Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has said his country won’t accept peacekeeping forces from Nato countries in Ukraine under any peace deal, following high-level talks with the US in Saudi Arabia.
“Any appearance by armed forces under some other flag does not change anything. It is of course completely unacceptable,” he said. Russia and the US said they had agreed to appoint teams to start negotiating the end of the war.
“Today is the first step of a long and difficult journey, but an important one”, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said following the meeting.
What… Uhhh… What are they going to do about it? Bomb London and eat nukes?
I know it’s escalatory but sometimes you have to accept a little escalation to show you’re willing. Just like a certain “Axis” in history they’re pushing because they think everyone is too afraid of an actual war. And appeasement directly led to their war because the other powers waited until it was so far gone it could only be war.
But escalating a little to egg their face now, (not bloody it), it punctures that belief.
They gonna order his bitch Trump, the wannabe emperor of the US, to pressure NATO. And the bitch will oblige.
I don’t think Europe cares.
US is still unbelievably rich and has an enormous army that they love to use. Europe will not bend the knee, but the shit will be very unpleasant after that.
Oh there’s no danger of the US trying to fight Europe militarily. Just the US going isolationist again.
I don’t know anymore. Maybe not outright fight with the EU at first, but I completely envision US army invading something on the European continent to help their best friend Putin. With Musk in charge and Trump also running around like a headless chichen, I don’t think I can be sure about anything anymore.
I’m pretty sure the American people would shut down D.C. To be honest any military adventurism is going to be hard for them to pull off after 20 years of fighting. But especially against our oldest allies.
Delusional russ don’t “accept” reality… So what ?
It’s sad how these mental infants think they can negotiate anything about Ukraine, when there is nobody present with a mandate to do so.
Lavrov is as bad as they come, and he can go fuck himself. Nothing he says has any value.
It’s not even interesting what they agree on, because it’s completely irrelevant. The only thing interesting is how Trump reacts when he realizes the free world combined will absolutely distance themselves from it.
Russia is of course playing along, because they can create discord that way. USA has a fascist leader, that prefer to talk to other fascist leaders, and not the traditional democratic allies of USA.Trump is crashing USA as world leader for the 2nd time. But this time is worse, and he has done it right from the start of his presidency. Paving the way for a much quicker new world order where China dominates.
Without the support of all the allies, USA is not nearly as powerful as Trump may think they are.
Its not funny and theyre not mental infants, its calculated, sociopathic geopolitical maneuvering by very capable, ruthless people
Why do you think it would be funny?
russia can accept deez nuts
🎵How 'bout we do anyway? 🎶
First 24 hours still not over?
Nato should just tell Russia and Trumpland to fuck thenselves and make Ukraine a member.
All the power russia has is the one given to it.
And their atom bombs, don’t forget those.
if they were to use those for any reason, it would be horrible suicide for them. They could destroy the society as we know it with them but they couldnt stop the retaliation which would be so vengeance fueled I dont want to even think about it.
Because they don’t want fucking peace you bunch of imbeciles
So?
This is like sovereign citizens saying they don’t consent to being arrested. Did anybody hear us asking for permission?
Warmongers refuse to be watched commiting atrocities.
Whatever.
If Ukraine asks for them then send them.
Ukraine isn’t their fucking country so go get fucked, if they wanna have friends over to help scare the goons away of course they can it’s their fucking country.
The geopolitical puppet show rolls on, with Lavrov’s performative indignation about NATO troops while cutting deals over caviar in Riyadh. Zelensky’s exhausted face says it all—another chapter in the grand tradition of “deciding your fate without you.” Democracy’s broken? More like a rerun of 19th-century backroom bargains, just with better catering.
Europe’s “emergency summit” reeked of desperation, a bureaucratic seance to summon relevance. Starmer’s troop deployment musings? Empty posturing. Scholz’s hesitation? The scent of gas deals lingering. They’re all just extras in someone else’s blockbuster.
Meanwhile, the digital colosseum erupts with hot takes and flag emojis. Social media’s perpetual outrage machine grinds on, mistaking hashtags for strategy. The real war’s fought in server farms and oil pipelines now—boots on the ground are so 20th century.
I have trouble making sense of your proposed world view. Your (well) organized comment gestures wildly at a bigger picture, implying there is something that one cannot observe by merely reading news. On its own that would be a straightforward idea, but you continue and claim that there is/are something/s governing the governments?
I request, please, more information.Their comments are not well organized. Look at their comment history; they write like a bot trained to generate pseudo-profound bullshit.
What a shit take.
I’m sure all the families of the people in Ukraine who have died will be relieved to know that at least they didn’t die in the real war.
Why are all of your comments from a bad LLM? Like, nearly all of them.
Why are all of your replies indistinguishable from a bored algorithm trying to pass the Turing test? If you’re fishing for originality, maybe try harder than regurgitating the same tired insult.
Engage with the substance or don’t bother. Otherwise, you’re just proving my point about the digital colosseum—hot takes, zero depth
Flashy words to hide the complete lack of substance.
Ah, the irony of accusing others of lacking substance while offering a response that could be mistaken for a placeholder text generator. If you’re going to critique, at least muster the effort to rise above the intellectual equivalent of a shrug.
Substance isn’t flashy words; it’s depth of thought, something your reply seems allergic to. Engage or don’t, but spare us the performative dismissal—it’s tedious.
Substance isn’t flashy words; it’s depth of thought,
I’m seeing neither.
Flashy words to hide the complete lack of substance, again.
“engage with substance as I post LLM slop with no substance at all”
Why are all of your replies indistinguishable from a bored algorithm
Why do you keep projecting onto others the thing that people keep saying about you: that you write like a bot?
Jesus, I love the block function on Lemmy. Another one goes on the list.
Too bad dickhead, Ukraine doesn’t accept Russian troops in Ukraine but here we are.
