US president admits to concern Russian counterpart does not want to ‘stop the war’ and ponders new approach to Moscow

Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelenskyy have sat down for a face-to-face talk in the opulent halls of a Vatican basilica to discuss a possible ceasefire, after which the US president accused his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, of not wanting to “stop the war”.

The White House described Trump’s meeting with the Ukrainian leader before Pope Francis’s funeral as “very productive”, while Zelenskyy said on X that the talk with the US president was symbolic and had the “potential to become historic, if we achieve joint results”.

It was the first time that Zelenskyy and Trump had met face to face after a frosty February encounter in the White House where Trump and the US vice-president, JD Vance, berated the Ukrainian leader and accused him of ingratitude for US aid.

      I’m sorry, I’ll only discuss my true feelings on geopolitics with people who declare for proletarian revolution and call for a protracted people’s war against global Capital along Maoist third-worldist lines.

      Fuck outa here, dipshit. Engange or disengage, your call. I couldn’t tell you where the block person button is, never used it in the five years I’ve had this account, but I’m sure you already know. Feel free to crawl back to whatever hugbox you usually inhabit and brag how you karate-chopped a battalion of Putin’s strongest cyborg posters or something.
