Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is once again rejecting any consideration for President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss terms for a ceasefire without his involvement. [Snip] Zelenskyy reacted, carrying the message from the global intelligence community who support the ongoing conflict,... Zelenskyy has banned opposition parties in Ukraine, taken control of media, targeted religious groups who he claims are subversive to his interests and cancelled elections in order to remain in power. Now Zelenskyy hides behind the claim of a constitution his regime modified in order to ensure he alone controls the pathways to peace.

Apparently there is no Ukrainian word for "swapping", the possibility that President Trump suggested might be the answer. Z is in the weak position, trying to call the shots.

If z and P want to play immovable object versus unstoppable force, let them. Not our circus, not our clowns. Let them voth rot out.
Trump carries negotiating tools, and I hope he can begin to create a road to peace on both sides.

This criminal little punk needs to know that the gravy train has pulled into the station and is shutting down. Don’t give him another dime, or another round of ammunition,

IMO there has to be some representation from some authority in Ukraine before any peace can be assured.
My question is : is Zelensky, the little two-bit self-made dictator the proper authority to negotiate that settlement.
We do not know what the Ukrainian people want since he has virtually and actually taken complete charge of their Government. No elections and arrests of anyone that speaks out.

It's time this greedy little wanna be dictator gets thrown out of the country. He has enough boats, villas, etc. he can live off. He has no consideration for the people of the Ukraine. Get this pajama dirt bag out of anything. At this point I prefer anyone but the Zelinsky trash.

Where are the Ukrainian people? Isn't it past time that they took control of their ccxountry? Have they really chosen to suffer in silence?

I wonder what hold Putin has over Sundance, and why he hates Ukraine so much?
I used to follow everything that he said, since the Zimmerman affair, but on this topic he is irrational.

Long past time that the Ukrainian people give this guy the 'Ceausescu Treatment' and then beg for peace.

Re #12, shooting the messenger day after day acheives nothing. SD has no history of supporting Putin. Meanwhile you give the appearance of supporting
Zelenskyy. Inasmuch as you seem to have a vested interest in the outcome, what would you suggest as your plan to end this war?

Upon rereading the article and finding no evidence pf bias, and once again reading thatZelenskyy has no interest i any plan developed by President Trump and Putin at this meeting, it is my belief that President Trump should give up his role as peacemaker and leave this up to P and Z.

I think Putin and Trump will propose a permanent cease fire and political division exactly where the front lines are today and then tell Z and Ukraine to take the deal or leave it. But if they reject it we will not give them additional support in any fighting. If they accept we will give them - UK - very favorable terms for trade and reconstruction and support in other arenas.
There are no rules. And there is no winning for everyone on every single issue.

Bottomline, this guy needs to be removed from power. The people of Ukraine is getting sick of him and his power of keeping this war alive. I do not trust Putin and the same goes for Zelenskyy. They both are manics and evil people.

It is past time to get rid of this little POS. If we stop the support maybe then the Ukrainians will do something about him.

Ok. Then you risk losing everything. And I mean Everything - half your country, you position as "president", your gift train and perhaps your life. Better have a good escape plan with access to a country that will accept you that also allows you access to your bank account funded courtesy of the US taxpayer.

Z is not a good leader.
That being said, I can understand his reluctance to give Putin part of Ukraine. Talk about being rewarded for bad behavior. Unfortunately, since no other country is willing to give Ukraine troops to fight this battle, he has no leverage over this situation. Either give up land and have a US enforced peace, or tell Putin to go to hell and lose the bigger battle.

I'm getting real tired of the Z man and his demands...not that I think Putin is guiltles...President Trump can meet with anyone he wants to....and European pancies can demand anything they want...BUT... President Trump can do as he sees fit for world peace....what is this obsession with war for the europe trash...they must be heavily intrenched with the military complex....two-fold for them...war is good for their business...and Russia is closer to europe than America....

Zelenskyy apparently puts more value on dirt and his big ego than he does the lives of thousands of Ukrainian people. Both the UN and NATO have some blame in this conflict and have shown us what worthless organizations that they are. Maybe Zelenskyy realizes that his life is not worth two rubles once the war is over. He is just as likely to be taken out by one of his own as by the Russians.

Mr. Pipsqueak is squealing again. Z reminds us of our little female poodle. When she is either excited or wants something NOW, she starts squealing. What a noise she makes!!!

Zelenskyy is the best beggar in the world. 350 billion from here, 100 billion from there, all pensions and healthcare paid by US, and 10% for the little guy. WE cannot afford him, you hear Lindsey?

#6 - Don't forget that the League of Nations went a long way to insure that there actually was a WW2. When they turned their backs on Haile Selassie and refused to stop the Italian army invasion of Ethiopia they emboldened another dictator to launch a war of world conquest. Do you think there is a comparison of
Italy/Ethiopia and Ukraine/China and UN/League of Nations ? It turned out Selassie was not a very good guy either, but sometimes you just have to do the right thing.
