U.S. and Ukrainian readouts after Geneva are not quite the same. The American statement says that Ukrainians told the U.S. that the current draft “reflects their national interests.” But the joint US-Ukrainian statement says no such thing: the talks merely “showed meaningful

Vance v Rubio framing always made sense.

Any order by Zelensky to surrender the heavily fortified cities of northern Donbas, as required by the plan, could precipitate a crisis in civil-military relations, warned @HoansSolo , a Vienna-based military analyst who frequently visits the front line to assess Ukrainian combat

Ukraine : les contre-propositions européennes au plan Trump (texte intégral). https://t.co/gV9VEPbpsN

Dans @Grand_Continent un tableau pour noter les principales différences entre le plan Trump et le plan européen—nettement plus favorable à Kyiv. Une concession mérite d'être soulignée : le retour de la Russie dans le G8 impliquerait-il le retour de Poutine en France dès 2026 ?

The illicit transnational supply chains sustaining Sudan’s conflict. An excellent look at the increasingly large role being played by South Sudan and Kenya, along with Chad, as important nodes in the RSF's illicit supply routes--weapons, fuel in; gold out.

@SlawomirDebski This sounds much more like the real deal

🇺🇦🇺🇸 The first session of talks with the American delegation in Geneva has just concluded. I want to confirm that we had a very productive first session with the distinguished American delegation. We have made very good progress and are moving forward to a just and lasting peace.

I told WSJ that given the leverage the US seems willing to exert, Zelenskyy would need to consider the peace proposal seriously, even though the current version would be impossible for Ukrainians to accept The real question is whether Ukraine can get a better deal. 1/

En tous cas, pour 2027, le choix sera clair: il y aura ceux qui veulent que la France reste autonome, et ceux qui voudront la soumettre à la Russie.

Sur ce point de la sensibilisation aux enjeux stratégiques: beaucoup de gens semblent découvrir que la dissuasion nucléaire n’est pas une cloche à fromage qui protège tout, partout, tout le temps. Et ce n’est pas entièrement de leur faute: le discours politique a pu donner cette

BREAKING: After talking to @SecRubio, @SenatorRounds announces that the 28 point plan was a Russian document, not a US document. Full @SenatorRounds: "@SecRubio did make a phone call to us this afternoon. I think he made it very clear to us that we are the recipients of a

L'intervention du @CEMA_FR a beaucoup fait parler. Mais derrière les indignations, la prendre dans son ensemble est encore le meilleur moyen de se faire son opinion: https://t.co/i9ayuqG5nj

I’m having a strong déjà vu from the days of the “mineral deal.” First they threaten you, issue ultimatums, grab you by the throat, throw hysterics with foam at the mouth, put on demagogic performances on social media, toss some insane nonsense at you on a greasy, wrinkled sheet

Mess. Now Kremlin posturing to try to ask for more or seeding even more landmines into the text. Putin: “this text has not been discussed with us in any substantive way,” but it could still serve as “the basis for a final peace settlement.”

Russian troops have raped and tortured children in Ukraine. The proposed peace plan includes amnesty for crimes like these. https://t.co/1zXicxjF07

«Nous vivons l’un des moments les plus difficiles de notre histoire.» Volodymyr Zelensky répond à Donald Trump et lance un appel au peuple ukrainien. Nous publions le texte intégral de ce discours à lire absolument aujourd'hui. https://t.co/v3CQ3YmV1V

New: According to senior European officials I spoke with about the meeting noted below by the US embassy here in Kyiv, it did not go well. One senior European official described the tone of the meeting as “nauseating”. US army secretary Daniel Driscoll told European ambassadors

One of the many things I cannot wrap my head around when it comes to this so-called "peace plan" is that it treats Ukraine as an entirely uninhabited chunk of land. The population of the Fortress Belt cities alone (Slovyansk, Kramatorsk, Druzhkivka etc) is likely over 100k,

Un grand texte, d'un homme d’État. Lucide, sans extrémisme. Déterminé. Qui fixe une limite absolue : la liberté et la dignité d'un peuple. A lire. https://t.co/7QYRXMDpwW
