Summary

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned that Ukraine would lose the war if the U.S., its primary military supporter, cuts funding.

Speaking to Fox News, he stressed the importance of unity between the U.S. and Ukraine as Russia accelerates its territorial gains.

Zelensky acknowledged Ukraine’s challenges on the battlefield, despite new U.S. weapon supplies, including long-range missiles and anti-personnel land mines.

He criticized German Chancellor Olaf Scholz for engaging with Putin, calling it a risky move.

Trump has pledged to end the war quickly but offered no specifics.

I had an argument on here with a supposed green party voter who "hated trump", but admired him for his sincere efforts to end wars.....

I reminded them about ending the nuclear deal with Iran and then assassinating their most idolized military commander. He just went on to admit he didn't care about a war with Iran.

There are so many "green voters" who are just trump supporters turfing as leftist on this site.

Love the Pax MAGA:

  1. Russia moves west until Putin doesn't need to drum up nationalist fervor back home;

  2. Israel gets all the weapons it needs to control every inch of the Mediterranean coast from the Suez to Turkey;

  3. All US troops out of South Korea and IDK probably an arms sale to the DPRK;

  4. The Seventh Fleet gets permanently reassigned to patrol the California coast as some immigration stunt and to make Pooh happy;

  5. Probably a tactical nuke dropped on Tehran.

Seems awesome, right?

Can you link to it? Because i havent come across this at all. On the contrary third party voters and advocates are usually doing so because of the fucked up US Middle East meddling, war mongering and genociding. The JCPOA was about the only positive coming out of the US for the region in the past decades, probably the last half of a century.

Yeah, was not what he was about.

When he praised trump from pulling out of Afghanistan and Syria, I asked how the people in those countries are doing now, and his reply was he didn't care, he just cares for the people in this country.
