In Reply to: Zelensky is preparing to disavow the "peace process"... posted by Jim Pearce on February 19, 2025 at 15:19:55:
There's no stake in the war for the US population and it lost interest months ago.
If Harris had been elected, the US House would have stopped all funding.
And Zelensky has no cards to play. It's either agree to whatever terms are negotiated between the US and Russia or let Ukraine get ground to bits because the US isn't going to fund the war anymore. And Europe? The AfD is on the march in Germany, Marine Le Pen is on the verge of realizing her long-time goal, and Nigel Farage is already picking out his new tea set for No. 10 Downing Street.
The war was pointless. The destruction and deaths meaningless. Even a President Harris would never have given Ukraine any more than it needed to maintain a stalemate, assuming the House would have supported the funding.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
