Even some of my readers have Ukraine derangement, where they think the Empire that has been wrong about every war happens to be right about this one. It ain’t true. Ukraine is just one front of the war White Empire is waging on the world, and I hope they lose. Thankfully albeit tragically (by Russia’s own admission), they are. Ukraine is simply exhausted and Empire is bored. Ukraine’s men have been thrown around like toy soldiers and, like the meme goes, America is saying I don’t want to play with you no more. That’s the meaning behind all this talk of negotiations. They’re meaningless. All that’s left is surrender.
Negotiations or Suing For Peace
You have to consider negotiations in this context. Trump has said Ukraine is not his war and he visibly dressed down the already illegitimate (no elections) Zelensky. The deep state and shallow Europeans, however, actually believe their own propaganda, and want more. So they’re trying to put lipstick on a pig they’ve already butchered and negotiate. But with what leverage? More sanctions that didn’t work last time, more pledges of weapons they can’t produce, to be fielded by battalions of ghosts?
These negotiations are like what the Nazis tried at the end of World War II, and which the Red Army just ignored. As Marshall Georgy Zhukov said in his memoirs, “General Krebs, an experienced military diplomat, did his utmost to involve us in long-drawn-out negotiations, but his ruse failed. I have already mentioned that General Sokolovsky, who was empowered to carry on negotiations, told Krebs categorically that the cessation of hostilities was only possible after complete and unconditional surrender of the Nazi troops to the Allies. That was the end of their talk.” This is humorously dramatized in a deleted scene from Downfall.
In much the same way, Putin and Trump’s Alaska summit was very short and pointlessly to the point. Putin didn’t (officially) budge from his position, and the position is that there will be no ceasefire (to reinforce Ukraine) before Ukrainian forces are withdrawn from the Donbass entirely, ie surrender. As Simplicius said,
Russia’s primary confirmed victory in the talks—as opposed to the various speculative parameters now floating about—was aligning the US with Putin’s demand of “agreement before ceasefire”, rather than Zelensky and Europe’s rival demand of “ceasefire before agreement”.
In Putin’s own words, the nature of that agreement would be a “fair balance in the field of security in Europe and in the world as a whole,” which is fairly expansive, and within which Ukraine is just one rapidly diminishing part. The fact is that Ukraine’s leverage gets less and less every day, while Russia’s only improves. They have attrition on their side, whereas Ukraine depends on the American attention span, which is notoriously short. Anyways, after the summit Putin said,
I have repeatedly said that for Russia, the events in Ukraine are associated with fundamental threats to our national security. Moreover, we have always considered the Ukrainian people to be our brothers, as I have said many times. We share the same roots, and what is happening to us is a tragedy and a great pain. Therefore, our country is genuinely interested in putting an end to this.
At the same time, we are convinced that in order for the Ukrainian settlement to be sustainable and long-term, all the root causes of the crisis that have been repeatedly mentioned must be eliminated, all legitimate concerns of Russia must be taken into account, and a fair balance in the field of security in Europe and in the world as a whole must be restored.
The Empire has an expansive concept of national security for itself, which stretches thousands of kilometers from its capital, but cannot understand Russia’s concerns about hostile troops at its border. This is the historical unfairness Putin wants to discuss politically, but is unafraid to dust-up militarily also. That seems to be the only language Empire understands, and for them negotiations are just a ruse. See Minsk I and Minsk II.
As German satrap Angela Merkel said in a December 2022 interview with Die Zeit, “The 2014 Minsk agreement was an attempt to give Ukraine time. Ukraine used this time to become stronger, as you can see today. The Ukraine of 2014/15 is not the Ukraine of today.” This is what the Europeans are still trying to do again, and if someone fools you three times you’re a fool. As America’s idiot President (who now looks like a relative sage) George W. Bush said, fool me once shame on you, fool me twice… shame on, shame on, won’t get fooled again. One hopes.
The nattering Nazis of Europe, calling themselves, “Coalition of the Willing” (the most pathetic nomenclature possible) has said, “They (the coalition participants – Ed.) once again emphasized their readiness to deploy security forces after the cessation of hostilities, as well as to help ensure the security of Ukraine’s air and sea space and restore the Armed Forces of Ukraine.” So what they propose is a ceasefire to resume fire when convenient. AKA Minsk III. Russia is not buying it now, thank goodness. There is frankly no one credible to negotiate with from the Empire, and Russia is winning the war on the ground. Why stop now?
