Russia Blames US for Abandoning Ukraine Peace Talks at G-20

The US announced a new military aid package of about $400 million that includes high-precision artillery to improving targeting of Russian forces and equipment.

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy visited front-line troops in the Dnipropetrovsk region on Friday in a rare foray from Kyiv. Germany expects Canada to release a key part for a Russian gas pipeline that’s been caught up in sanctions, a move that could ease the squeeze on gas flows to Europe as natural gas prices are set to post another weekly advance.

Peace talks? Get the hell out of Ukraine 🇺🇦. There, that didn't take much.

[Anjin-qgie]

It's not our fault, it's our problem. We aren't the ones taking over the Ukraine.

[yackablejohnson]

Guess what, you wouldn't need peace talks if the president of your country didn't think he was living in 1984.

I thought Russia was running out of weapons, ammo, hardware, etc. I thought Putin was dying, like of a different disease each two weeks. I thought Ukraine was winning EASY thanks to the heroism of The Ghost of Kiev and Ben Stiller. Who could imagine that “evacuation” actually means surrender, “strategic withdrawal” means running for the hills dropping weapons, leaving wounded and equipment after total rout? How are they going to call Ukraine’s unconditional surrender? May be strategic evacuation across the polish border.

Russia should pay the US back what we gave Ukraine.

[nyrsfqh]

Russia needs to speak with the country that it is invading, ie Ukraine and Ukrainians.

Why is nobody asking about the representatives of the Luhansk and Donbas regions so far?
They can explain very precisely how much independence and affiliation they want from and with other states.

What a bunch of gaslighters and murderers.

[dazknight]

Russia can blame themselves for thier o a n destruction, and they are held accountable. More losses for them, and more souls for us to punish.

Notice how Putin uses the same “Double-Down” reverse SPIN that Trump uses? Are they really that stupid…or do they think we are?

[dudeaciousmonstrosity]

Peace talks? More like Aggressor talks.

[imthebest]

Peace talks with the US. You forget what country your in Russia?

[Colossus-Tone]

Sounds like they are reversing Brandon's playbook of blame everyone else.

[chrundlethegreat]

That sounds like something Biden would say, well played Russia.

Lavrov represents Republican ideals in Russia, he is more their Trump than Putin.
