On Monday, Donald Trump announced a pause on all aid to Ukraine, including weapons in transit or in Poland, until he determines the Ukrainians show a commitment to good faith peace negotiations.
After the disastrous Oval Office visit on Friday, it was clear that no one was going to make a deal with the arrogant, ungrateful, and argumentative Mr. Zelensky.
I would like to reiterate Ukraine’s commitment to peace.
None of us wants an endless war. Ukraine is ready to come to the negotiating table as soon as possible to bring lasting peace closer. Nobody wants peace more than Ukrainians. My team and I stand ready to work under President Trump’s strong leadership to get a peace that lasts.
We are ready to work fast to end the war, and the first stages could be the release of prisoners and truce in the sky — ban on missiles, long-ranged drones, bombs on energy and other civilian infrastructure — and truce in the sea immediately, if Russia will do the same. Then we want to move very fast through all next stages and to work with the US to agree a strong final deal.
We do really value how much America has done to help Ukraine maintain its sovereignty and independence. And we remember the moment when things changed when President Trump provided Ukraine with Javelins. We are grateful for this.
Our meeting in Washington, at the White House on Friday, did not go the way it was supposed to be. It is regrettable that it happened this way. It is time to make things right. We would like future cooperation and communication to be constructive.
Regarding the agreement on minerals and security, Ukraine is ready to sign it in any time and in any convenient format. We see this agreement as a step toward greater security and solid security guarantees, and I truly hope it will work effectively.
I would like to reiterate Ukraine’s commitment to peace.

However, Peter Doocy spoke to a senior official who said that the White House is demanding a public apology.
“Nothing is gonna happen with this minerals deal until Zelensky goes in front of cameras and makes an explicit public apology for the way he behaved in the Oval Office with that meeting,” Doocy said in a live broadcast from the White House lawn. President Zelensky on Tuesday is reiterating he’s “ready” to sign the minerals deal with the US.

Trump better cool his Ego or He could get WW-3.
You sound like a USAID recipient.
You sound like you wantWW-3?
Is your god Trump Worth it?
You do not humiliate a foreign dignitary ( yet alone another nations KING) under any circumstances. Little Guys have Napoleon Complexes. You better PRAY zelinski does not pull a Crazy Ivan and get all of your Cowardly Backsides Dragged into this War. He can do it.
Trump’s plan is the only plan includes pending peace. You’re kind are the vermin. It’s all over except the whining and temper tantrums. To be expected, look who were dealing with. Wait for it.
Were you born yesterday? Nothing is Over. Zelinsky can Dig in and Go Defensive/ Unconventional and Eat Russias Treasury. Afghanistan beat both the “US and Russia” with this kind of Warfare. Zelinski is far better equipped and EU can keep him in Business.
Russia’s external revenues have been rising over the past few years. Which agency or NGO funds you?
I wish.
Oh ye, who only knows the mind of God, you are Wrong Again. Did the spirit guide you again. Zelensky has already capitulated and sent a conciliatory message to Trump and is willing to sign the “deal”. Reportedly Trump is to include it in his message tonight.
None of you attempt to know God. You cut God off by thinking you
re not good enough. He Created You Greg! You do not seek God So You do not get Answers. Tragic.. What do you Expect?Zelinsky has options.
Perhaps, youre right and he
s had enough?Now, being that he was installed, by the US government/CIA, it is possible that He is an Employee of the US government. He Sure was treated like one! Trump even got all Gorilla on Him!
So ... I bet he gets a Good Bonus?
Z might just want that Mineral Deal; because you better believe hes getting a Cut. I
d drop the whole thing for a chunk of that Mineral Deal too! Beats War.Nevertheless, Z could defeat Russia with Defensive Unconventional Warfare. Taking on Russia was Stupid, Conventionally. Why Waste Tanks ( HE HAD NONE) when a $500.00 RPG will take a Tank out? Simple Math. $500.00 ATGM system vs Multi-Million -dollar Tank. Ukraine had no Ability to Fight Conventional and Win. NO Airforce, NO Air defense ... Nothing!
