Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

If he was fully on the leash then I would have expected surrender of the whole Donbas under threat of pulling aid
Give it a few months.
For Ukraine, only NATO membership makes sense to end the war.
There is literally nothing else that can prevent Russia from invading. They broke their word in 2014, then again in 2022, without NATO membership, Ukraine will just get invaded again and again by Russia until it’s a satellite state or fully annexed.
Yeah at this point i think NATO doesn't give a fuck about the US of A anymore. Maybe when somebody that is normal becomes president again. Really fuck Trump, little bootlicking orange.
If he's claiming he'll drop the US out of NATO, why does he think his (concept of a) plan, for the alliance that he hates, has any weight at all? Fucking dipshit.
So essentially his plan to "end the war" is to force Ukraine into submitting to all of Russia's demands?
He couldn't be much more overtly in bed with Russia if he tried... Might as well just wait for the photos to leak of him in a rather grotesque threesome with Elon and Putin at this point.
President Zelenskyy could have ended the war many months ago if he’d just agreed to all of Putin’s demands. Who knew?
But then Russia would just be forced to invade some more later because they simply can't help themselves. So Zelensky should do the right thing and hand over all of Ukraine so that Russia doesn't have to go through so much trouble again. All the Baltics and EU should do the same so poor old Putin can finally take a nice vacation.
Wow, what a fucking horrible idea. Not only will this fail to end the conflict quickly but it all but guarantees another one. Let's hope Ukraine's other allies are up to the task if Trump actually tries to follow through with this dogshit plan.
Who cares what the orange felon wants? Not his country to make decisions on.
You say that, but without the US military support it will be rough for Ukraine. The EU has spent a bunch of money to get all other kinds of aid to Ukraine, much more than the US. But the US has supplied more military support, more than the EU. If the US stops helping out, the EU will probably not be able to fill the gap. And Trump can put pressure on the EU by threatening to pull out of Nato again. If Russia decides to invade more countries and the US leaves Nato hanging, the EU is in trouble. Now these are a lot of ifs and since Trump has been elected the EU has been preparing. Plus laws have been passed in the US to prevent Trump from pulling out of Nato, but you know how much Trump cares about laws. Once the EU feels like they don't need the support from the US any more, Trump has nothing to say anymore, but we ain't there yet.
But the US has supplied more military support, more than the EU.
The US has supplied a lot of aid, and aid that cannot be obtained from elsewhere, but in terms of volume, the EU has gradually passed it by.
Sadly, it seems unlikely that the EU can ramp up weapons industries much faster. Ukrainians themselves have stated that without US assistance, they would run a serious risk of losing the war.
Translation: Trump handing over territory to his butt-buddy separated at birth Putin.
Fuck Trump
Trump: if Ukraine refuses my plan, I turn off the tap of $/weapons to you! if Russia refuses my plan I send tons of shitload of weapons to Ukraine!
EDIT: it is written in the article
halting military aid to Kyiv unless it agrees to talk but boosting assistance if Russian President Vladimir Putin refuses.
I don't get why you are being downvoted. That is exactly what his position is, which would be clear to anyone who actually read the article.
I don't know too, it is the exact plan of Trump, either stop delivering weapons to Ukraine, or increase delivery
