European leaders including from Germany, France and Britain will join Volodymyr Zelenskiy to meet Donald Trump in Washington, they said on Sunday, seeking to shore up his position as the U.S. president presses Ukraine to accept a quick peace deal.

Trump is leaning on Zelenskiy to strike an agreement after he met Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin in Alaska, and on Sunday promised “big progress on Russia” in a social media post without specifying what this might be.

At face value, some of Putin’s demands would be hugely difficult for Ukraine to accept, setting the stage for potentially fraught talks about ending Europe’s deadliest war in 80 years, which has dragged on for 3-1/2 years and killed or wounded more than 1 million people.

    Its not a deal when an imperialist psycho wants your entire country and everyone in it dead because the believe the Russia empire needs to be ressurected.

    Any peace deal will just be broke in 6 months to a year. There is no deal except get the fuck out of Ukraine you Russian imperialist piece of shit.

    Smart move by Zelenskyy to avoid being ganged up on like the last time by Trump and his sound-byte seeking stooges.
