The moment the Approval Rns drops, which could be this month, next month or sometime this year.

Then they can begin searching for a rig and enter negotiations with a view to signing a drilling contract.

Only then can we have a drill date.

Drill date 3 months at best from approvals rns.

Q2 is almost out of the question , Q1 was out last year.

And as Troagen, as you mentioned Starlink, remember that the entire Ukrainian front line would collapse if the US turned it off and they can do this if they so wish regardless of who pays for it.

😅 Troagen didn't know that the US contributes more to Nato than everyone else put together 60%.

Nato have given Ukraine almost $200 Billion so the US has given $120Billion of that on top of the $175Billion Sleepy Joe gave away to Zelensky & his pals yo buy those palaces & yachts.

So the US is in for almost $300 Billion.

And its still supplying vital military aid now that no one else can like Patriots & Himars as well as many other pieces of military equipment to keep the ever losimg Ukrainian meat grinder going till the last man.

Without US Military Aid & Support, Ukraine surrenders unconditionally the next day.

The 2800 Post Eua Troll thinks & the US does not provide Military Support to Ukraine .Wrong !

The US is providing every kind of military aid possible to Ukraine by selling it to Nato and Nato then gives it to Ukraine.Without this military aid Ukraine would be finished in weeks.

This military aid includes the very important Patriot air defence systems

Artillery Guns & Shells,Tanks, Armoured Personal carriers and many other pieces of equipment as well as the best intelligence in the world.

If the US stopped selling this aid to Nato for Ukraine then peace follows very quickly.

That's a fair & valid point T, If the US said we are No longer supplying military aid to Ukraine and we will not give Ukraine any security guarantees then the war would end almost in an instant but the US will.l, for some reason, not use this bargaining chip as a threat to end the war so on it goes and it will go on & on as long as the US keeps supplying military aid and Europe keeps paying for it.

Also the US is too soft on Russia as well, they should say if you do not make peace by X, then full sanctions will remain on 10/15 years after the war stops, they should also threaten to cut all ties with Russia for 10/15 years after the war ends too and all Europe should state the same.

Let's see how clever The Pig Face Pariah is then as he's cast into the abyss for a few decades regardless of if or when he decides to make peace in Ukraine.

They didn't say which June though but they can push the timeframe back again as they always do so its as I thought, we are many months off peace at best and it could be years at worst.

Both parties are just going through the motions at these peace talks with no intentions at all of making peace.

Ukraine & Russia are just using these talks as a Charade for the US and the world to show both parties are trying for peace when in reality both parties are actually making sure that there is no chance of peace at any of these Charade meetings.

Ukraine has no intention of making peace as it wants the war to drag on until the next US elections - when they hope Biden's Brigade gets back in again to stop all communication with Russia and begin sending hundreds of Billions & military aid again to Ukraine whilst Putin has no intention of making peace until Ukraine surrenders unconditionally and he's content to keep taking more of Ukraine until they do.

Fair play to DT for trying but he cannot force the two parties to make peace when they both have absolutely no intentions of making peace.

There will be no approval until the new cabinet is announced. Tower have been told this by the Cameroon Government.

So we must have the reshuffle first.

There are no peace negotiations !

Both sides simply inform each other of their unacceptable terms and then agree a small prisoner exchange for the press before going back home and stating progress has been made.

Same thing at all the previous 9 meetings & this one will be no different.

Complete waste of time and nothing but a Charade by both Ukraine and Russia to outwardly pretend they are seeking peace but in reality both only actually want peace on their own 'unacceptable' terms so they both know peace is not at all on the agenda on any of these meetings but they have to go along with them to pretend to the world & Trump thay they are seeking peace when in fact they 100% are both not !

Totally agree the ministry are indeed working as normal as was proven with the 3rd Feb Gas deal so there's every chance we could be next in line but Jezza is not very well informed if he's waiting for the new cabinet to be announced to sign Thali off if the existing one is still operating throughout Jan/Feb & March, (as we know they are) before the new one is announced after the Polls in March.

Hopefully we are next in line🤞

I didn't miss that out just as I didn't miss out the 27 countries sending military equipment to Ukraine,which you intentionally missed out !

The apparent March cabinet reshuffle after the polls has no impact whatsoever on approvals given this Jan/Feb or most of March as the current cabinet is working as normal and signing agreements off as proven with the Feb3rd Gas deal.

They just haven't signed off Thali yet but that's nothing to do with the any potential future cabinet reshuffle, contrary to what Jezza RNS'd last month.

I'm not for Russia at all but I don't see the gain of Ukraine fighting a losing battle to the last man before raising the white flag either and that's there only realistic plan unless Russia accept Ukraines peace terms, which is never going to happen.

There has been 9 rounds of peace talks between Russia & Ukraine over the last 4 years and the only agreement ever made at them were prisoner swaps so they have all been a complete waste of time as you can do prisoner swaps without bilateral/trilateral meetings of this level.

Complete Waste of Time !

Stop the military aid ( and yes Troagen the US are still supplying military equipment to Ukraine just Europe must pay for it now) and cut all ties with Russia and ramp up sanctions to the max and

I'd also state full sanctions will remain on Russia for 10 to 15 years after hostilities cease if they refuse to agree a peace deal within the next 3 months and see how Pig Face Putin likes that.

I'm not seeing any progress at these peace talks, prisoner swaps at this one just the same as the one a year ago, other than that nothing !

Its time for the US to threaten to pull out and stop all military aid to Ukraine and cut all ties with Russia and ramp up sanctions to the max on Putin and let them fight it out to the last man.

Trump's patience with the complete lack of progress on both sides must be wearing extremely thin.

There's been No progress on the key issues for years and I don't think Ukraine or Russia want a peace deal unless on their own respective terms, which are totally unacceptable for both parties.

Sure, they have to both feign interest so as to not lose US interest, which would hurt them both but they are just going round in circles now and these endless meetings seem a complete waste of time as no progress on key issues is ever made.

If there's no give on key issues as there clearly isn't then there is no point meeting just to swap a few prisoners and reiterate each others unacceptable terms, that can be done without these meetings, which are supposed to be negotiations for peace but there are no negotiations, they just both state their own unacceptable terms to each other meet after meet/, after meet, after meet, after meet,after meet,after meet, year after year after year !

Time for Big Don to pull the plug on this Charade !

So if all cabinets are working as normal and we know they are because they signed off an energy deal onky the other day, why is Jezza waiting for a cabinet reshuffle to sign Thali off ? ??

It states Insiders say Cabinet Reshuffle will be after March Polls.

Just read an article dated Jan 26th saying that Insiders say the Cabinet Reshuffle could be in March now after the polls, although there's no reason why this cabinet cannot sign Thali off like they did for another energy company the other day as posted here.

So it could be anytime but no one knows, even Jezza, who went to see them before Christmas was waiting for the cabinet reshuffle for the signing off but that was due early Jan, which has long past so he knows no more than anyone else on the matter.

Patience

Of course, there can be no peace deal at these lower level talks. These talks are only to prepare for the meeting of the 3 Leaders to sign a peace deal and whilst they are 90 plus percent there, they are not yet ready to have the Trump/Zelensky/ Putin summit.

So we must be patient and allow them the time they need to conclude a deal.

It may be a few weeks or a few months but we are on the last section of road to peace.

I shall continue to buy the dips & bide my time until peace is agreed, then I get my payback.

I don't think sad, twisted, warped, deranged, boring or any other words can suffice to describe why any sane human would post 28000 times on a share they detest and have no vested interest in !
