Foreign Affairs writes about the "hidden history" of diplomacy that could have ended the war. It was not "hidden"! The media refused to report on verifiable facts & smeared anyone who discussed it as "Putinists" and "propagandists" Why did the media fail to report on the following: - On the first day after Russia invaded, Zelensky confirmed that Moscow contacted them to negotiate peace based on neutrality - On the third day after the invasion, both Moscow and Kiev confirmed negotiations would start based on restoring Ukrainian neutrality. - The US spokesperson, Ned Price, argued the US could not support the peace negotiations as this war was much greater than Ukraine - The Israeli and Turkish mediators at the negotiations confirmed they were close to an agreement as Russia would compromise on everything besides neutrality / end of NATO expansionism, but the US and UK blocked it as they saw an opportunity to weaken Russia by fighting with Ukrainians - The head of Zelensky's political party confirms there was a deal, and the former advisor of Zelensky also confirms there was a deal but the Americans could get the Russians and Ukrainians to fight each other. - Ukrainian ambassador Chalyi who participated in the peace negotiations argues Putin "tried everything" to get a peace agreement and they were very close to a deal before it was postponed - General Harald Kujat, former head of the German Army and Chairman of the NATO Military Committee, argues a deal reached before the US and UK sabotaged it by telling Zelensky they would not support the peace agreement but would give him all the weapons he needed to defeat Russia on the battlefield. According to Kujat, the US and UK saw an opportunity to kill Russians and thus weaken a strategic rival This has been an amazing propaganda campaign, appealing to the best in humanity to do the worst. They provoked a war and sabotaged all paths to peace to fight Russia to the last Ukrainian, and they sold it to the public as "supporting" and "helping" Ukraine. Almost every "pro-Ukrainian" policy since the coup in 2014 failed to have support from the majority of Ukrainians and always ended in tragedy for their nation. - The only reason we are now allowed to speak about the negotiations is that NATO has run out of Ukrainians and the war is lost. The public must therefore be prepared for a settlement after two years of claiming that Ukraine is winning while refusing to even sit down and talk with Russia. Absolutely disgusting and shameful!
On 25 February 2022, the day after the Russian invasion, President Zelensky argued: "Today we heard from Moscow that they still want to talk. They want to talk about Ukraine's neutral status.… We are not afraid to talk about neutral status". president.gov.ua/en/news/zverne… On the next day, 26 February, Zelensky reaffirmed his preparedness to negotiate about Ukraine’s neutrality: “If talks are possible, they should be held. If in Moscow they say they want to hold talks, including on neutral status, we are not afraid of this. We can talk about that as well.” reuters.com/world/europe/u… On 25 February 2022, the first day after the Russian invasion, even as Zelensky agreed to discuss neutrality, US spokesperson Ned Price announced Washington rejected any peace talks without preconditions as he insisted the US could not accept diplomacy before Russia withdrew all its forces from Ukraine: “Now we see Moscow suggesting that diplomacy take place at the barrel of a gun or as Moscow’s rockets, mortars, artillery target the Ukrainian people. This is not real diplomacy… If President Putin is serious about diplomacy, he knows what he can do. He should immediately stop the bombing campaign against civilians, order the withdrawal of his forces from Ukraine, and indicate very clearly, unambiguously to the world, that Moscow is prepared to de-escalate.” state.gov/briefings/depa… On 21 March 2022, US spokesperson Ned Price suggested that a diplomatic settlement was not entirely up to Ukraine as it was also a conflict about world order: "This is a war that is in many ways bigger than Russia, it’s bigger than Ukraine…. The key point is that there are principles that are at stake here that have universal applicability everywhere, whether in Europe, whether in the Indo-Pacific, anywhere in between". state.gov/briefings/depa…
@Glenn_Diesen Boris Johnson ended the peace talks !! 500,000 dead injured Now streets are named after hero Boris in Ukraine @PLCROSSTALK @DanielLDavis1 @georgegalloway
@Glenn_Diesen It was not hidden at all. Ukrainian newspapers wrote long articles about it. I heard about it already in May 2022. And I found it telling that all the corporate MSM in the West simply buried this important story.
I just this moment learned that Boris Johnson was born in Manhattan! Born in Manhattan to a father, studying at Columbia and then working for the world bank…. it’s almost like they create offspring to prolong their roles as gatekeepers for this corruption, which is hopefully starting to crumble right before our eyes. this is why they want to shut Twitter down and control our speech. That’s not to say if people don’t always have something up their sleeve to create smokescreen after smokescreen.
@Glenn_Diesen What an absolute joke. Only now, over two years later, is Foreign Affairs admitting that there was an alternate route that would have saved hundreds of thousands of lives. How many times have "Appeasers" like me been attacked by NAFO trolls for suggesting the same thing?
@Glenn_Diesen Isn't this what Putin said on the @TuckerCarlson interview? It breaks my heart, all those killed .. if there was a chance for peace and it was not seized that is very wrong
@Glenn_Diesen @GeromanAT Non-journos saw -US State Dept crook Ned Price and Canada's DefMin Melanie Joly use almost identical talking point ("Ukraine shdnt negotiate at barrel of a gun!") -UK PM BoJo fly to Kiev to stop peace breaking out -Denis Kireev, Ukr negotiator murdered for being too "pro-peace":
@Glenn_Diesen @catoletters RFK laid this out clearly. At least for anyone who wanted to know the truth.
@Glenn_Diesen @RealFeiLong Putin's trolls reposting each other's bunch of lies.
@Glenn_Diesen Very important. This is why and how, it all happend. US proxy war. Including UK, NATO, EU.
