Russian President Vladimir Putin's foreign policy adviser, Yuri Ushakov, has urged the United States to pressure Ukraine to accept Moscow's conditions for an end to the ongoing war.
The US has the necessary influence, Ushakov said in remarks to state television on Sunday. "Precisely to that end, we call on our American colleagues. This is what is now necessary," he said without specifying the actions he wished Washington to take.
Moscow has long called for a halt to Western arms deliveries to Ukraine and for Ukraine to withdraw from the parts of the eastern Donetsk region that it still controls, but Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has ruled this out.
This weekend, Zelensky said the US was insisting on a Ukrainian withdrawal from the region in return for US security guarantees. He has in the past rejected this.
The US could pressure Ukraine by halting deliveries of air defence missiles, and Kiev fears arms could be rerouted to the Middle East. Zelensky said that this had not yet happened.
The Ukrainian president recently toured the Middle East, signing agreements on military cooperation. Ukrainian drone experts are in the region assisting with warding off Iranian drone attacks.
Separately, Zelensky called for a resumption of talks between Kiev and Moscow with US mediation, regretting the fact that the US negotiators were not leaving the US during hostilities with Iran. Moscow has declared its willingness to hold renewed talks.
This sounds like a good thing surely?
And also, any long term holders here, surely to benefit from a bull market, one has to get out at the top.
To spend 10 years on a share like this ( I have ) and not learn that volatility is inherent within, perhaps you should find another interest.
Also it's funny, but I don't recognise some of the posters here from BITD.
