The War in Ukraine

[The Bread Guy]

So let's see ...

• No ceasefire or deal (with talk of even less than a ceasefire)
• A bit of theatrics
• (Maybe?) a bit of USSR 2.0 "journalists" fulfilling their "TECHINT collection while on 'assignment' overseas" PO
• Nice welcome for Putin
• No sanctions lifted or imposed
• No Russian demands changed
• Maybe "future meetings"

All this about 5,000 hours or so after POTUS47's inauguration, when (based on previous statements) he would bring down a deal on this file within 24 hours.

Well, at least UKR's President got to speak his piece, right? Right?

Well, to be scrupulously fair, did USSR 2.0 really get everything it wanted? This from Darth Putin KGB ...

Broadly true as this is, though, looks like POTUS47 - and UKR - came away with less than planned from the latest meeting on the future of UKR without UKR being there.
