"Only the price on the chart can show the entrance to the deal..."
Trump talks about an amended plan/deal (instead of walking away), doesn't seem to realise the Kellogg plan is dead.
EU/UK can't understand why only Zelensky wants to talk to them.
Mertz says he couldn't possibly accept the US proposal in spite of the fact he's not being asked to because it's nothing to do with him anyway.
Zelensky lays one of his own on Trump's desk (an ultimatum that is). Believed to offer the US MIC a $15 billion investment in exchange for some missiles.
Rutte says the ball is now very firmly back in Russia's court - again.
Confused? You won't be after this week's episode of SOAP.
Interesting that 2 items of the Kellogg plan granted to Russia that which they never actually asked for, and don't really care about.
They're a concession for avoiding that which Russia does need, but aren't in the US proposal.
Russia never asked for sanctions to be lifted. Putin told businesses months ago not to expect it which was a relief to the many businesses who stepped into the shoes of the western firms who walked out.
The second was the de jure recognition of Russia's de facto control of Crimea. Putin doesn't care, they got it, no one is takin it away from them, so that's that.
Zelensky for some strange reason is finding it impossible to enforce his demands from a losing position.
So he's demanding someone else enforce his demands for him, but no one's stepping up.
So he really has no choice but to back down.
But he'll avoid that at any cost (money, lives, territory) for as long as he can because when he does he knows it's all over for him personally.
Putin just needs to keep going as is.
Trump's in it up to his neck with hands and feet tied and doesn't know how to get out. It's consuming all his and his team's time and energy and they still haven't realised it's a dead end.
Trump's deluded himself into thinking he's the mediator and not actually one of the main belligerents. He keeps saying it's not his war, he should prove it.
He should have either started WW3 or just walked away - 3 months ago.
