I hope Europe sticks to offering this temp ceasefire - its the only way to expose who the aggressor is. The Russians have been asked for no concessions yet, at least publicly - something that really throws light on whose side Trump is actually on. Make them keep saying no to a ceasefire at least. |  |

Maybe Trump trying to humiliate the Ukrainian president last week was on the behest of Putin who wants a way out of that war - but without losing face and looking weak? |  | | |

Thats a generous reading, but who knows - you might be right. | |

In a very different way that only I know (apart from everybody else), Trump is a c***. |  |

Is Trump starting to feel the heat?
From the BBC:
Donald Trump says he's considering new sanctions and tariffs on Russia, following a wave of overnight strikes on Ukraine.
He writes: "Based on the fact that Russia is absolutely 'pounding' Ukraine on the battlefield right now, I am strongly considering large scale Banking Sanctions, Sanctions, and Tariffs on Russia until a Cease Fire and FINAL SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT ON PEACE IS REACHED.
"To Russia and Ukraine, get to the table right now, before it is too late. Thank you!!!" |  |

The US is broke...Trump is doing a Truss and tanking their economy with his flip-flopping Canada / Mexico sanctions; mass public sector firings and more to come, cuts in social security and healthcare to follow. Whatever change they find down the back of the sofa will be dished out in tax breaks to his billionaire buddies.

Can't get his hands on freebie minerals from Ukraine, so helping himself to some Russian cash instead. He's not pushing for peace, he's looking to make a few quid (just as he hopes to with the Gaza Riviera)
Sorry...probably wondering why I replied to your post in particular; just wanted to back up your statement! |  |

A military expert on the World Service today thought that Russia held all the cards.
He said they have overwhelmingly military superiority compared to Ukraine, so have the option of just continuing the war. He also said they had made it clear they won't accept a European presence.
Somewhere in the same bulletin, it was said that Trump had said he knows something about the Russian position that no one else knows. But he's hardly a reliable witness. |  | | |

There’s also a lot of talk that they are trying to work together to oust Zelensky. Trump aiding Putin in getting someone more agreeable in Kyiv doesn’t seem like a YouTube rabbit hole |  |

That strikes me as being a fool's errand not least because the main opposition leader has said that he does not think there should be an election. | | | |

My only reading of it is that neither Putin or Trump care what the Ukrainians want as much as what they want. A “client king” as it were is the kind of situation as old as time for the tyrannical types that they are I guess.
I think they have sorely misjudged this one. Both in terms of russias place and power and where Europe is at right now. | |

Trump’s certainly not helping, but the only one with blood on their hands is the aggressor who started this. Putin. |  | | |

No. Trump as well. He stopped intelligence which would have given better warning about last night's bombardment. And he did it either out of spite, or out of some twisted desire to force a deal in minerals. Or both. [Post edited 7 Mar 22:37]

That was how it was. It isn’t now. Emboldened by America’s 100% support and betrayal of Ukraine, Russia has intensified its attacks and is on the march. Trump has directly allowed this by blinding Ukraine and that will intensify until Ukraine’s complete subjugation.
Nobody seriously believes Trump cares about peace, justice or what’s right. Everything is about him getting his grasping, betraying hands on the loot. America is Russia’s cheerleader.
He reiterated tonight that he trusts Putin and is finding the Russians easier to deal with than Ukraine. That is because the majority of America (sorry, there maybe a few who oppose him, but their objections are muted) are on Russia’s side. They see the excitement of conquest for the first time in their history. From the Arctic to the Antarctic Pax Americana. An Empire!! America first! |  | | |

Amazing how its easier to deal with a party who is being offered everything they want, than with a party from whom you are intending to take everything. | | | |

Whether Putin wants peace or not is open for debate, but this is a classic move by Russia to attack when their opponent is feeling weak.
If I was Russia now is exactly the right time to apply pressure on Ukraine. |  |

“the majority of America (sorry, there maybe a few who oppose him, but their objections are muted)”.
That’s not true though, there’ve been several polls conducted over the past few days showing that Americans are fairly evenly split on this, with a slim majority still supporting Ukraine, eg
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/03/ukraine-russia-support-poll
There have also been large demonstrations in the USA protesting against T.rump’s stance on the issue; similar on my X feed. |  |

Evenly split is pretty appalling in any event. The disinformation bubble and Trump cult has taken half the population of the world's wealthiest country with it to a view that is demosntrably wrong morally and factually. | | | |

… or because he’s too stupid/impetuous to form an overview of the situation, work out a strategy, and stick to it. Or is actually insane.
