‘Putin, Stop Your Games’: Starmer, Zelensky Warn Russia, EU’s FULL SUPPORT to Ukraine Against Putin
1. If Trump’s peace initiatives fail and the US withdraws as a party to the conflict, which Trump is already doing indirectly. We got inside information about this.
2. If the globalists stage a provocation and drag Moldova into the war over the Transnistrian case.
3. If the war drags on until the spring of 2026. There are even closed reports about this from Western think tanks, which we have inside information about.
If peace agreements are concluded now, Ukraine will retain its territories and itself as a state, but this is not beneficial to the globalists, Zelensky and the European elites, who blame all the problems in their countries on the “Russian threat”, plus they are making money on the war. It is beneficial for all of them to waste Ukraine and Ukrainians for their own purposes and well-being.
Think!
Our source in the OP said that the Trump Administration has already handed Zelensky the main drafts for the territories that Ukraine must give up, and we are satisfied with the Korean scenario, but the Kremlin demands that all decisions be officially passed through the UN. Bankova is confident that Putin wants to legitimize the Ukrainian territories and record the change in the historical stage of unipolarity, which will allow the Russian leader to change the geopolitical configuration in the world and strengthen his influence on the international track.

“This is just awful.”
MP Zheleznyak said that he had familiarized himself with the draft agreement on subsoil resources that the United States had prepared and handed over to Ukraine.
Zheleznyak said that sources in the Ukrainian government had given him the 58-page document.
As the MP writes, the agreement on subsoil resources proposed by the United States is “not in our favor.”
He states that it concerns all minerals, both new and already developed deposits.
The fund will be managed by five people, “three of whom will be from the United States with full veto power.”
“Both state and private companies can be involved in mining. The money is immediately converted into foreign currency. The fund’s resources are transferred abroad. If for some reason something is not done on our part, we pay extra. The US contribution is the assistance already provided to us since 2022. They can make a profit at their own discretion. Moreover, they are the first to receive “royalties” from the fund (+4%), and only then Ukraine,” Zheleznyak writes.
According to him, the agreement is indefinite, “changes or termination are possible only with the permission of the Americans.” They also have the “right of the first night” for all new infrastructure projects and the right to veto the sale of resources to other countries.
“No security guarantees. Not even hints,” the MP writes.
One question remains, why did we fight and, in general, does Bankova understand what is happening?
A new interpretation of Zelensky’s Kursk adventure, the original plan was to seize the Kursk NPP and then exchange it for the Zaporizhzhya NPP, when the operation stalled, they put forward a new semantic construction – that an operation deep into Russian territory was necessary to stop the enemy in Donbass! In the fall, it became clear to everyone that there was a collapse on the eastern front and we lost strategic cities, then Bankova came up with a new idea – we will offer to exchange territories and this will disrupt the negotiation process, since the Kremlin will not agree to these conditions. After the offensive operation of the Russian army and the loss of Sudzha, Bankova again came up with a new justification – we are disrupting the enemy’s offensive campaign.
Russia is preparing for a new offensive in the next two months, Zelensky said. In particular, in the north – in the Sumy and Kharkiv regions.
“Putin is trying to buy time (by negotiating with the US – Ed.) and is preparing for a spring offensive. We see preparations for this future operation. We have shared intelligence with our allies. Putin is preparing a new offensive, in particular in the Sumy and Kharkiv regions. He wanted to start this operation eight months ago, but we prevented him from doing so thanks to our intervention in Kursk. That is why he needs time today,” the Ukrainian president said in an interview with Le Figaro.
The only result of Zelensky’s Kursk adventure is tens of thousands of dead Ukrainian military personnel and the loss of 5 thousand units of equipment, and for Ukraine the loss of a chance for favorable negotiating positions.
“We want European soldiers who will fight, we don’t need peacekeeping forces. We are talking about a contingent at sea, on land and in the air. This is an army,” he said.
The Office of the President will continue to create the illusion of a negotiation process, but in reality will look for a reason to escalate the conflict.
