A rushed US-Russia proposal, conveyed to Ukraine through Dmitriev and Witkoff to Umerov, has been confirmed.

It amounts to a de facto Ukrainian capitulation and reflects only the Kremlin’s maximalist demands.

The proposal includes:

— Halving Ukraine’s army

— Giving up certain weapons

— Surrendering Donbas

We just have a new plane: F-47.

Boeing says it reaches levels that has never been reached, both in terms of stealth and speed.

Trump:

F-47, how did that number get chosen, I don't know.

I did not pick it.

Trump calls the Biden administration the “previous regime.”

Trump:

I met with pollsters the day before I got the news about Covid because we were starting to think about the next election.

They said, “Sir, if George Washington and Abraham Lincoln came back from the dead and they aligned, you’d be beating them by 25 points.”

Trump:

My poll numbers just went down, but with smart people, they've gone way up.

Trump:

We are not going to be successful if we don't allow people that invest billions of dollars in plant and equipment to bring a lot of their people from their country to get that plant open, operating and working.

I am sorry.

Trump:

Turkey is down 33%, and I am not talking about the country.

Erdogan is fine, he is doing good.

He is a friend, we need to take care of our friends.

Trump to Elon Musk:

You are so lucky I am with you, Elon.

Has he ever thanked me properly?

Trump on Fed's Powell:

He has got some real mental problems.

He has something wrong with him.

Trump:

Coal needs a little help public relations wise, so we refer to it as "clean beautiful coal."

Trump:

I am a little disappointed in Putin right now, he knows that.

BREAKING: Trump:

MBS would like me to do something about Sudan.

We will start working on Sudan.

Putin:

Life expectancy may reach 150 years, but even that would not be enough.

What matters most is how you live those years and for what purpose.

Trump’s new proposal to end the Ukraine war would have Ukraine cede more territory—giving Russia full control of the Donbas and freezing current lines in Kherson and Zaporizhzhia—in exchange for a U.S. security guarantee meant to deter future Russian attacks.

The plan would see the U.S. and others recognize Crimea and the Donbas as Russian, though Ukraine would not have to.

Washington says “ball is in Zelensky’s court.”

Kremlin:

Russia is open for talks on Ukraine.

Kremlin:

We can momentarily set up a Putin–Trump call if needed.
