Guess Macron will be happy to help him. As well as Sikorski with Tusk. But given that Ze has much more assets in France, choosing the more helpful hand would be no-brainer for him.

Depending on what their Western owners tell them to do, both can wag their tails. They can meet Mr. Putin and shake hands, but now they've been ordered to bark at Russia, so they do. What's so strange about that?

Sikorski o dobrych relacjach z Putinem. Ostra reakcja ze strony wicepremiera Gowina

Europoseł Platformy Obywatelskiej Radosław Sikorski wspomina na Twitterze dobre relacje z prezydentem Rosji Władimirem Putinem i krytykuje PiS. Na kontrowersyjny wpis polityka odpowiedział wicepremier Jarosław Gowin.

Relacje Tuska z Putinem. Tak rząd PO-PSL negocjował kontrakt na gaz. "Za wszelką cenę chciał dołączyć do elit UE"

Donald Tusk od momentu inwazji Rosji na Ukrainę kreuje się na polityka, który latami ostrzegał przed imperialistycznymi zapędami Kremla i uniezależniał nas od Putina. Jego decyzje z czasów, gdy był premierem, świadczą jednak zupełnie o czymś innym. Doskonale obrazuje to skrajnie niekorzystny...

After the corruption scandal, the only way for Zelensky to receive money and weapons from the European allies is to "reinvigorate negotiations" with Russia.

Russian Spy Ship Breached UK Waters, Aimed Lasers At Military Pilots, Britain Says​

"The British government issued a warning to Moscow on Wednesday, putting the Kremlin on notice over a Russian naval vessel allegedly having entered British territorial waters and aiming lasers at UK pilots."

"The UK military scrambled aerial assets in response, including Royal Air Force jets as well as a naval frigate, in order to "track and monitor the vessel," during which time "the Yantar directed lasers at our pilots."

"He condemned the use of the lasers against UK aircraft as "extremely dangerous" and then said he was addressing a warning Russian President Vladimir Putin directly: "We see what you're doing. We are fully aware. And if the Yantar continues south this week, we are prepared," he said."

"A response to the accusations was issued by the Russian Embassy in London. It said Russia isn't interested in sabotaging anything in regional waters. "London, with its Russophobic path and increasing militaristic hysteria leads to further degradation European security, providing the premise for new dangerous situations," it said."

"We call on the British side to hold off taking any destructive steps which might aggravate the crisis situation on the European continent," the embassy added. Russian officials and institutions have been under intense scrutiny in the UK ever since the Ukraine war began, and relations are steadily worsening."

Douglas MacGregor speculates that Ze may have an option to seek refuge in Israel since he's Jewish. Could be a possibility.

Yeah, it is kind of the MO. Like when things soured for many oligarchs in Russia, armed with dual passports. they fled to the holy-land with their booty, although London was also a destination.

Villages and villages are occupied daily by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and not one, but several, now it is the turn of cities. The speed of the Russian army's advance is increasing, especially in some areas, such as the Zaporizhia and Dnipropetrovsk regions. About 30 settlements have already been liberated in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

Fighting is already underway inside Konstantinovka, 15 battalions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are blocked in the Kupyansk area, Putin said.

► Platonovka has been liberated, and urban neighborhoods are being cleaned up in Seversk.

► The Ukrainian military must be able to lay down their weapons and surrender.

► People who sit on gold pots hardly think about ordinary people, Putin says about the Ukrainian "authorities".

This is no longer the political leadership in Ukraine — it is a criminal group, Putin stressed.

► The Kiev leadership retains power for the sake of personal enrichment.

Russian troops took Kupyansk and Yampol
Valery Gerasimov, Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, announced the liberation of Kupyansk in the Kharkiv region and Yampol in the Donetsk People's Republic from Ukrainian forces. He reported this to President Vladimir Putin during a visit to the command post of the Zapad group of forces.

Gerasimov noted that the formations of the Zapad group fully control Kupyansk and are liquidating the surrounded units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the left bank of the Oskol River.

In addition, according to Gerasimov, Russian troops liberated more than 80 percent of Volchansk in the Kharkiv region and 75 percent of Pokrovsk (Krasnoarmeysk) in the Donetsk People's Republic.

In Ukraine, they refute these statements, calling them information manipulation.