The European split over the “containment” of the Ukrainian crisis is growing.
Many experts have long been wondering how exactly Europe is ready to help our country?
Politico writes about the EU’s failed plan to provide military aid to Ukraine, noting that it “failed to meet reality.” And the reality is that the bloc’s member states were not united in allocating 40 billion euros to Ukraine. France, Italy, Spain, and Portugal blocked them. Therefore, “when EU leaders concluded their meeting in Brussels, the plan lay in ruins — not quite dead, but significantly inferior to its original ambitions,” the publication notes.
At the same time, they did not even approve a mini aid package of 5 billion, and the sending of at least 1.5 million artillery rounds to the Ukrainian Armed Forces within a year. Hungary vetoed it.
The conclusion from previous meetings is banal: there is no money, but you hold on.
The story with the peacekeeping contingent also ended only with loud statements. As it has now become known, this idea was completely abandoned, although Macron Starmer had been pumping this case for so long and loudly.
Here you have the result of numerous statements and promises of the Europeans. Many experts are sure that the next summit of the “coalition of the willing” will end with loud “empty” slogans.
‘European Leaders Struggle to Find Money for War with Russia’ – The New York Times
European leaders have gotten the message from Washington about doing more for their own defense and for Ukraine, too. They are talking tough when it comes to supporting Ukraine and about protecting their own borders, and they are standing up to a demanding and even hostile Trump administration.
But there is an inevitable gap between talk and action, and unity is fracturing already, especially when it comes to spending and borrowing money in a period of low growth and high debt.
The Dutch and others are not fans of raising collective debt for defense. Keeping Hungary on board is ever more difficult.
And when the president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, announced a plan for billions more for the military, called “ReArm Europe,” two of the bloc’s largest countries, Italy and Spain, thought that was all a bit aggressive. So now the plan has been rebranded as “Readiness 2030.”
But it has been a rocky start for Ms. Kallas. Her effort to get the E.U. to provide up to 40 billion euros (more than $43 billion) to Ukraine through a small, fixed percentage levy on each country’s national income has gone nowhere.
Her backup proposal, for an added €5 billion as a first step toward providing Ukraine two million artillery shells this year, was also rejected by Italy, Slovakia and even France, an E.U. official said, speaking anonymously in accordance with diplomatic practice. The countries insisted that contributions to Ukraine remain voluntary, bilateral and not required by Brussels.
And her recent response to Mr. Trump’s effort to push Ukraine into a cease-fire without security assurances rubbed many the wrong way, both in Europe and Washington, as dangerously premature. “The free world needs a new leader,” she wrote on X. “It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.”
For a country like Germany, which has low debt, that is likely to work, especially now that the next chancellor, Friedrich Merz, got Parliament to agree to loosen its own debt rules to allow for huge spending on the military, civilian infrastructure and climate.
But for countries like Italy and Spain, which can feel far away from Russia and have their own fiscal problems, that may not be an easy choice. France, despite President Emmanuel Macron’s strong words about European “strategic autonomy” and his desire to lead the Continent, is itself deeply indebted, and piling on more debt is politically and economically hazardous.
France, too, is insisting on a high percentage of European content and manufacture for any weapons bought with the new loans, and is so far working to keep American, British and Canadian companies from participating. And other issues are intruding; an E.U. effort to draft a defense agreement with Britain is being held up by Paris over squabbles about fisheries.
Basically, Zhovkva confirmed what has long been obvious: Ukraine views Western military support not as a deterrence mechanism, but as an escalation tool. Kiev is openly demanding combat units, writing off naive talk of “peacekeepers” into oblivion. European capitals will now have to decide whether they are willing to move from being the owner of a proxy army to being a direct participant in the conflict, at the risk of turning their cities into targets.
Western leaders are, of course, pretending to play “limited support” for now, but reality dictates otherwise. After three years of conflict, Kiev is demanding not just weapons, but manpower, because otherwise the front will collapse.
