Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that Russia had trapped the remaining Ukrainian soldiers in its western Kursk region, where they have held on for more than seven months in one of the most important battles of the war.
So… Let me check I get this right on the timeline.
America Europe Ukraine meet, agree to a 30 day ceasefire. Agree this tests if Russia is serious about ending the war. Putin gobbs off, surrender or die.
Categorical that Russia is not serious about ending the war.
Next steps boys
Trump gets angry how his perfect plan fails, calls for sanctions and increased weapon delivered to Ukraine of of spite.
I think we know he’ll do the opposite. Him being a Russian asset is practically accepted fact at this point
For anyone not reading the article he is specifically talking about any troops Ukraine has left in the Kursk region as there has been a general pullback into Ukraine from Kursk in the last few days. This is not about the wider peace negotiations.
I feel like fast doesn’t change anything. “Surrender or die” is not very “peac-y” whether you’re in Kursk or somewhere else.
That is how war generally works. Until a peace is negotiated you would like the other side to surrender or die. Yeah Putin started it, but that doesn’t change the nature of war.
Right. But the point people are trying to make is that the title is somehow “misleading”.
Strange because the actual title of the article mentions that fact. it appears the link seeks to make it as clickbaity as possible.
Yeah. I didn’t like that. I don’t like Putin but misinfo isn’t going to help.
Surprises me even more because it is VOA.
Trump was supposed to end this war in a day. Has it been a day yet?
Yes a very weird one… Albeit a long one.
TBF he never specified which day.
Check again tomorrow
Congress passed a resolution that literally says days no longer pass.

Whoa
One of his goons said he WILL end it in a day. How far away that day is… who knows.
Putin really meant, “Surrender AND die”.
Fucking war criminal.
Its wild to think that when this started I was not married and my now wife then girlfriend was still in college. Time flies. Aside from that, what the fuck putin?
Hm this is going to be a real speedbump on the way to Trump’s Nobel
I heard that Duterte got his Nobel price for his hard work in the Filipines! C’mon putin, visit Cancun but why not have some touchdowns along the way. See if you can tell interpol from cute dancers or maybe food servants? The interpol has your price! Come get it!
After reading this article, I have to say that the headline/image are pretty misleading. He was talking about Kursk, the region of Russia that Ukraine invaded: he said it’s back under Russian control and the Ukraine forces there are surrounded. Then he said they have two options: surrender or die.
I’m not defending Putin here. Just that he’s evil enough without actually taking things out of context to twist what actually happened into some clickbait headline.
Are there any actual news sources left? They all seem to be clickbait.
Frankly the news media have been suspect from the very beginning. There’s never been a time when they were not biased or sensationalist. All we can do is read them critically, and not rely overly much on any single source.
So more weapons and aid to Ukraine it is then.
Hey Putin, wanna hear a funny story?
In the words of The Dread Pirate Roberts: “Death First!”
He actually said, " Ukrainians must surrender or I die" but the media being what they are…
Headline will probably work as well if you just switch positions of “Putin” and “Ukrainians”.
Edit: The words in the headline, you dinguses. Switch the positions of the words and the headline will probably be true just the same way 🤦😄
You are not good at your job.
Why? Given what Putin ordered to be done to Ukrainians I can imagine that many if not most would like to see him surrender or die himself.
