U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken says the United States and its allies should not support a cease-fire or peace talks to end the war in Ukraine until Kyiv gains strength and can negotiate on its own terms. Blinken said in Finland on Friday that heeding calls from Russia and others for negotiations now would result in a false “Potemkin peace” that wouldn’t secure Ukraine’s sovereignty and or enhance European security. He argued that a cease-fire allowing Russian President Vladimir Putin “to consolidate control over the territory he has seized, and rest, rearm, and re-attack" would not bring "a just and lasting peace.” Kyiv has given confusing signals about whether a counteroffensive is coming or already underway.
“We believe the prerequisite for meaningful diplomacy and real peace is a stronger Ukraine, capable of deterring and defending against any future aggression,” Blinken said in a speech in Finland, which recently became NATO’s newest member and shares a long border with Russia.
Oh I’m sorry, your shithole country is only occupying Syria without having officially incorporated the regions you’re pillaging. That makes it totally different. 🤡
Around a third of a country including major food and oil producing regions. Are you in a cave where google isn’t available?
Huh, I didn’t realize that we had a 51st state. Who is the new governor?
Wait, I just looked at a map. It turns out the US borders haven’t changed. Are in you in a cave where the definition of “annexation” is unavailable?

Yes, it does. It means that the US is among the countries that gave up using force to alter its boundaries, whereas Russia is not among them.
That’s right, instead US just comes and occupies countries whenever it feels like. Totally different though. 🤡
Many countries, including Russia, just come and occupy countries whenever they feel like.
Actual annexation is what makes Russia the greater evil.
Nah, the country that massacred over 6 million people with its war on terror is the actual greater evil, and the reason US does mass murder around the globe is because of people like you https://bylinetimes.com/2021/09/15/up-to-six-million-people-the-unrecorded-fatalities-of-the-war-on-terror/
Russia has far more blood on its hands than the US, starting with almost 6 million in Ukraine alone.
That is objectively false, but you keep on doing you.
This article is a joke. Its estimate of “people murdered by the US” is driven by deaths of anti-government forces in Syria.
You are literally saying the US is the “greater evil” because of people killed by Russia and its allies. Typical tankie intellectual dishonesty.
