Public sentiment towards Ukraine peace talks is predominantly negative, characterized by frustration with President Zelensky's leadership, strong skepticism about the effectiveness of negotiations with Russia, and a profound commitment to Ukraine's territorial integrity. Many commenters criticize NATO involvement and emphasize the need for military support instead of concessions. There is a prevailing sentiment that current diplomatic efforts are futile, with a significant disdain for Donald Trump's perceived ineffectiveness and subservience to Putin.

Donald Trump

It’s SO obvious that he is doing this so when the war doesn’t end he can blame others.

We tried nothing and we are all out of ideas.

The Alaska sellout show was but a waste of time. The less he is involved the better.

Gives him more time to release the Epstein files.

He just wanted his Nobel Participation Trophy.  He didn't realize he'd actually have to do anything.

rimshot101

Don't worry folks. He is still working on ending the war on Day 1.

asc0614

Absolutely disgusting piece of shit. Completely unqualified as is every single one of his appointees. Fucking shitshow.

"If Putin doesn't agree to a cease fire within 2 weeks, we'll look at sanctions"

3 weeks later

"never mind, we give up"

He didn't want that Nobel Prize anyway.

did I miss it or has someone still not made a Taco Man / Macho Man parody song?

Step down Mr.pedo, you are shit at your job.

Wrong-Ad-8636

He got the soundbytes of all the European leaders kissing his ass, he got the photo ops of him smiling and shaking hands with world leaders, and he got the news talking about him, so he got what he wanted.

This was never about peace.

epicredditdude1

The Shows over folks, Trump got poor ratings and walked off the set.

Big-D-TX

Useless dumb fat fuck. Let the adults talk for a while. 

Educational_Delay351

So the deadlines he gave to Russia were lies. He's so obviously compromised. 

jfrost378

I guess he doesn't want that Nobel Peace Prize after all!

mediocre_remnants

I’ll repeat this ad nauseam. The only way to fight a bully is to slap him in the face so hard that his head will spin. The solution is and always has been the following. NATO declares that the war in Europe is affecting them directly and announces that Russia has 2 weeks of time to retreat from the Ukrainian territories. If not, NATO will push them back. After 2 weeks, NATO will intervene heavily by air first, similarly to what they did in Operation Desert Storm. If this is not enough, they will send troops and push Russia back. This is already war, we can’t hide it. The sooner we stop it, the better it is for everyone.

superbotolo

He should have done that before he rolled out the red carpet for a Russian war criminal. What a disgrace the US has become.

Crozzey

But he told everyone that he would settle that war within a day of being president again. Was he lying? I don’t get it!

PuffyBlueClouds

Yes, of course. Throw it on his massive pile of a lifetime of failures. All he ever has done is lie and bluster. And crime and assault ‘women’ of course.

“I could have ended the war in a week.”

Uh huh, gives up after the first talk.

Traditional_Yak_3360

Hey, at least this means no no-fly-zone and Ukraine can launch those awesome new Flamingo cruise missiles at will.


Maybe with enough of those hitting critical military industry complexes and infrastructure will get Russia asking for the no-fly.

IAmInTheBasement

He realized that this stunt isn't taking the attention away from the Epstein files so he'll move onto something else to try to distract from the fact that he is a pedo.

OhioDude

I have tried nothing and I am all out of ideas!

Craziest part is this is an opportunity to end Putin once and for all for peanuts and of course he is doing everything he can to keep it from happening,

Vanman04

He wants to distract away from the fact that he's a Pedophile in the Epstein files, and he really really really wants a Nobel Peace Prize because he's been seething since Obama got one.  And deep down inside, he knows he'll never get it.

Whackjob-KSP

Hey nobody called him a child rapist for a week so...WORTH IT!

They got the attention away from the Epstein Files successfully.  Mission complete.

'My work here is done'

'But you didn't do anything'

\*Leaves\*

Of course you accomplished nothing Trump, except emboldening Putin and giving him a PR victory by inviting him to US soil. You did everything to pressure Putin to make peace except put any kind of pressure on him at all. Putin knows that Trump's a useless, weak, stupid man who he can manipulate and make a fool of, so why should he give him anything in return?

As long as this imbecile is running the show, the US is compromised. At best they're unreliable and untrustworthy, at worst they're a Russian ally. Ukraine and Europe have to rely on themselves.

Rare_Opportunity2419

He’ll just come out one morning with no tie and be like, “they’re fucking it up…”  this fuckin dope walked out of Israel-Palestine talks and thought he solved it in like 3 hours. He is the smoothest of smooth brains. All he wants is a Nobel peace prize and he’s starting to realize it won’t happen. Time to ramp up the mean. Make fun of his ankles, small hands, his gross fingernails (have you seen these lately? They look like fungus toe nails on his thumbs….fuckin weak low energy). Talk about the Epstein files he’s in and the kids he diddles.  We need to talk about how dumb he is all the time and how he fails at everything. Say he has bad genes.

PeterVanNostrand

Next month, he'll do the same thing again. 

