Zelenskyy CHECKMATES Trump in Rome with POWER MOVE

Ukraine's President Zalinski is. commanding respect and taking the. initiative in. negotiations with the United States. Really taking the upper hand and Donald. Trump looking like the weak one now in. the negotiation. So uh during the. funeral of Pope Francis in Rome, Zalinski was surrounded by his friends, his strong allies. You had French. President Emanuel Mcronone. You had uh. the United Kingdom uh Prime Minister.

Kier Starmer. Um you had the European. Union uh Commission President uh. Vanderlayan uh and others uh surrounding. Zalinski and standing strong with. Zinsky. I mean literally right here you. have Mcronone and Kier Starmer um with. Zalinsky as they were speaking to Donald. Trump. I mean Trump looked adult. He. looked fatigued. Um, he was wearing a. blue suit at the funeral of Pope. Francis. The only person not wearing a.

black suit and a long black tie, which. was uh the dress code. And one of the. ways Zalinski has been outmaneuvering. Donald Trump, standing with his allies. in Europe, the real coalition of the. willing, making it clear that there are. bright lines that Ukraine will not cross. in any negotiations. Ukraine making it. clear that they're the ones who agree to. an unconditional ceasefire. And it's. Vladimir Putin who refuses to do an. unconditional ceasefire. Ukraine also.

making it very clear they're not going. to give up Crimea. They're not going to. give up territories that are Ukrainian. territories that were either annexed or. stolen by Russia in an unlawful. invasion. So, the United States trying. to jam under Trump trying to jam down. Zalinsk's throat a mineral deal. You. must give up Crimea. You can never join. NATO. And Zalinski is saying, "No, we.

want peace. We're agreeable to an. unconditional ceasefire unlike Putin. Um, but we and our European allies have. our own terms and we're standing on. business. We're standing strong." So. that's what was happening in Rome over. the weekend. And this followed that. meeting on Friday between Donald Trump's. special envoy to Russia, Steve Witkov. and Vladimir Putin. And it also followed. while that meeting was taking place um.

there was also uh the general the. Russian general uh who's who was. assassinated as his car blew up in. Moscow as well. So there was that. development that happened too. So uh. that was all going on on Friday. Now. Steve Witoff, Donald Trump's special. envoy uh to Russia. He met with Putin. for approximately. uh 3 hours. It was the fourth visit. There was another visit a few weeks back. where he put his hand on his heart and.

looked like he was like pledging. allegiance to Putin. In this meeting. with Putin, you can see how uh. inexperienced and amateur-ish Steve. Witoff is. To be clear, Steve Whitoff is. not a diplomat. He's like a New York. real estate guy who just like knew. Donald Trump. Um, and so he shows up to. this uh this fourth meeting with Putin. um without an interpreter, without. anybody from the United States uh.

embassy, without anybody. Just shows up. alone. And then when he gets there, he. looks at an interpreter provided by. Putin. He's like, "Are you from the. embassy? are you my interpreter? This is. unheard of. You do not show up alone to. meet with Putin in a negotiation when. Putin's team is there and then wonder. who the interpreter is who's even been. um provided there by Putin. It's that's. just not the way you conduct business. And Putin was doing that to mock and.

humiliate the United States when that. was taking place. Let me just show you. what was going on with Witoff on Friday. when he went when he met with Putin. And. I think it's important to talk about. that in the context of what went down. over this weekend. Here, watch this. clip. How are you, Mr.

President? From the end. Okay. So then before that meeting. between Witoff and Putin in that clip. that I just showed you, um he was. strolling alongside a Russian sovereign. wealth fund CEO, Carill Demetriv going. around uh going around Moscow and like.

looking at shops and buildings because. one of the things I think Putin is. trying to say is we're going to build a. Trump Tower. We're going to build all of. this. Let me show you the scene as Wit. Cop, Trump's special envoy, was. strolling outside of Moscow. This was. incredibly embarrassing moment right. here. Here, play this clip right here.