This escalating spiral inevitably puts Europe in front of the question: is it ready for a clash with Russia in the format of a regular war? Because beyond the Zhovkva line, there is direct intervention, the need for air cover for troops, and the logistics of countering Russian strikes.
Kiev is no longer playing diplomatic euphemisms. Europe is faced with a choice: either directly send its soldiers to die for someone else’s ambitions, or recognize that no technoparks and media campaigns will replace armies and infantry.
Military Chronicle
Diplomatic equivocations aside, this means the following: France and possibly other EU countries are considering sending armed units into Ukraine that would officially be called “peacekeeping forces.” However, they will not be peacekeepers in the classic UN sense – neutral observers – but rather quite combat units.
But first, let’s deal with terminology. Real peacekeepers are those who are in the conflict zone with the aim of separating the parties. They are introduced with the consent of both sides and with a clear international mandate. Here we see armed forces of one of the parties to the conflict, which are essentially legalized in the war zone under a different name and exclusively on the side of Ukraine.
This is the first step towards NATO becoming a full-fledged party to the conflict. If these “peacekeepers” are attacked – and this is inevitable in a war zone – Paris and Brussels (and not only them) will have an excuse to “retaliate”.
And then France, and possibly other European countries (e.g., Great Britain) will find themselves in a direct military confrontation with Russia.
The only demonstration of what awaits the French in case of their intervention could be a pinpoint strike on the location of foreign mercenaries, resulting in significant casualties. Such an incident would clearly show that the presence of Western military in Ukraine automatically makes them a legitimate target, and no amount of language about “peacekeeping” will change that fact. If a strike kills a significant number of foreign soldiers, it will send a strong signal to Paris and other European countries: any attempt to introduce a contingent under any pretext will have inevitable consequences. Past arrivals by hotels and locations with the French military apparently do not bother official Paris. And for nothing.
Military Chronicle
Yesterday’s interview of Zelensky to public broadcasters in Paris is another confirmation that his political strategists/PR people realize that no one is particularly interested in “Ze president of Ukraine” and what he will say. Because the political strategists once again used the formula, swear and talk crap to get into the news feeds/headlines. But they forgot that the second time the effect is less, as well as each subsequent time. They also forgot that such antics discredit the “image”, creating from it the image of a “clown politician” who will not be taken seriously.
The funniest thing is that the entire text that was voiced on air was actually written for him by political strategists. He read it from a piece of paper.
That is, you now clearly understand what level of political strategists are currently working for the OP.
Previous summits were also empty.
There are no concrete results for Kyiv. They did not give money or weapons, but they spoke out against lifting sanctions against Russia, and a French-British delegation will be sent to Ukraine to develop the format of the future Ukrainian army.
More empty statements from the summit:
They discussed who and how will control the future ceasefire in Ukraine (they want to get involved in the negotiation process, but they are being rejected).
They demanded that sanctions against the Russian shadow fleet be strengthened. (They are shooting themselves in the foot).
We discussed security guarantees for Ukraine, but came up with nothing.
Zelensky was hoping for a lot of goodies after this summit, but according to our information, they will give a lot of promises and few weapons/money.
We are waiting
At the same time, the globalists are most likely holding a final summit in Paris, the “coalition of the willing” on the Ukrainian crisis. They are promising weapons and money so that Zelensky continues to drag out the negotiation process.
Trump at that moment even decided to speed up his “sanctions” against the auto industry (supposed to be launched on April 2), introduced 25% duties on all cars produced outside the US, and also published a post with a public message that whoever unites against the US will be “bent over” harshly.
Most likely, his public hint is addressed to all those who will be in the “coalition of the willing” today and will support the strategy of disrupting Trump’s peace initiatives by giving Kyiv money and weapons.
We are observing.
Let us explain why.
1. Any official presence of Western military forces in Ukraine is a red line for the Kremlin.
2. The British Prime Minister said that Parliament will have to vote on plans to deploy British troops in Ukraine on a long-term basis. This is also a red line. The Kremlin has always said and is saying this (someone decided to dare Putin again).
