Hey everyone,
After the complete diplomatic shitshow in DC on Friday and Saturday, Secretary Rubio and Steve Witkoff went to Geneva for talks with the Ukrainians. It’s very likely a diplomatic masquerade that’s going to lead nowhere. At the end of the day faux diplomacy serves Putin’s interest as it has done since Trump entered the White House in January.
Apart from the fact that the Ukrainians struck Moscow’s major power plant yesterday, I bet you Putin is happy with the way things are going. The talks divert attention from Russian bombings of civilian areas of Kharkiv and attacks in the Donetsk province. It keeps the Ukrainians and Europeans engaged in what is most likely a masquerade and keeps them believing there’s something to be had. Most likely it will come to naught!
Watch my take right here:
Stay safe!
