Once again Russia rejects the ceasefire, once again there's no response from the West, once again the cowardly Western Europe and America allows Putin to play games and delay things, once again they allow him to buy for time, Putin refuses to come and negotiate with Zelenskyy directly. Once again, for the 50th time, does Russia completely ignore America and Europe's ultimatums and once again they do nothing in response. Look, it is to be expected of Trump, he is a coward, but Europe is just as much to blame too.
First he blatantly rejects Trump's ceasefire proposals multiple times, and Trump gets on his hands and knees and kisses his feet and defends him, then Europe comes in like "Accept this ceasefire or big bad things will happen to you!" and Russia says "No" then Europe says "Okay, we're sorry, lets wait and see how peace negotiations go" the same old delay tactic peace negotiations where Russia presents their maximalist demands which basically equate to Ukraine's complete surrender and then tries to paint Ukraine as the unreasonable one for not accepting.
This feels like Russia is trying to trap Ukraine into turning America against them again, they will demand Ukraine's complete surrender, dismantling of their military, a whole bunch of other shit and then when Ukraine refuses they will cry to Trump that Zelenskyy is being unreasonable, a situation we wouldn't fucking be in, if Europe actually backed up their stance of "CEASEFIRE ON THE 13TH OR ELSE. NO DEALS BEFORE CEASEFIRE!" and it feels like Zelenskyy is trying to make the best of the situation by demanding Putin shows up, he is pre-empting their bullshit and therefore making a demand that likely won't happen, Putin is very unlikely to show his face.