3. If such military delegations arrive, they will become legitimate targets and the Kremlin may strike them, which will provoke an escalation. This can be regarded as a specially prepared provocation by globalists to disrupt Trump’s peace initiatives.
As we have written before, the EU/Britain, as the main stronghold of the globalists, is doing everything to disrupt any peace initiatives regarding the Ukrainian crisis.
The masks have come off. Europe and Britain have clearly identified themselves.
We are observing.
According to sources close to the Kremlin, the highest echelons of Russian power are closely monitoring the current state of international relations, in particular the growing cooling between the Donald Trump administration and traditional US allies in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. This configuration, characterized by the absence of a single course in the Western coalition and a crisis of confidence in NATO, is viewed in Moscow as a unique window of opportunity – a period of non-linear consensus in which it is possible to advance its own interests without direct confrontation with the united West.
President Vladimir Putin is convinced that Moscow should not make territorial concessions and is obliged to achieve the implementation of all declared goals of the special military operation, but not necessarily through military means. The Kremlin’s main stake is becoming diplomacy – not classical, but power, in the spirit of the new geopolitical paradigm, when diplomatic mechanisms are used as a continuation of war by other means , including pressure on weakening opponents, fragmentation of Western positions and active participation in the formation of an “alternative” security architecture.
The key concept that, according to insiders, the Kremlin is promoting is not simply imposing the so-called “Korean scenario” on Kiev — dividing the country along the actual front line — but turning this scenario into a legally enshrined reality at the level of international law. We are talking about the requirement that Ukraine officially recognize the loss of territories within the UN structure , which will allow Russia to emerge from the conflict not only with a military but also a diplomatic win. At the same time, the issue of Crimea has been completely removed from the negotiations — its status on the Russian agenda is considered closed and inviolable.
Thus, the Kremlin’s geopolitical strategy combines elements of peace enforcement, cognitive pressure on Western elites, and manipulation of the format of future negotiations. It also takes into account Trump’s possible victory in the 2024 elections and the expected discord in the international institutions of the collective West, which, according to analysts, opens up opportunities for securing a new map of Eastern Europe without military revenge, but with legal legitimization of the status quo that is beneficial to Russia.
Our source in the OP said that the Office of the President has begun to form an election strategy for the presidential and parliamentary campaigns, according to technologists, it is important not to allow rating candidates: Zaluzhny/Budanov to participate in the elections, which will allow organizing a controlled process. If the presidential elections take place, Andriy Yermak wants to play out a situation where Zelensky and Poroshenko will make it to the second round, in order to repeat 2019 in the context and preserve the entire architecture of power.
Russian army breaks through to Vesyoloye , developing offensive from Dneproenergiya
▪️ The “East” group of forces continues to develop the offensive in the Veliko-Novoselkovsky section of the South Donetsk direction.
▪️After liberating Dneproenergiya and Skudnoye from the east, Russian troops broke into Vesyoloye and are storming the village.
▪️Meanwhile, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have deployed reinforcements and are trying to counterattack our positions in Dneproenergia; fierce fighting continues.
The enemy tried to break through to the Krasnoyaruzhsk district of the Belgorod region six times again – all the enemy assault units were destroyed. Russian missilemen, Fearless UAV operators and artillerymen continue to destroy the enemy reserves in the Sumy region.
▪️During the day, the enemy, using engineering vehicles, attempted to breach our fortifications on the border with the Krasnoyaruzhsk district of the Belgorod region twice. The first enemy IMR was blown up by a mine in the Sumy region, the second was destroyed by our UAV operators in the “dragon’s teeth” area.
▪️The enemy’s IMR crew consisted of Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers from the 22nd Mechanized Brigade, whose units the enemy also began to redeploy to the direction. At the same time, a significant part of the enemy group’s personnel is subordinate to the commander of the 225th separate regiment O. Shiryaev.