So that's what went down on Friday. Um, and then you had on Friday as well the. situation over here where Major General. Yarcelav Masich, Deputy Chief of Main. Operations, Directorate of Russians, General Staff, um, he was assassinated. when his car exploded. Now on Friday, that happened on Friday, Donald Trump.

had posted the following. Ukraine headed. by Zalinsky has not signed the final. papers on the very important rare earth. deal with the United States. It is at. least 3 weeks late. Hopefully, it will. be signed immediately. And Trump puts. that in caps. Work on the overall peace. deal between Russia and Ukraine is going. smoothly. Success seems to be in the. future. Then you have that Witito. meeting. Trump touches down in Rome. Trump writes, "Just landed in Rome. A. good day in talks and meetings with. Russia and Ukraine. They are very close.

to a deal." and the two sides should now. meet at the very high levels to quote. finish it off. Most of the major points. are agreed to stop the bloodshed now. We. will be wherever is necessary to help. facilitate the end to this cruel and. senseless war. And then following Trump. meeting with Zalinski and again Zalinsky. had Mcronone and Starmer and Vanderlane. and others backing him up there, others. in the European Union. Then Trump posted. after he left uh uh the funeral for Pope.

Francis, Trump wrote, "No matter what. deal I make with respect to Russia. Ukraine, no matter how good it is, even. if it's the greatest deal ever, the. failing New York Times will say what a. bad deal it is." Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. He goes, "With all that being said, there was no reason for Putin to be. shooting missiles into civilian civilian. areas, cities, and towns over the last. few days. It makes me think that maybe. he doesn't want to stop the war. He's. just tapping me along and has to be. dealt with differently through banking.

or secondary sanctions. Too many people. are dying. And you have to credit. President Zalinsky of Ukraine for um. confronting Donald Trump appropriately. uh in at the funeral of Pope Francis and. conveying very strongly the points that. needed to um be conveyed right there. And uh here's here's basically the. counter proposal that Zalinski um and. Europe uh basically you know uh.

responded with. Reuters published a full. Ukraine Europe peace counter proposal to. the US from talks in London. There are. four main parts. Ceasefire security. guarantees for Ukraine territory and. economic ceasefire. Commit to a full and. unconditional ceasefire in the sky on. land and at sea. Both sides immediately. entered into negotiations with the US. and European countries. Ceasefire. monitoring led by the US and supported. by third countries. Russia must. unconditionally return all deported.

Ukrainian children. Exchange prisoners. of war for all. Release civilian. prisoners. Security guarantees for. Ukraine. Ukraine. Ukraine receives. security guarantees. Article five like. agreement including from the US. But. there is no consensus among allies on. NATO membership. No restrictions on. Ukrainian defense forces. The guarantor. states will be European and willing. non-European countries. No restrictions. on the presence, weapons and operations. of friendly foreign forces on the.

territory of Ukraine. Ukraine pursues uh. becoming part of the EU. Territorial. issues will be resolved after a full. unconditional ceasefire. Territorial. negotiations start from the basis of the. control line. Ukraine regains control of. its nuclear power plant and its dam with. US involvement. Ukraine enjoys. unhindered passages to the river and the. control of the other m major location. The US and Ukraine implement an economic. cooperation minerals agreement. Ukraine.

will be fully reconstructed and. compensated financially through Russian. sovereign assets. US sanctions sanctions. on Russia since 2014 may be gradually. eased after achieving a sustainable. peace and resumption if the peace will. be breached. That was from Reuters who. got their hands on it. So, it's. brilliant. You've got Zalinski from this. position of power with Europe saying, "No, Donald, here are the terms that. anybody who's actually interested in a. peace should want." Um, Zalinsky posted.

