Zelensky is crazy to do any kind of deal with Trump. The man's word is worthless. A contract with him is worthless.

He would be giving up minerals and not getting security. Peace must made between the parties at war. Zelensky is out of his depth.

Vance, Trump, and Zelensky get into a shouting match in the Oval Office.
I keep saying this but I cannot believe this is happening.

Yowzers.
Zelenskyy has left the White House moments ago, with the press conference between the two leaders, where they were expected to sign a deal on minerals, also cancelled.
Zelensky posted this on X:
Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you
@POTUS, Congress, and the American people.
Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.

Might as well jump on a China Airlines flight and see what Winnie Xi Pooh offers for the minerals

Trump ordered Rubio and Waltz to tell Zelensky to leave. Before lunch was served. Zelensky's speech at the Hoover Institute tonight is cancelled
Czech prime minister Petr Fiala says:
We stand with Ukraine and on the side of the free world!
and Latvian prime minister Evika Siliņa added simply:
Latvia stands with Ukraine.
The Swedish prime minister Ulf Kristersson said:
Sweden stands with Ukraine. You are not only fighting for your freedom but also for all of Europe’s. Slava Ukraini!
The Lithuanian president Gitanas Nausėda has also joined in:
Ukraine, you’ll never walk alone.
… and the Irish foreign minister Simon Harris:
Ukraine is not to blame for this war brought about by Russia’s illegal invasion. We stand with Ukraine.
Norwegian prime minister Jonas Gahr Støre is the latest European leader to offer his support for Zelenskyy and Ukraine as he says this:
We stand by Ukraine in their fair struggle for a just and lasting peace.
The Swedish prime minister Ulf Kristersson said:
Sweden stands with Ukraine. You are not only fighting for your freedom but also for all of Europe’s. Slava Ukraini!

Standing with Ukraine is all well and good, as long as it means you funnel as much high tech weaponry from your own arsenals as you have, and budget to replace it with triple the amount you had to begin with. If these nations aren't willing to do that, and put hundreds of thousands of young men and women in uniform, then it's the old British saying, ...
"Find words butter no parsnips."

So disappointed in Rubio.
Rubio, however, took to X and commended the President for his firm stance and courage.
'Thank you @POTUS [President Trump] for standing up for America in a way that no President has ever had the courage to do before. Thank you for putting America First. America is with you!,' he wrote.

You might not be disappointed in Rubio if you were a Floridan. This topic traversed delicate issues and I'll leave it alone. I will say my guess is he's another player who's out of his depth.

If there exists anyone who does not already know Tim Snyder, he is arguably America's leading expert on central and eastern Europe.

Crazy economist who likes to write about higher education.

Winston Churchill visiting the White House during WWII. Love his suit.
A quip about the staged fracas in the WH ...
"A reporter who's dating a woman in Congress who looks like a Neanderthal takes issues with a man who isn't wearing a suit while fluffing for the two men wearing makeup in the Oval Office."

Everyone should listen to Snyder's remarks. Sadly the people who most need to hear them probably won't.
Snyder has included some links to organizations that benefit Ukraine, for those inclined to lend their support.

Nothing like a bit of power dressing in expensive suits.Whodathunk a comedian would make a better politician than two smartly dressed plonkers.
