    If I was Zelensky, I’d probably distrust any US intelligence going forward anyway. Cross-validate US intelligence against that of European intelligence while tracking Russian equipment movement during the ceasefire, ready to unleash a simultaneous strike against everything within reach the moment Russia breaches the agreement.

    The US will “immediately lift the pause on intelligence sharing and resume security assistance to Ukraine,” it says.

    The only thing that matters. Great news!

      Have you seen the “leadership” here in the US? I’d say that’s pretty suspicious news if anything, and would consider it dangerous and traitorous.

        I mean, it’s definitely certainly 100% true that when Russia breaks the ceasefire it will be Zelenskyy’s fault, personally, so the US will have no choice.

        It’s true. Agent Orange and Couchfucker told me so.

    How does this help Russia? That’s the only question to ask about US agreements at this point.

        This. My guess is they will use about 20 days of it to regroup and bring in new meat and materials. Then they will start probing Ukrainian lines with little skirmishes in the hopes Ukraine shoots back. When they shoot back Moscow will cry out “They broke the ceasefire!” And the war is back on the menu boys. The traitors in Washington will stop giving the out-of-date intel they will be giving during the ceasefire and cry about how Ukraine can’t be trusted because it broke the ceasefire.

        It doesn’t take a John “Hannibal” Smith to suss out this one.

        This is true, but currently that is also much needed for the Ukrainian forces as well. Time is needed to consolidate after the withdrawal from Kursk and to get more European integration up and running.

      It sets up Russia for accusing Ukraine of breaking the cease fire, allowing Trump to end all sanctions on Russia, sanction Ukraine, end all support to Ukraine, and possibly aid Russia in their “counter-offensive.”

      It also allows Russia time and security to safely move their troops to more strategic locations instead of being bogged down in bad positions.

        Not quite, take a few days to make vital troop movements and then use a false flag to break the ceasefire while giving Trump coverage to be outraged that Ukraine would dare make such an obviously not them act of aggression to breech the ceasefire.

        These people are dumb and uncreative and we’ll see exactly the same tactics used against Gaza - overt aggression from the aggressor while they claim they’re just responding to threats.

    Facepalm. The main problem is not in Kyiv. Not even in Washington. It is in Moskow.

    All part of Putin’s plan.

    There will be some terms that Russia wants “at the last minute” that Trump will insist on otherwise he’ll pull the rug again even worse.

    No need for a false flag operation, though that could be a nice next play for the aggressors. Heck that could even be an excuse for not only the US dropping support for Ukraine but completely switching sides and providing support for Russia!

    I really hope Europe pulls its finger out, as they have been promising. US will be a bad partner for the next four years. And then again when Trump jr. runs next.

    I hate that Ukraine lost so much and that Russia will get away with this, but looking at it another way, Ukraine held on, stopped Russia from taking their whole country, and forced a ceasefire. That’s amazing and few thought it possible just a few years ago.

      Russia will not stop there, and the US provide absolutely no guarantee against that.

    Will Russia actually accept a ceasefire? Cuz I really think they’ll break it in record times if they even accept it

    The US force Ukraine to stop fighting, prey upon their riches, and provides absoljtely NO security. So, if Russia wants to attack again in 2 weeks, 2 monthes, 2 years, Ukraine is on its own. Weird way to “end a war”.

      i dont think its really positive because its likely used to harm ukraine. Like Russia could simply break it or Trump (& Musk?) could use that as an argument to stop support or something

      Maybe it is indeed positive, but its to early to tell