Putin was a Fool for not taking "all of Ukraine" in the Very Beginning. Putin cost lots of lives on his Side.
So ... IS Putin on the Take?
Perhaps, this whole thing was done to make a bunch of money for a bunch of Satanists in the US MIC/CIA? Perhaps , theyre all being paid? Sure Seems like it.
Basically you just spout off without any reasoning capability, making statements without any backing.
Make up things as you go. Those RPG’s / Javelins were Not taking out tanks. Videos shows tanks getting two and three times and still kept rolling.
Oh, no, Greg, those Javilins Turn tanks into Dust. Go Watch a You Tube.
Russian Tanks have ERA armor and shorta-arena close in defense systems. They can take several hits. However, Ambush Tactics in Unconventional War would Ruin Russia.
Drones have made it even Easier to take them out.
Oh, and at “close range” those defense systems do not work. Russian Tanks GO BOOM!
You remind me of someone else I know who constantly just makes stuff up. You’re a real Idiot.
Insults are all you have Greg; So, that makes you the Idiot.
Only a complete idiot would seriously propose that Zelensky can overtake Russia. If it were the case it would have already been done. He thought, mistakenly, that an incursion in the Kursk region would be a game changer. Well, he found reality the hard way.
He’s so inept that he forced thousands of soldiers to remain in a cauldron and allowed them to be wiped out. It’s why there are so many videos of Ukrainian soldiers taking him to task.
Are you aware there have been war crimes investigations into him and his military.
Not overtake; but stalemate a Win.
Did the Taliban not Kick the US out of Afghanistan? How did Afghanistan Beat the Russians Too? They had far fewer resources and far less powerful weapons. Time and Money Favors the Defender..
Z fought stupidly in conventional thinking when he had no conventional army. Very Stupid People, Indeed. However, they wasted TONS of MONEY; So, I have to give way to the fact that it was all done for MONEY! They could care less about the Civilian Dead or Russia for that matter.
There’s no comparison between Afghanistan and Ukraine / Russia. It takes one hell of an idiot to make that comparison.
He had no conventional army? What! Are you on drugs. You get dumber with each post.
It shows how leftist ideology pollutes the mind
Wrong. You are the idiot that does not understand the strength of unconvenational wars and why countries like the United States lost to Afghanistan. You`ll never learn. Trilions Wasted, Nothing Learned!
Ukraine had no Airforce to challenge Russia or Proper Air Defense. Therefore, Z had No Army to Challenge Russia, Conventionally, Pinhead.
You idiot, they DID have an air force and air defense, and were NATO trained for years and years. Russia did like Israel had done, and wiped the air force at the very start.
You don’t fight an unconventional war in vast open fields.
BIRDBRAIN … Russia took their Nukes, MIGS, and all other Valuable Weapons Systems out of Ukraine leaving it Naked. They never replaced it to make it a match for Russia. Russia had an Easy Time of Wiping them out and Should have taken the Whole Country. So … Why did Vlad Cause Catastrophe on His own people by allowing US supply into UKRAINE?
You do not fight in the fields. You lure them into the cities and bury them among the rubble. “HUG the ENEMY.” -Chuikov. This is how Russia defeated Nazi Gernmany, by luring them into Stalingrad, then closing range and fighting them where their weapons could penetrate German armor.
It wasn’t their nukes, you idiot. They were part of the USSR and when Ukraine separated they had to return what belonged to them. It would be the same as if Alaska had nukes and we let Russia have it back, the US wouldn’t give those assets to Russia.
They did have MIGS, you idiot. You ever hear of the “Ghost of Kiev”. They also had F16’s.
You ever hear about Mariupol. There’s vast open fields past the cities and villages. You’re not an idiot, you’re a moron.
