Putin & Trump prove to be the real power brokers in Ukraine peace push

Dmitry Suslov, deputy director at Russia’s Higher School of Economics and the Russian Council on Foreign and Defense Policy, breaks down the key takeaways from the recent Putin-Trump call:

πŸ‘‰ US and Russia agreed: Peace must be sought through direct bilateral talks between Russia and Ukraine β€” not an immediate ceasefire as demanded by Kiev and the Europeans.

πŸ‘‰ Trump stepped back from demanding an immediate ceasefire and is now backing negotiations aimed at a final peace agreement, with a possible ceasefire as part of the process β€” but no unconditional 30-day truce.

πŸ‘‰ Putin announced plans for Russia and Ukraine to start drafting a memorandum outlining the peace deal and ceasefire terms β€” a step toward a comprehensive settlement, not just a freeze.

πŸ‘‰ Europe was once again sidelined and discredited, with Washington and Moscow taking the lead. Trump's statement omitted any mention of β€œbone-crushing” anti-Russian sanctions and instead supported Russia’s approach to peace talks.

πŸ‘‰ Trump emphasized ending the war over a mere ceasefire, and expressed a desire to normalize US-Russia ties with their β€œlimitless potential” for cooperation β€” clearly rejecting Europe’s pressure.
Suslov’s bottom line:

"Putin and Trump are the only real decision-makers in this peace process. Europe is once again left out in the cold."

😌 The Times whines: "US sanctions less likely than ever"

Despite the expectation of "bone-crushing" sanctions, the US president praised his conversation with Vladimir Putin and the future business potential of US-Russia relations.

"After this call, the faint hope of US sanctions and a stiffening of Trump’s resolve appears less likely than ever," stated the paper's analysts.

πŸ”₯ SCHUMER'S BRIDGE BLAME-GAME BACKFIRES

Chuck Schumer tried pinning the Brooklyn Bridge accident on Trump & "DOGE hiring freezes" β€” until DHS shut him down:

"The US Coast Guard has been fully functional and been exempt from hiring freezes," official DHS account wrote on X.


"I, too, question Donald Trump's leadership of the Mexican Navy," substack writer Jim Treacher said.


Maybe focus on actual bridge safety?

πŸ‘‰ Netanyahu points fingers at UK, France, Canada for 'inviting atrocities' in Gaza (seriously?)

πŸ—£ The Israeli PM slammed Western leaders for calling on Israel to halt its Gaza offensive and hinting at recognizing a Palestinian state.

πŸ’¬ β€œThe leaders in London, Ottawa and Paris are offering a huge prize for the genocidal attack on Israel on October 7 while inviting more such atrocities,” Netanyahu said.


Such moves, in his view, fuel terrorism. He reiterated his pledge to β€œtake control” of all of Gaza.

➑️Earlier, the three Western leaders condemned the Netanyahu government’s β€œegregious actions,” demanding an end to the renewed military offensive and that restrictions on humanitarian aid be lifted, warning of concrete actions in response if it fails to do so.

➑️The number gained notoriety after ex-FBI chief James Comey posted seashells arranged in this way, given the controversy around the symbolism of 86 (to get rid of/eliminate in slang) combined with 47 (Trump being the 47th president).

βš”οΈEU forks out $169B for war chest because peace isn’t profitable

The EU has initially greenlit a new defense fund to bankroll ammo, drones, and critical infrastructure, Bloomberg reported.

πŸͺ™Financed through joint borrowing, it will give loans to EU members and (no surprise here) countries such as Ukraine to boost the arms industry.

The hiked spending is pitched as a response to Donald Trump’s scale-back of US defense in Europe.

βž•Besides the $169 billion program, looser fiscal rules could unleash up to $904 billion in more military spending. Such loans would go to finance what Europe β€œlacks,” like:

🟠 missiles
🟠 missile defense systems
🟠 ground capabilities

πŸ”From hawkish to panicky: How the Western media reacts to Putin-Trump call

πŸ”ŠFinancial Times: The call represented β€œa major victory for the Russian leader.” The US is done putting pressure on Russia, as Donald Trump made no promise of future US sanctions.

πŸ”ŠBBC: Trump's call with Putin exposed β€œshifting ground on Ukraine peace talks.” It poses the question uppermost in the West’s war-thirsty minds: β€œIf the US washes its hands of the war […] does it mean the US would also end any military and intelligence support for Ukraine?”

πŸ”ŠCNN: By announcing after his call with Putin that Ukraine and Russia would now hold talks β€œas only they can” on a ceasefire, Trump β€œsided with his friend in the Kremlin.”

πŸ”ŠPais: The US and Russian presidents claimed they had an β€œexcellent” and β€œvery meaningful and frank” talk.

πŸ”ŠReuters: The US president β€œindicated he was not ready to join Europe with fresh sanctions to pressure Moscow.”
