Diplomacy to come, while the people of Ukraine suffer and die.