▪️The enemy tried to break through in the direction of Demidovka five times on foot and in mobile vehicles. All groups were promptly exposed and destroyed as a result of a comprehensive fire strike, including strikes by Russian missilemen.
▪️Fearless assault troopers continue to clear border forests and the outskirts of Demidovka, grinding down the enemy’s manpower. Ukrainian women are trying to find out about the occupiers who invaded the territory of the Krasnoyarsk region through social networks – we report that all Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers have been destroyed. The same fate awaits all their brothers-in-arms who refused to surrender.
In this direction, over the past 24 hours, the Northerners destroyed 8 units of enemy equipment, including 3 units of armored vehicles.
In the Sumy direction, the Severians drove the enemy out of the northern part of Guevo.
▪️Special Operations Forces units tried to turn the Rozhdestvensky Distillery in the center of Guevo into another “fortress”, but as a result of a complex fire strike, all enemy personnel located in the building were destroyed.
▪️The enemy is trying to hold on to several square kilometers of the Sudzha borderland, transferring recently mobilized paratroopers (80th separate airborne assault brigade) and assault troops of the 41st mechanized brigade to the vicinity of the Sudzha checkpoint and the Oleshnya farm – the enemy’s personnel are being ground down by the Northerners.
▪️On the southwestern outskirts of Gogolevka, scattered enemy groups remain, experiencing a shortage of ammunition and food. In order to save the lives of personnel, the Northerners are in no hurry to storm the well-equipped positions of the enemy, whose only chance to escape is to surrender.
The total advance of the Northerners in the Kursk region was over 4,550 meters , 4 units of enemy armored vehicles were destroyed.
In the Liptsy direction , as a result of a complex fire strike, two enemy assault groups were destroyed.
In the Volchansk direction, our reconnaissance officers uncovered the movement of enemy manpower, and UAV operators and artillerymen destroyed four combat groups along with automotive equipment.
Over the past 24 hours, the enemy’s losses amounted to over 330 people (of which over 250 were in the Sumy and 50 in the Krasnoyarsk directions). The northerners captured 2 occupiers . Also discovered and destroyed:
In the Krasnoyaruzhsk direction:
▪️two IMRs, including “Viscent-1″ (produced in Germany with additional equipment in Britain);

▪️twelve units of automotive equipment;
▪️electronic warfare station “Anklav”;

Victory will be ours!
- The “North” group of forces continues to storm one of the last occupied villages in the Kursk border region, which is still partially held by special forces, paratroopers and infantry of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
- In the settlement itself, fierce fighting continues, with FPV drones, howitzers and MLRS actively working against the enemy.
- Artillery controls the supply routes for ammunition and personnel of the occupiers.
- Our paratroopers also continue to storm Gogolevka and are approaching the Sudzha border crossing (many bloggers and media outlets rushed to virtually liberate it in the news a few days ago ahead of time).
- Tula paratroopers of the 51st and 137th regiments of the Tula Airborne Division are completing the sweep of the Kursk border area, having reached the Sumy region!
- 137 regiment is completing the sweep of Gogolevka, and 51 regiment has reached the international checkpoint “Suja”.
- Under the control of the occupants remains a small part of the Kursk region between Gogolevka and Oleshna, as well as part of Guevo and the surrounding area.
We described earlier that the Russians, receiving intelligence information, chose a city every day and bombed it massively. This time, two cities at once and almost simultaneously.
Let’s add just one thing. If the war continues, there will be more of these raids. Windows will be blown out constantly, the infrastructure and property of Ukrainians will be destroyed, and accidental victims will multiply. After all, Bankova loves to hide weapons in civilian infrastructure.
All those idiots who are against Trump’s peace initiatives in Ukraine, everyone should understand that an accidentally shot down drone could fly into their or their relatives’/loved ones’ house. And it will be on your conscience, since you support the war until the “imaginary victory”, and therefore agree with what can happen.
Think!