the following yesterday. Uh after. uh uh Pope Francis's funeral today in. Rome, I met with the president of the. Council of Ministers of Italy, Georgia. Maloney. We discussed the importance of. security guarantees for Ukraine and. efforts to restore peace and protect. lives. 46 days ago, Ukraine agreed to a. full and unconditional ceasefire. And. for 46 days, Russia has continued to. kill our people. Therefore, special. attention was paid to the importance of.

applying pressure on Russia. I. appreciate Georgia Maloney's clear and. principled stance. I also informed her. about the constructive meetings held by. the Ukrainian delegation with. representatives of the United States, France, the United Kingdom, and Germany. in Paris and London. There is a shared. position and unconditional ceasefire. must be the first step towards achieving. sustainable peace in Ukraine. He then. posted this yesterday. During my meeting. with Emanuel Mcronone, president of. France, we discussed the path toward a. full and unconditional ceasefire and the.

need to apply pressure on Russia and. establish it. I outlined the consequence. of the Russian attacks that we've been. talking about in Sunumi and Kev and. other places to protect the lives of. Ukrainians. There is a critical need to. strengthen our air defense. We are. counting on the support of our partners. I thank Emmanuel for his steadfast. support of Ukraine and for all the. efforts that help our people endure and. bring peace closer as it relates to. Prime Minister of United Kingdom K. Starmer. Uh Zillinsky writes, "The steps.

necessary to establish a full and. unconditional ceasefire and to develop. further security guarantees were the. main topics of our discussion. We. summarized the outcomes of the meetings. between representatives of Ukraine, US, France, UK, Germany, and Paris, and. London. We will continue to work within. the coalition of the willing. The. unconditional ceasefire must be achieved. in the air, at sea, and on land, and. must become the first step toward. establishing a just peace with reliable. security guarantees. Only strong.

guarantees can ensure lasting peace and. protect people's lives. And then he met. with uh Donald Trump right there which. we talked about uh yesterday as well. And then Donald Trump made that post. after that uh meeting uh transpired and. uh took place. Um, one of the things. that's also worth uh noting as well um. is uh you know Donald Trump had uh. previously given this time interview. with Time magazine where Trump claimed.

that bringing peace to Ukraine in 24. hours was just a joke. He said it was. justest. That's what he told Time. magazine that nobody took him seriously. except fake news took him seriously. which is kind of a ridiculous thing to. say. We should all be reminded what. Donald Trump's promises were because. their promise is broken. This is what. Donald Trump was saying during the. campaign. Let's play this clip right. here. Let's play it. End the war in. Ukraine in 24 hours. Yes, I can. How. would you do that? Uh, I know Zillinsky.

very well. I I'll end that war between. those two countries in 24 hours. It. won't even take that long. I will get. the war ended. I'll stop all of those. lives from being wasted and lost and. there'll be no more bombing of Ukraine. So that's where things stand right now. Uh the Kev Independent is also reporting. that uh in terms of what's going on on. the front line of the war. While Russia.

has made some marginal gains here and. there, the gains that Russia has been. making is not at a level of significance. where you know Ukraine fears that it's. in a position of significant weakness. where it has to negotiate some sort of. surrender. Ukraine feels strong about. its position. Russia has put all these. resources into this latest offensive and. by and large they're bogged down again. with certain skirmishes here and there. that uh you know slight gains here and.

there but nothing that as of right now. Ukraine European intelligence are fairly. confident that this can be you know. dealt with and eventually pushed back. and that they feel confident in their. position. But when you take a look at. this all, I think it shows the strength. of Zalinsk's negotiating position. How. he managed to handle everything, I. think, really intelligently uh in uh. Rome, having his allies by his side, taking command, taking the initiative in.

these negotiations. You tell me what you. think, but I think that gives you a fair. summary of where of where we are now. No. deal Donald still. I call them, you. know, no deal Donald, no trade deals, no. peace deal, 000. Um, but Zalinski and. Europeans, you know, coming together to. negotiate strongly and powerfully. Hit. subscribe.
