Moscow Offers Ukraine Terms of Surrender Hours After the Attack Began

NBC’s Richard Engel reports that Russia has offered terms of surrender to Ukraine in return for Russia ceasing its military operations. According to Engel, Russia will end hostilities if Ukraine agrees to become a neutral state and will agree to forbid deployment of foreign weapons inside Ukraine.

The terms don’t sound too bad, although not receiving weapons from NATO leaves them vulnerable. Independence from NATO and the US isn’t a bad thing for them.

It’s hard to say why Russia is doing this. It could just be another dishonest tactic. Then again, what they wanted was to rid themselves of the threat of NATO and to secure a new land mass in the East. This could do it, if they can be trusted.

Perhaps the intense pressure from world leaders and threats of sanctions as well as protests in their own country forced them to rethink what they’ve done. The Oligarchs can’t be happy.

They also might not be able to sustain this type of attack.

There is also the fact that the Russian stock market plunged today and the interest rates skyrocketed to 15%. Forbes reported that Russia’s stock market lost a third of its value — $200 billion in stock-market value and roughly a third of the sovereign debt’s value today. The ruble hits a new low against the US dollar.

What do you think about this? It’s fairly shocking. What is Putin up to?

Hundreds of protesters were arrested in St. Petersburg.

This conflict could have been avoided by Ukraine simply declaring its neutrality and refusing to import weapons into their territory aimed at Russia.

If it is true that Biden has put several US bio-weapon labs in Ukraine, that might be part of Putin’s angst.

It was 20 years ago at the end of ” The Cold War” agreement between The Then Soviet Union and Nato and The Globalist controlled West , when the USA promised not to extend NATO any further East into Former Soviet vassal states , but of course , as usual The USA and Nato , Globalist controlled War Mongers lied and offered membership .. The USA is Satan , just like The Iranians stated so long ago , and i am an American , just know the real History , and who really controls most Western . ‘so called’ Democracies .

Maybe they should have done more to end the civil war in that country.

Unlike America, it looks like Putin had both a goal and an exit strategy. Stock Markets are paper loses. With Oil at all time highs, Putin is clearly coming out ahead. The big winners were the buyers on the Markets today.
