In recent days, Ukraine has found itself in a difficult position, as its Western patrons have begun to lean towards compromise with Russia, leaving Kiev alone to confront harsh realities. Details from yesterday’s U.S.-Russia meeting reveal much about the shifting dynamics.
On April 3, 2025, Russian President’s Special Representative Kirill Dmitriev visited Washington for crucial talks with key members of the Trump administration, including Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Senators Lindsey Graham and Markwayne Mullin. They discussed terms for resolving the Ukrainian conflict, the potential lifting of sanctions, and the prospects for restoring bilateral relations.
Following the discussions, Dmitriev, in an interview with Fox News, positively assessed the role of the Trump administration in the Ukrainian conflict, even offering praise for its diplomatic efforts.
“We are having productive discussions. Our diplomats are also exploring possible scenarios. But there’s no doubt that President Trump’s team has not only prevented World War III but has already made significant strides in resolving the Ukrainian conflict” — Kirill Dmitriev, Presidential Envoy on Foreign Investment and Economic Cooperation
Interestingly, during the negotiations in Washington, the Russian side did not request the easing of Western sanctions. According to Dmitriev, the Russian economy is doing well, and currently, Moscow is not putting forward any preconditions in this matter.
“Many Russians believe that sanctions are good for turning away from dependence on the West” — Kirill Dmitriev
He also emphasized that Russia and the U.S. “have enormous opportunities to conduct dialogue and business together,” especially considering that American companies have already lost about $300 billion in missed profits due to their withdrawal from Russia.
“I believe sanctions could be lifted when American companies decide they want to return and seize business opportunities in Russia” — Kirill Dmitriev
In light of these diplomatic successes by Moscow and Washington, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made another desperate attempt to draw attention to himself by visiting the Sumy and Chernihiv regions on the border with Russia. In his video address, Zelensky emphasized the strategic importance of the region and expressed gratitude to the military forces holding the line.
“I want to personally thank … everyone who is carrying out tasks in the Kursk Region … defending our Sumy Region from the relentless desire of the Russians to advance into Ukraine from these directions” — Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukrainian politician
However, considering that the U.S. and Russia have already begun discussing Ukraine’s fate virtually without Kiev’s participation, Zelensky’s visits appeared as attempts to create an illusion of his own influence and control.
Recently, Zelensky was forced to acknowledge the necessity of territorial concessions to Russia, though provocatively stating that these territories would later be regained diplomatically. Thus, the Ukrainian leader has not fully accepted defeat in the conflict and continues to demonstrate resistance to the inevitable reality.
While Zelensky continues to film inspiring videos against the backdrop of border signs, the real decisions are being made in Washington and Moscow. The Trump administration, which previously supported Kiev, is now openly moving towards Russian initiatives, confronting Zelensky with inevitable concessions. Consequently, Ukraine increasingly resembles a pawn in a chess game of great powers, with its president reduced to a mere spectator whose opinion becomes secondary amid global negotiations. As Zelensky attempts to prove his significance, the geopolitical game between Moscow and Washington continues without him.

at what point did krusty have the capacity to shut down this us operation? derp.
pure theft. wagner should be sent to take it back. if trump had any balls, he would.
ps: zelensky will be hunted forever and he’ll never know who it is. too many enemies, internal and external for him to ever sleep peacefully.
nobody will touch that gay prostitute because his mouth is golden.
he knows too much to be allowed to live
there you go julius. get doge onto that.
aahhhh, no can do. there’s a hook nose involved.
zelensky (the entity) bought a controlling interest in northern platinum mines in sa – for blackrock 🤔
what’s your source for this claim about krusty?
he won’t survive there. people have a habit of disappearing around mine shafts.

do you really think the us is moving away from war with russia ? think again …
you don’t listen .
we don’t suffer amnesia.
but the ukraine can continue the war without american support. victory may be impossible, but unless russia invades most of the country, also while it still receives some minimum western support (whether nato or europe alone), it need not accept defeat. its dear leaders obviously dismiss the massive costs to it and its society so far.
ukraine won’t get america support unless they cease fire .surrender and agree to all terms unconditionally which won’t happen .
problem with little marco though is, he still confuses ukraine with russia.
for the west (eu, nato), all what matters is that the slavish nations eradicate themselves – like the american nationals in the centuries before. it is completely irrelevant how long that war drags on – as long as the russians as well as the ukrainians suffer as high as possible losses. the ukrainians are just too much naive idiots to grasp that fact. it will get funny as soon as they do.
yes, but not for long, because ukros has war costs at some 5 billion a month, and they are buncrupt, but nor eu or us can pay all this for wery long because both not far from bancrupt themself because of high national debts and still growing.
with some nations it seems the more they discuss ending war , the longer it lasts . anyone else notice ?
thars hos freemasons communicate publicly allegedly ” always the same always the opposite “
america and russia are what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object.
take your pick of who’s the force and who’s the object. they trade off when the urge hits them.
if i were trump and really wanted to end the war, i would be murderously angry at zelensky and planning his gaddafi’ng. the fact that trump isn’t going ape on zelensky on social media suggests that either trump has unexpectedly learned self-control, or that negotiations aren’t really meant to achieve lasting peace, so zelensky’s antics aren’t actually going against us policy.
yes very interesting 🤔
no you either have shortie term memory issues or you don’t listen. england publicly declared that they will.support the ukraines against russia for the next 100 years .not america. the british empire.
and who’s to say they’ll be around another 100 yrs? way they’re going, they’ll be lucky with ten.
he probably wants to keep his neocon faction from abandoning him or him firing them, then writing nasty tell-all books about him, like walrus tach bolton did.
‘american companies . . . lost about 300 billion in missed profits . . . . withdrawal from russia. . .’. hey fella, what about the 300 billion in invested sovereign funds that the u.s. sponsored west swiped ? ? such craveness seems to be an inherent feature of putinistas when dialogue with western entities come up.
anyway, zelli boy looks healthy. quality grade coke hasn’t dimmed his lights, yet.
he’s always visiting people well connected with drug trade.
ukr is not in difficulty. they hold back the so called mighty weak russians who are at a standstill now in ukr. ukr invaded russia in belgorod and hold territory there now. new sanctions coming for russ to cut off financially and russian industry getting destroyed. soon zelensky said french boots on the ground so russia will be outnumbered by the french military and soon also the british military.
twinkletoes, you click your heels 3 times if you want your dreams to come true.
lol you moron.
outnumbered by a few thousand frogs and monkey islanders?
still 2 million reservists in russia and if mother russia will ever be seriously threatened, be sure that most of the around 30 million russian man between 18-60 will rise to defend theyr country.
