NATO Chief Mark Rutte is telling media outlets the following about the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, and it's potential settlement. Almost EVERYTHING he says is already flatly rejected by Russia!
The "peace" plan involves U.S. / NATO troops and air defense missiles in Ukraine, combined with attempts to impugn Russia for Ukraine / US / NATO / UK attacks, are further evidence that the "peace" talks are a sham. Russia knows this.
"NATO seeks to give Kiev more air defense missiles beyond those from US.
The alliance's secretary general admitted that a third of NATO countries were not participating in the PURL program yet."
"The plan was discussed on several occasions in December and January between Ukrainian, European and American officials and would involve a multi-tiered response to any breaches of an agreed armistice by Russia, the reports say.
Envoys from Kyiv, Moscow and Washington will meet in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday and Thursday for talks aimed at ending the war, the Financial Times of London reports.
As per the proposal, any Russian breach of a ceasefire would prompt a response within 24 hours, starting with a diplomatic warning and, if necessary, action by Ukrainian army to halt the infraction, the newspaper said.
If hostilities continued beyond that, the proposal would move to a second phase of intervention using forces from the so-called coalition of the willing, which includes many EU members and the UK, Norway, Iceland and Turkey, the report said.
The report added that in the case of an expanded attack, a coordinated response by a Western-backed force, incorporating the U.S. military would be triggered 72 hours after the initial breach."
Hal Turner Analysis and Commentary/Opinion
So basically, this is Ukraine joining NATO without actually joining NATO; foreign troops on Ukraine soil, foreign "air defenses" on Ukraine soil. ALL of which Russia has already, and repeatedly rejected.
These terms have all been proposed several times over the past few years. Each item was individually proposed and rejected by Russia. Then several items were proposed again, and rejected, again, by Russia. Now all of them are being proposed jointly -- again . . .
This pattern of behavior leads me to wonder if Mark Rutte and his NATO boys and the Negotiators from Ukraine, are all retarded?
Do they not understand what the word "no" means?
Maybe the Russians should adopt a new approach with the peace negotiations. Maybe Russia should listen intently as retarded Rutte and/or his pals propose these things yet again, only this time, the Russians can respond:
"We have told you several times, over the past several years, that none of these things are acceptable. Yet you propose them again. The proposals are rejected again -- and this is the final time.
If you make any or all of these proposals again, it will be confirmation that TALKING doesn't work with you. At that moment, we are going to stand up, come across the negotiating table, and beat the living shit out of all of you, right here in this room, until you're fucking bloody. Maybe you'll understand what the word "no" means after we beat the shit out of you."
The Russians should then get up and walk out.
Based on the conduct we've been seeing in the Russia-Ukraine negotiations over the past few years, it seems to ME to be useless to continue talking. Neither NATO nor Ukraine seem to understand they're losing.
Maybe Russia should just resign itself to having to take all of Ukraine, and do so with no more surgical approach. Russia should just steamroll over Ukraine, wiping out everything it their path, until the land is purged of these people who are clearly too mind-fucked to be considered humans anymore.
