Russia isn't willing to let Ukraine stabilize the fronts after Kursk and mobilize more people so they can go on the offensive later.

Those that thought they would agree to this can get in line and look surprised.

I suppose that Donny is surprised. No body else is.

I imagine this is exactly the outcome the US was hoping for actually. Russia didn't outright reject the idea of stopping hostilities, and they simply gave a list of terms that would be a precondition. Now the US will tell their puppet regime in Ukraine to accept these terms.

Too true. Should have read the article but the WSJ is on the nose. Others had a better take.