Much-Willingness-309

Didnt trump say that when he's elected he would end the war in a or a week or something?

RogueTacoArt

Removed from consideration for Nobel Peace Prize...  immediately stops caring.

Short-Box-484

Nothing to do now but wait for the peace prize, right Donnie?

enzo_baglioni

thedeeb56

And I am sure he is thinking to himself “my work here is done”.

Irishpanda1971

He's tried nothing and out of ideas. At least he got to show his daddy the picture he drew

Snipe78

Trump has absolutely no fucking idea what he's doing, sources say.

This is like the 5th time he’s stepped back from this

Chigao_Ted

What a fucking embarrassing, pathetic loser.

08TangoDown08

So is he going to start the bigliest sanctions he promised on Russia? Or was just having a quick chat with Putin enough to not do that - Putin clearly just wants peace he said so himself (while bombing schools and hospitals still)

jons1983

Because he is under control by  Putin. He must step back. 

Now release the original unredacted Epstien files.

trucker96961

ElectricZ

Can't bully your way into a noble peace prize if you sit on the sideline.

Thoraxekicksazz

Always a failure. He is the Shart of the Deal...

Zanos-Ixshlae

Because it was all a ruse to not increase sanctions on russia as otherwise threatened 

Putin wins again

What, you mean a single conversation didn't solve the problem? Welp, he tried, back to getting rid of the constitution. 

dao_ofdraw

Someone needs to use cray9ns and very simple language to tell Trump the difference between surrender and making a deal.

PreacherCoach

He’s off to his next failure that he’ll blame on someone else.

pike360

And he could have had this sorted before day one, but couldn't because... Biden. ^^^/s

That's no way to earn yourself a Nobel peace prize.

President pigeon flies in again, shits all over the board and then flies off.

Job well done!

He’s ego can’t handle the loss. Pure and simple.

Classic Trump move — step back now, later say “I tried, but nobody else could do it.” Always setting the stage to blame others.

Emily_Lane_Journal

rochitbaby

Also we won’t forget Epstein diverge attention news it’s coming back. Empeach him for God sake.

Lika3

He’s quick enough on the rest of the world to inflict horrendous tariffs, but no sanctions for his Ruske buds??   Guy deserves a Slip-n-Slide as a reward for his ability to dodge the truth.

Traghorn

Why would anyone ever expect anything other than TACO at this point. 

Ravokion

Annual-Lifeguard-546

crazyhorseeee

He said he'd end the war within 24 hours of assuming the presidency. Then he pushed that back to after he has a call with Putin and Zelenskyy. Well... 6 months later, and no peace deal. Even the formal meeting between Putin and Trump amounted to zero substantive results. Just a lot of praise exchanges, platitudes, and obtuse wishful thinking. 

Donald Trump never takes responsibility for anything. Not even an acknowledgement that he blew his promise out of the water. It's because he refuses to ever see himself as making a mistake or a failure. And thus, he's rife with them.

Minimum_Neck_7911

Are we going to support Ukraine on our own then or??? Like tbh if we support Ukraine alone what say does USA have

HeadEmu3932

Apparently, the authors of the article believe that Ukraine can ignore the results of the Putin-Trump meeting and rely entirely on Europe.

Any-Original-6113

This means absolutely nothing unless the EU is prepared to go it alone on supplying weapons and materials to Ukraine - put up or shut up. Trump/Vance et. al. have ZERO respect for Europe. Maybe its time to tell Trump to shove his tariffs up his arse and go medieval on Russia.

Few_Afternoon_6618

This doesn't seem like it needs to be said. Leaving Uukraine out of talks leaves everything exactly as it is.

Zlifbar

The European dependency on US military is by design.

irosion

Ukraine's European allies can either order 1K IFVs and 400 towed guns or stay in their little corner and reminise about the "good old days" when other countries were taking them seriously.

Prestigious_Egg9554

They can say what they want, as soon as the US tells them to shut their mouths they will. We Europeans should be afraid, it's shown how weak we really are.

haigboardman

I don’t quite understand what is the purpose of this meeting if not to help Ukraine. Why is this meeting actually happening without Ukrainian agreement on terms.

international_swiss

It was a couple weeks a couple weeks ago.

Rude_Asparagus_382

Trump's 2 weeks will be the new Chinas final warning.

Own-Virus3288

DiggingforPoon

“We’ll see what happens. I think in two weeks, we’ll know which way I’m going, because I’m going to go one way or the other, and they’ll learn which way.”

How the fuck do people listen to this shit and be like “there’s an alpha male”?  Fucking wishy washy TACO bitch. He desperately wants to side with Putin but has enough people telling him that would be a horrible decision. So he just takes the pussy way out and keeps kicking the can down the road as far as it will go.

ryan101

&gt; “But I’ll know in two weeks what I’m going to do,” 

The signature "two weeks " TACO move.

KnottShore

And this surprises who?  Putin got what he wanted - lots of praise from Trump. And 2 more weeks of heavy bombing of Ukraine.

i think European leaders realized this would happen which is why they finally seem to be stepping up.
