The US on the Russia - Ukraine Peace Deal - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 7.02pm post the following, " Biden: We'll see if Russia follows through on plans to de-escalate....As we've been reporting, the UK and US have urged caution, after Russia said it would "drastically reduce" attacks in Kyiv and Chernihiv...."We’ll see if they follow through what they’re suggesting. There are negotiations that continued today, one in Turkey and others.  "

Lets Get Real:

POTUS is right to be cautious, the Russians lied pre invading the Ukraine, how many times as President Macron phoned PUTIN and been give the run around.  The Russian Bear can never be trusted, the Russians broke INF Treaty, a foundation of nuclear disarmament by cheating, the US was right to revoke the agreement, the Russians can neve be trusted, thus we shall see if the Russian Army cuts back on its bombing of Kyiv and Chernihiv, it has been stated that Chernihiv was becoming another Mariupol, and what what about Mariupol, will the Russians allow the people to leave, will they stop the bombing.   It what's the Russians do that counts, the next few hours and days should tell us what the Russians are really up too in the Ukraine.  The West has to be wary that any PEACE DEAL will be short term and that Russia will try again under Putin to invade the Ukraine and the US and the UK will be left to fight back, as part of the security guarantee,  in other words WW3.

Biden talks to Western Leaders over the issue of Ukraine - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

White House: Has a readout of the call between POTUS and Western Leaders, " President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. spoke today with President Emmanuel Macron of France, Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany, Prime Minister Mario Draghi of Italy, and Prime Minister Boris Johnson of the United Kingdom.  The leaders affirmed their determination to continue raising costs on Russia for its brutal attacks in Ukraine, as well as to continue supplying Ukraine with security assistance to defend itself against this unjustified and unprovoked assault.  They reviewed their efforts to provide humanitarian assistance to the millions affected by the violence, both inside Ukraine and seeking refuge in other countries, and underscored the need for humanitarian access to civilians in Mariupol. They also discussed the importance of supporting stable energy markets in light of current disruptions due to sanctions.  "

Lets Get Real:

The US has been cautious about the progress of PEACE TALKS between Russia and the Ukraine, the Ukraine side stated that the most important issue was that there had to be security guarantees from the West if Ukraine agreed never to join NATO and was neutral.  That security guarantee would come from the UK and the US, in other words it would be forever 1939 Poland for the US and the UK, as Putin could regroup and build up his forces for another try in a few years.   The Ukraine side also stated that the future of the CRIMEA would be placed in the long grass for the next 15 years.  The question is will Putin take that kind of deal, and what about of the Eastern provinces would he get, there is also the problem that ANY DEAL would go before the voters of the Ukraine, it would be fair to say would they agree to these concessions after the human losses and the destruction of the infrastructure of the Ukraine.   They might support such a move, but they would need for the UK and the US to make sure that should Putin ever have a rethink that they have to come to support the Ukraine, it has to be a legal treaty and set in stone.  Will POTUS get that through the Congress, and will the UK Parliament support such a move.  FOREVER POLAND 1939.

How the KYIV Government sees the Russian Ground operation - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 2.05pm post the following, " Kyiv sees no signs on the ground that Russia has given up a plan to surround the Ukrainian capital, according to Ukrainian defence ministry spokesperson Oleksander Motuzyanyk.  "

Lets Get Real:

What the Russians say and do are two different things, the have LIED, LIED since the start of the CRISIS, why the French President wants to keep talking to Putin is anybody's guess, of course he has an election coming up and wants to be seen as international stateman, nice try but he looks foolish, he is talking to a WAR CRIMINAL, who has lied to his face and make him look foolish when he made him sit at a very long table away from President Putin.   The Russians are past masters at fake news, they want the WEST to think that they are changing their bad strategy, it has been postulated that the RUSSIANS are refreshing their troops for a bigger battle over KYIV and to the WEST, it was suggested yesterday that the Russians are trying to create a West and East Ukraine, as in Korea.  The KYIV Government an Army have to stop that with the support of the West.

