Dump making false claims is not news.

There was no agreement! That's very obvious by the fact that they disagreed.
Why did Zelensky go there, what was he supposed to sign, was it trump that said Zelensky has agreed to sign?

If Zelensky was not coming to sign a deal then why was he at the white house?

Bemeruca..Those western militaries are deadly. They have mastered the art of warfare. Russia has been struggling for months to take a few villages and outposts. Mainly because they don't control the airspace, they can't use close support helicopters or gunships instead relying on artillery .
America is far advanced in terms of everything including intelligence.
Western militaries are hamstrung by lawyers and armchair generals away from battle fighting humane wars.
If there was no nuclear weapons threat they can wipe the floor with Russia .
Chinese , noone knows about them. They wars they fought relied on numbers and zealots throwing themselves like ants into a battle.
These western armies are dysinfunctional because they want to follow rules of engagement. Take that out ,their weaponry and tactics are immense. Europeans also know they have NATO backed by America.
Russia does not need airspace to flatten Ukraine. The country has issues, but they have weapons that can devastate Europe, and they are not using them in Ukraine. We saw a glimpse of one of those weapons.

Ukraine is clever in how it messed up Russia's assets, and these are not done conventionally. even the Americans and the whole world learned a lot from Ukraine. We can see the same tactics being used in Syria too.

Trump has halted all weapon supply to Ukraine.

The EU should take the initiative, it is at their backyard, just as Ibime will say, Ukraine should enjoy all the goodies of the EU even if many EU countries are struggling

This lie amuses me.

There was no agreement on paper, obviously, since he, Zelensky, didn't agree to what dump wrote on paper.

What was on paper was what dump wanted, and which Zelensky could not agree to, and therefore came to negotiate, but dump wasn't in negotiation mood and just wanted Zelensky to agree and sign.

Zelensky could not sign what dump wanted, and rightly shouldn't. He has no mandate to, and would have been slaughtered by Ukraine legislators if he had signed it.

But I guess the art of the deal is to pressure those you should negotiate with to sign a deal that's unfavorable to them and then renege on the deal when it suits you like dump always does.

Only those who oppose Ukraine would call it an agreement. It was extortion.
Liar, Zelensky has refused to sign a deal 3 times in the last two weeks.
The last deal yesterday was about $90 billion to repay America, which means there had been negotiations. He came to sign the deal, not to call Vance a bitch in the WH.

Because Ukraine is Russia.

It's like in Nigeria, south east goes their way and start fighting with south south, or south West start fighting middle belt, especially if they are known to have upper hand. It's a psychological war.

A war that should never have started.

People will sit in a room and start plotting how to start a war.

Yes note Russia is trying to win over the Ukrainians who are being wooed by NATO.
But months to occupy some villages and Ukraine still has anti-aircraft missiles on.
Ask Iran where their S-300s are. Taken out by Israel from thousands of kilometers away. Israel can fly in and out , those manning their SAMs better switch them off.
Russia has that Oreshnik only that they have used once. It does not want to destroy Ukraine at the same time , but in a war you take out the enemy defences or breach them at will. Russia also is not using other ballistics that rained on Israel from a thousand kilometers away
Why doesn't Iran send their ground army to Israel they have to use cowardly terrorist attacks and then scream genocide when no nonsense Israel retaliates.
Russia has been warning NATO not to send long range weapons that can reach Moscow to Ukraine.Tells you a lot about their much vaunted S-300,400 and 500 efficacies.

Why won't he?
Zelensky that called Vance bi*tch.
Because deal didn't go his way?
He should go and read books on laws of power and negotiation.
I read here he is protecting his country.

Shebi he said his people don't want the war to stop.
Let them continue but count america out.
As for what America contributed, they will get that back.
American govt don't do freebies. It's all interest.

My point is the way Russia is fighting Ukraine will not be the way it will fight EU. They will lose because they have to try and contain so many fronts if The whole EU is attacking. But assuming it's one on one with they UK, they can flatten the cities without the need to even March down to London just as Hitler did with drones and air raids. Now they have balistic missiles that are difficult to intercept.

Only the US and Israel seem to know how to beat air defence at the moment. Other countries have not proven themselves yet.

When Libya happened,they defended Obama left and right.
You can never reason with them.
Until Obama came out to say Libya was his greatest mistake as a president.

One day, zelensky will come out to say that not listening to voice of reason about this war is his greatest mistake.

It's just a matter of time. Let him become ex president first. Reality will start setting in.

Let those cheering him cos they hate a man who want to stop what their master started have the floor.

"How would you describe your current feelings about the amount of waste, fraud and abuse in federal government spending?"

I'm Angry-
DEM: 60%
IND: 70%
GOP: 81%
All Voters: 70%

"How likely is it that some employees of the federal government have engaged in fraud to enrich themselves with taxpayer money?"

It's Likely-
DEM: 59%
IND: 72%
GOP: 78%
All Voters: 70%


For the 1st time ever, JD Vance tops the favorability ranking for US political leaders, with a net positive image of 3pp. Also for the 1st time ever, Trump surpasses Barack and Michelle Obama. Newsom's rating falls to 31%.

Zelensky did not go to sign an economic deal! That would be like you signing an economic deal, when what you need is a security deal.

Zelenskyy said a news conference early Wednesday in Kyiv that a framework of an economic deal had been reached, but that it did not yet include U.S. security guarantees, which his country sees as vital.

Trump made it known from the start that security guarantee should be made by Europe.

So what did he agree to? Why did he go to Washington?

So that gave him the right to try and pander to media present in the office, dressed like a cowboy and call Vance a bitch.
He also goes on to say nothing is acceptable without American boots on the ground.

Reuters reports.
The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said billionaire Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency, had already begun probing potential problems with large sums of U.S. economic and security assistance provided to Ukraine, but those efforts would now be sped up.
"They're already finding problems," the official said, without providing additional details

Are you sure EU countries have given more to Ukraine than Biden did?.
Macron factchecks , were probably for media benefit, maybe the same thing Zelensky wanted . To be praised by media for standing up to Trump?
Trump says $350B, Someone here says $175B ostensibly Trump doubled his figures.
