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.

Trump Defends US Envoy Steve Witkoff - Trump47

BBC News: Reports President Trump defends US Envoy Steve Witkoff on board AF1.

Lets Get Real:

The President was not his usual combative self, more down, Health rumours could be true, the OVAL is more suited to a younger man, Trump is no Reagan! NONE of the modern Presidents are close to the Gipper.  Trump should have distanced himself fro his Envoy! One that has just landed him in a mess.   At least the Thursday deadline for the Ukraine is off the table at this moment, you can never tell with Trump.

Witkoff Adviced Moscow how to deal with Trump over Ukraine - Trump47

Sky News: Reports in its post of last night at 10.22pm that US Envoy Steve Witkoff adviced the Russians how to deal with POTUS when it came to Ukraine.

Lets Get Real:

This shows that Witkoff is biased in favour of Russia, another Russian pawn in the Trump Court, they do not need Witkoff as Trump is the lap dog to Putin.  Witkoff has never been to Ukraine, but has been to Moscow numerous times.   Question, where is the US Secretary of State, with the exception of Geneva is has not been seen, is thinking about 2028 and does not want the contamination of being seen as an appeaser.  Politics change and America First might be out of favour with the good people of Iowa and New Hampshire in 2028.

Ukraine agrees to US Peace Plan - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 12.53pm post that the Ukraine has agreed to the Trump Peace Plan, just a few minor details to work out.

Lets Get Real:

The question that has to be asked, what plan is the talking about, the Russian pro plan or the European plan that is pro Ukraine, and makes sure that the Russians pay some price for their invasion of the Ukraine in 2022.   This could be the Trump Oval trying to create pressure on President of the Ukraine before his visit this week to the Oval Office.   One hopes that the Ukraine and Europe and the US are on the same page, and not the Russia page, their demands was full of a Russian wish list that would please Moscow, and would have negative consequences for the Ukraine and Western Europe and the Baltic States.