Yes, and RUSSIA took “everything that belonged to them” leaving Ukraine with nothing to defend itself, yet alone fight Russia. Russians were not Stupid.
Donated Migs and F-16 cannot win a War. They Just become Fireworks that Light up the Sky! Plenty of Examples. And, all of those Abramas Tanks were shot into JUNK ; because Ukraine had no Proper Air-force or Air Defense to Protect them! Brilliant , America, HOW MUCH MORE GD MONEY CAN YOU WASTE?
Go Away GREG, You`re Boring! I prefer the ECHO!!!
Oh, no Wait … This is too Funny!
The Ukrainian “Welfare Army” that was Supposed to Defeat “RUSSIA,” in conventional warfare, something all of NATO/US was uncertain if they could do for Decades! Ukraine was a JOKE conventionally! Russia was stupid for not taking the whole country in the very beginning!
Oh … Dear GOD, You
ve all lost your Minds! The End is Near.Now, turn the tables, and go unconventional, then Ukraine would have had a chance of Winning their Contested ( Don Area) Lands by Attrition.
I have been consistant from Afghanistan to Iraq to this Modern Day Fiasco! I am even Right about HAMAS .. Youll See. I was against the US Iraq/Afghanistan War; because it was obvious to me that they could not win: A Modern Conventional Army is no Match for Guerrillas in well prepared and well fortified positions. The Cost is Too Great. The Modern “Expensive” Army gets bankrupted; while the Guerrillas can fight for 1,000. Years! Russia and the US have failed, Continually, in this type of Warfare. However, everyone calls me names. That is a Badge of Honor.
Stupidity is incapable of recognizing Stupid.
You
re the Ant Trying to insult an Elephant.Why dont you challenge Content?
If I am so wrong, and you are so right, then prove it? Thus Far, you show me you do not comprehend unconventional warfare and how it gives the edge to the underdog. The little man can win, if He uses, Great Wisdom.
“People die for Lack of Knowledge,” Greg. You should learn from my wisdom not call me names because of it, really. All Wisdom and Knowledge comes from GOD, it depends on how we use it, as to its outcome: Good or Evil. It`s all a Test , Greg.
Stupidity is incapable of recognizing Stupid.
Look folks, the leftist inverted thinker tries to say that compromising with Russia in negotiations will cause WW3. That is just typical inverted deep state talk.
No. I am saying: YOU COWARDS put Ukraine up to this and Set them Against Russia; because you
re too cowardly to fight Russia yourselves.Now, you want to "kiss putins backside" and make peace; because YOU FEAR DANGER TO YOURSELVES! "Youll all Talk Peace and Security,” then Sudden Destruction shall Come.” -1 Thessalonians 5:3. Escape is not Possible.
Stupidity is incapable of recognizing Stupid.
You sound like one of those delusional warmongering Democrats.
I hate both Democrat and Republican Parties. Nice Try.
You hate most anything except your crackpot ideas.
True. In a world of liars and charlatins I can only Trust, GOD, and Myself. You do know how it all ends and what is written, I hope, Right , Christian?
Stupidity is incapable of recognizing Stupid.
Leftist nonsense emitter, it was your heroes, the leftists, which staged the coup in 2014, violated multiple neutrality agreements, and refused to negotiate.You just scored a ZERO.
I do not favor any party. I hate all of them. I am not fooled, unlike the rest of you. You are Less than Zero.
And, your government represents, YOU, whether you voted or not and that is legally BINDING!
Stupidity is incapable of recognizing Stupid.
It always comes back to the same demand, “strong security guarantees”. In the past, according to him, means hundreds of thousands of foreign troops, primarily US, to be stationed there.
Just as he keeps saying we cannot trust Putin, The Donbass cannot trust Ukraine and Zelensky on keeping their word. Therefore, any peace necessarily means that Ukraine gives up those territories, and damn sure includes Crimea.