The THREAT to CUT OFF Gas from Russia to Europe - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 1.39pm post the following, on the Russian demand that Europe pays for its gas in Roubles, " Germany's energy minister has said meeting the demand would be a "one-sided and clear breach of the existing contracts".....He added that "payment in rouble is not acceptable and we will urge the companies affected not to follow [Russian President Vladimir] Putin's demand"....In retaliation, a Russian politician said the G7's refusal will definitely lead to a halt in supplies, according to Ria news agency.   "

Lets Get Real:

The Russians are bluffing, without the money from the West the Russian State would fall apart and the War in the Ukraine would be OVER FAST,  and the Western economy would be stalled.  Thus the Russians have bluffed using the WRONG weapon, if they threatened a NATO country that would get the attention of the West and the US.  That is also a bad move, NATO has 30 Countries and Russia just has Russia at the end the day, the West would wipe the floor with the Russians, and any major defeat from that would bring down the the Putin Regime, of course that is based on Putin being semi sane, if he has gone off his rocker that is a different game, and the West should be calling for REGIME CHANGE.  The question is, is Putin a great poker player or has he lost the deck and is striking at what he can.   The next few days will be interesting on that count. 

Peace TALKS between Russia and Ukraine - Update - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 12.08pm post the following, " Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov has now said it's unlikely they will begin on Monday, but may start on Tuesday..."Regrettably, we cannot say there have been any significant achievements or breakthroughs so far," he added..  "

Lets Get Real:

The Russians are using talks to get some free good PR, they have no intention of getting a REAL DEAL, the Russians have made it clear that Putin will not meet with the President of the Ukraine at the present, they want to place more pressure on the Ukraine, they want to kill more people and destroy the Ukraine State.   The Russians have been helped by the gaffe by President Biden in Poland, when he stated the following on Putin, "  For God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power.  " the European West has backtracked on that, on that issue they were helped by the Biden White House, who talked backed the comments before the President got to his car.  That was a mistake by the Biden Oval, when a President says whatever one is thinking and is overruled by Foggy Bottom ( the US State Department ) no one can trust what Biden's says, it gives ground to the idea that Biden cannot be trusted out by himself and has gone gaga. The Biden Oval should have owned the comment and make the US State Department and Western Europe support it, what would have they done, said that Putin was ? Hardly.  The comment went down well in the Ukraine, and they are doing the fighting and getting killed by the Russians.  In 1987 when President Reagan was in Berlin he talked to his National Security Advisor, that the US State Department did not want him to say Mr Gorbachev tear down this wall ( Berlin Wall ), the President overruled them and did it his way, in 1989 the Wall came down, but in most footage it is showing going down after the Reagan speech.  It makes you believe that the Gipper could see how that part of the speech would be played in the future.

Russians firing on nuclear research facility in Kharkiv' - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports 8.25pm post the following, " Russian forces 'firing at nuclear research facility in Kharkiv'...."It is currently impossible to estimate the extent of damage due to hostilities that do not stop in the area of the nuclear installation," a tweet from the Ukrainian parliament said.  "

Lets Get Real:

Are the Russians trying to let lose massive radiation on the whole of the Ukraine, they keep shooting at nuclear installations, one of these days they will get unlucky and release mass radiation across Ukraine and the whole of Western Europe, radiation can also reach the Russian Federation, is Putin really in control of his forces or are his forces doing his bidding, with no idea on the damage they can cause to Ukraine and the World, one has to ask are they trying for another Chernobyl ( 1986 ), that helped bring down the USSR.  The Biden Oval has to warn Russia, that when it comes to nuclear issues and breaches of rules that could lead to another meltdown the US will take action, and it does not matter if the Kremlin likes or not.  The Ukraine is under threat from chemical attack and the Russians causing a nuclear breach by their shooting and missile launches, and this is happening in the 21st Century.

"For God's sake, this man cannot remain in power." - Biden on Putin - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 5.48pm post the following, " ( President Biden on Putin of Russia, ) " He closes his speech with a reference to Vladimir Putin - "For God's sake, this man cannot remain in power."  "

Lets Get Real:

POTUS went off the official speech with the above, the White House stated that the President was not calling for regime change in Russia, in other words a Biden gaffe, but it was the RIGHT THING to say in Poland, this will be heard around the WORLD even in RUSSIA.  One hopes that the people of Russia get out on the streets to demonstrate against the WAR CRIMINAL President.  The President stated that the Ukraine War will be long term, the West might have to carry the Ukraine for months when it comes to supplies of weapons and other military kit.  Also the West will have to help with the food supply, the Ukraine economy has stopped, the only other worse economy is Russia.   The West should use the Russian reserves held in the West to support the UKRAINE at this time and also fund its refugee crisis, Western Europe, in this case Poland has taken in million of refugees, they will need support and also more military protection should the Russian gaze go to Poland.  The above call was a good call by POTUS, the White House should not have attempted to clear it up.  It makes it look like Biden cannot be trusted with a speech.