Russia’s Position
The common idiocy is that Russia is on its knees, but that’s not the scene at all. As Larry Johnson said, “Russia’s current GDP, using Purchasing Power Parity (PPP), is estimated at $7.1 trillion, making it the fourth largest economy in the world by this metric, and larger than any single other European economy, according to IMF estimates for 2025.” Europe keeps posturing like Russia is some backwater, but they’re downstream of them economically, and cut off since America blew up Nordstream and clipped their balls. Johnson goes on to contextualize from public data, saying
Russia has low unemployment, inflation is declining and it has a decisively lower debt-to-GDP ratio than all of the major European economies. The UK and France are on an unsustainable economic path, especially if they can’t find some gullible suckers out their to continue buying their debt. Oh, did I mention, that the US debt-to-GDP ratio is around 125%? The US, France and the UK are living on borrowed time, err… I mean borrowed money. If the world is hit with a global financial crisis, Russia is in a far better position to weather the storm than the US and its NATO allies. Moreover, if the US decides to stop funding the war in Ukraine, the UK, France and Germany lack the financial muscle to prop up Zelensky and his band of thieves. I wonder if Trump and the Europeans will discuss that on Monday?
The fact, the central fact, is that Russia is run for the benefit of Russians whereas Europe is cucked for America. America itself bilks its own population for the narrow benefit of a few carnivorous capitalists. The whole White Empire is a fraud and they trapped Ukraine in a protection racket and busted them out.
White Empire’s main complaint about Russia, or Iran, or China, or North Korea is not their political systems but simply their independence. This is the one thing that Empire cannot forgive and if knees don’t bend, they must break them. But they can’t break Russia which simply outproduces and outperforms them. This is a breaking point towards a new world order, where Russia gives orders and doesn’t take them. Clausewitz said “War is merely the continuation of policy by other means,” and Russia is writing policy on the ground.
If you view the war (narrowly and incorrectly) as Russia vs. Ukraine, Russia is able to completely destroy Ukraine’s military and industry while Ukraine isn’t even allowed (for the most part) to strike within Russia. America sacrificed them like a pawn, and the next-to-go bishops of Europe egged them on. Ukraine was never set up to win, they were just supposed to make Russia lose more. The media line (and moronic theory) was that Russia’s about to fall and revolution is about to be unleashed, but this is nothing new. It’s simpler Hitler’s theory rehashed, that, “We have only to kick in the door and the whole rotten structure will come crashing down.” It didn’t work then and it didn’t work now.
Russia has destroyed at least three Ukrainian armies and this one has battalions and brigades in name only, just a few press-ganged men holding each kilometer of porous front. Meanwhile, on the other side, most Russians are doing better than before, the military is growing rather than shrinking, and—if anything—the Russian population is more hawkish than Putin. Putin is really Empire’s best chance to negotiate, but they can’t even agree amongst themselves, and nobody takes their word anymore. So the war goes on.
What This Means
The negotiations, the phone calls, the idea that America never mind Europe are even players, this is all a charade. White Empire can play spoiler and ruin Ukraine, they can despoil Palestine and ruin lives, they can tariff their toys out the pram and scream, but that’s about it. Putin called their bluff in Ukraine and he’s holding all the cards. The state of war in Ukraine is that it will keep going until Ukraine gives up the Donbass that they’ve been fighting over since 2014, or Russia just takes it. There will be no NATO in Ukraine and it’s not even clear that there’ll be NATO in Europe and all. They’re a spent farce, mashallah.
Like Zhukov said when they were last chasing the Nazis out, “And since the Germans at that time refused to agree to unconditional surrender, our troops were ordered to finish the enemy off immediately.” That’s sadly what’s proceeding at the front, where guys my age, forced into battle, are not putting up much of a fight at all. At the final surrender ceremony, Zhukov reported the following interaction, which is sadly still telling now.
[General Field-Marshal Keitel] said: “When we were driving through the streets of Berlin, I was terrified by the extent of destruction.” One of our officers replied: “Mr. Field-Marshal, were you not terrified when on your orders, thousands of Soviet towns and villages were wiped off the face of the earth and millions of our people, including many thousands of children, were buried under their ruins?” Keitel grew pale and shrugged his shoulders nervously but said nothing.
Westerners bemoan the destruction of Ukraine, but why were they there in the first place? Don’t they wonder why destruction spreads every place they ‘help’. These people are like Lennie in Of Mice And Men. Somebody needs to take them out back and shoot them. The fact is that America lied about this war like every war and they were the bad guys all along. Just compare the state of Kiev and Gaza and you can see who fights fair.
The White Empire is committing a genocide right now and they want us to believe that they’re somehow right on Ukraine? And these people still want to lecture about how bad Russia is? What a killing joke. Forget negotiating, there’s no point even talking to White people anymore. It’s a dead identity from a dying empire, with nothing but death to offer in the end. One wishes the White Empire were defeated not just in the Ukraine, but all over the world they’re at war with. But it’s a start. This is the first front in their attack on Asia to fall. May they completely fall apart soon.
