Topic 2077
Marco Rubio told the US Senate in plain language that America is not an impartial mediator in the Ukraine conflict and has clearly taken a side, delivering weapons and sanctions against Russia while offering to broker talks, a statement Alex Christoforou on The Duran breaks down alongside Zelensky's open letter to Putin, which reads less like a peace proposal and more like a demand for Russian capitulation timed to coincide with the St Petersburg Economic Forum, the House Ukraine aid vote, and a coordinated Wall Street Journal hit piece on the Russian elite. From Lavrov's bombshell claim that Anchorage was a US proposal Russia accepted and was then abandoned, to the real reason Germany is not getting Tomahawk missiles, is the collective West running out of road on its strategy to bury the Anchorage agreement and drag the United States back into the conflict?