Spoiler: Russian spelling

Села и деревни ВС РФ занимает ежедневно и не по одной, а по нескольку, теперь пришел черед городов. Скорость продвижения Российской армии нарастает, особенно на некоторых направлениях, таких как Запорожская и Днепропетровская области. В Днепропетровской области освобождено уже около 30 населенных пунктов.

Does this mean that the US will cut the supply of weapons to NATO countries that buy them for Ukraine?

The Trump's 28-point peace plan is "full of holes", and Britain is preparing to breach it.

[...]
8. NATO agrees not to deploy troops in Ukraine.

10. US Guarantees: The United States will receive compensation for the guarantee. If Ukraine invades Russia, it will lose the guarantee. If Russia invades Ukraine, in addition to a decisive coordinated military response, all global sanctions will be reinstated, recognition of new territories and all other benefits of this deal will be revoked. If Ukraine without cause launches a missile at Moscow or Saint Petersburg, the security guarantee will be considered invalid.

The US will be profiting from the peace plan, so the EU will reject it.

[...]
14. Frozen assets will be used in the following way: $100 billion of frozen Russian assets will be invested in US-led reconstruction and investment efforts in Ukraine. The United States will receive 50% of the profits from this undertaking. Europe will add another $100 billion to increase the total investment available for Ukraine’s reconstruction. Frozen European assets will be unfrozen. The remaining frozen Russian assets will be invested in a separate American-Russian investment vehicle that will implement joint American-Russian projects in areas to be determined. This fund will be aimed at strengthening bilateral relations and increasing shared interests in order to create strong motivation not to return to conflict.

The only way for the US to achieve peace in Ukraine is to stop sending weapons to NATO members which is "mission impossible". Having said that, I have no doubt that Ukraine is heading to destruction.

What a lot of contradictions , misinformation , propaganda and fear are contained in The Man Of Peace 28 point peace plan. I agree that it is full of holes but more than that. I see it as an example of warping reality based on the Military Industrial Complex desire to harm Russia. Where Russophobia is always in charge and where that curse has a long pedigree. Once some idea or belief goes in deeply it is difficult to rewire.
Every one of those points can be contradicted by the reality on the ground. I wonder how many notice the obvious but the Russians surely do . Why Putin reacted in the way he did to the sleight of hand .
Peace and Safety are the passports to our future where the result of tricksters multi temptations will depend on timing and where protections for those who listen to the trickster's calls will be always conditional on absolute obedience.
History teaches There be dragons.

Russian drone operators help a Ukrainian family in Volchansk

Close to Belgorod, just south of the Russian border - to get to safety. Look at the first video, how the father makes contact with the Russian war drone. записка means NOTE. The rest I couldn't translate, because of low-res video and cursive letters mixed in.

The family was caught under NATO's (yes, NATO) shelling and fire. Russian Cossack unit sees the Ukrainian family. And they spring into action. This is 21st century warfare and eternal human suffering in war.

The video color bold subtitles say "assistance to the civilian population", then
"civilians".
Probably giving them exact directions.
The second video:
1. is especially harrowing! Look at the city, the land, all civilian infrastructure looks like Gaza, bombed into oblivion. Thank You NATO! Thank You Western Psychopaths, thank You "F*The EU! Nuland" and her evil Western Cabal.
2. Shows, how the drone operators guide the Ukrainian family to safety. Then this photo is proof they made it, miraculously unharmed by mines. The entire video is heartbreaking!

I look at my whole and unharmed and peaceful small agricultural city in Hungary and compare it with the horrible moonscape in the second video. Ukraine is HELL now!

The 28-point plan seems to be much more realistic than the EU fantasies, but parts of it are still unacceptable for Russia - such as agreeing to their $300 billions being stolen by the West and Ukraine.

It really is quite obvious that the West and Ukraine will agree to an acceptable peace treaty only once the reality on the ground is close to catastrophic for Ukraine. And that seems to be only a matter of time.

Trump's efforts to harm Russia economically (eg. forcing Indian companies to stop importing Russian oil) seems to be the only real leverage the West has left, but it is unlikely to be enough. The only other thing they may do is to get all of NATO into a direct war with Russia, though Trump does not want it I think and even within the EU at least three countries are firmly against that.
