I like the use of frozen Russian cash used to rebuild the Ukraine. The security “guarantee” is lacking as no peace keeping troops will be allowed in the Ukraine. After reading the plan, the parts of Donbas that are still under Ukrainian control will be used as a “buffer zone. Not sure if Zelensky and NATO will get behind that. I don’t mind the reduction of the Ukrainian military. I wouldn’t want to face ‘em again, either if I was a Russian savage.
I don’t like Russia benefiting from this savagery, but it seems both sides are going to have to cave to a certain extreme. We shall see if this deal is accepted.
Ukraine demonstrated great courage and tenacity. But, they desperately needed help to sustain a meaningful defense of their sovereign over the long grind of war.

and POTUS just translated it into English and said this was a peace deal, MR. chickenhawk.
This deal gives Russia the Eastern Ukraine and disarms the Ukrainians and leaves open the opportunity for Putin
to take the rest of Ukraine when desired exposing Eastern Europe to Russian advancements.
How fair and free would the “elections” be? Putin is a master manipulator…what would keep him from inserting a Russian puppet?
that noose.
