Or - two professional liars in front of the dumbest journalists on earth -
would be right about the correct way to classify the following press conference session.
Mark Rutte: No, we never said, that Ukraine couldnt be part of Nato! Just that NATO Membership wouldnt be part of the peace deal!
Friedrich Maerz: YES UKRAINE HAS TO DECIDE ON THEIR OWN, which economic alliance, like the EU they want to join. *blink**blink*
Journalist: Would Germany send Peacekeeping troops to Ukraine?
Friedrich Maerz: Well now is not the time to decide or announce that, now - we need a 30 days seizefire!
Friedrich Maerz: Yes Ukraine produce weapens so economically, we can learn very much from that, also they are such experts in drone production, Quantum Systems in germany wouldnt even know how to do it! Such techloge advance, Ukraine!
Both: Also wasnt it the best idea, that Germany, France, GB, and Ukraine agree, that it was such a swell move by Trump to demand a 30 days seizefire now - or put sanctions on russia?
So - from russias perspective
- You announce the 30 day seizefire.
- Ukraine can rotate out troops, and dig better defenses, and …
- then suddenly the seize fire doesnt hold
- and then we finally can put out the narrative, that the US really tried it all, but it didnt work - and now of course the additional sanctions are nothing but warrented
for what in exchange?
Ukraine without a Nato membership option for the entirety of 4 years. Maybe.
And…
A frozen conflict, and…
Crimea being acknowledged as part of russia by the US only, which still would be against international law -- for the entirety of the rest of the Trump presidency!
Throw in a washing mashine, I think russia is about to take that deal!
So close!
Der Standard already reported eight times, that Putin doesnt want peace, if he doest make excellent Trump deal now!
Well to end -
the only thing that wasnt a lie in 23 minutes of press conference was that Maerz currently doesnt give a hoot thinking about the issue, if germany would send peace troops.
Any minute now, Putin will grab excellent peace deal! Any minute!
edit: I think Reisner also just reported, that when the US pull out TOTALLY NOT in coordination with Europe, China might become the next negotiation host!
Simple question, which negotiation?
30 days seizefire now, or economic sanctions?
Fake “russia sucessful” US messaging until Putin dies, and then Ukraine right into Nato?
Five years later - Ukraine getting back occupied territories through negotiations…
Whats russias perspective here?
To overlook all that?
