Hopes that Ukraine and Russia's leaders would meet for peace talks in Turkey on Thursday were dashed as the Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin and his White House counterpart Donald Trump opted to skip the trip.

Clearly Zelensky is the one who doesn't want peace. /s

[–] floo@retrolemmy.com 30 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Did he even say “thank you”?

[–] SinningStromgald@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

Apparently not enough to hold actual peace talks. Probably didnt send a Easter card to Trump and Putin as well. Ungrateful son of bitch.

Russia sent the same "token" delegation they sent to talks right after the war started. In case it wasn't already obvious and clear, they aren't negotiating in good faith... They're just stalling.

[–] MummifiedClient5000@feddit.dk 10 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Just stalling or just stalin'?

[–] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

They're not Putin in the effort.

That shows how pathetic they are.

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 7 points 6 days ago

Putin and Trump need time to play grab ass with each other.

[–] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

Ya but they at least say thank you when receiving milltary support. Can Zelenskyy say the same?!

Humanity is a joke if Trump and Putin are given this much control over billions of lives.
