The U.S. expects Ukraine’s response Wednesday to a peace framework that includes U.S. recognition of Crimea as part of Russia and unofficial recognition of Russian control of nearly all areas occupied since the 2022 invasion, sources with direct knowledge of the proposal tell Axios.
Why it matters: The one-page document the U.S. presented Ukrainian officials in Paris last week describes this as Trump’s “final offer.” The White House insists it’s ready to walk away if the parties don’t make a deal soon.
I hope to someday justice prevails and Trump is tried for treason and has similar final offer of electric chair or firing squad. I also hope that the woman he raped when she was a 13 year old child gets to carry out the order
From the article:
“De jure” U.S. recognition of Russian control in Crimea.
That would contravene the Budapest memorandum, in which other signatories (including the US) promise to “Respect the signatory’s independence and sovereignty in the existing borders”. Most likely, the president of Ukraine cannot simply sign this, but is required by constitution to hold a referendum. Which is not possible in war time. So to my understnading, this point sabotages the rest entirely. Ukraine cannot sign and ratify this, and consequently won’t.
“De-facto recognition” of the Russia’s occupation of nearly all of Luhansk oblast and the occupied portions of Donetsk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia.
That would be merely untenable for Ukraine.
The lifting of sanctions imposed since 2014. / Enhanced economic cooperation with the U.S., particularly in the energy and industrial sectors.
That would be active cooperation with the agressor.
I’m not sure if my crystal ball is cheap glass or a real palantir, but I see this proposal in the paper bin. I see the US overstepping promises made in better times. As a consequence, I also see certain European countries give zero damns about which weapons systems contain US components, and give those systems to Ukraine while they re-arm themselves with locally made items.
Ain’t happening. Not supporting Russia or Israel. Cannot take peoples land because u just want to. Fk them.
Cannot take peoples land because u just want to.
Wait till he finds out that’s how every sovereign nation came to be…
Under the spineless fickle Trump in 2018…
"Russia, through its 2014 invasion of Ukraine and its attempted annexation of Crimea, sought to undermine a bedrock international principle shared by democratic states: that no country can change the borders of another by force. The states of the world, including Russia, agreed to this principle in the United Nations Charter, pledging to refrain from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state. This fundamental principle — which was reaffirmed in the Helsinki Final Act — constitutes one of the foundations upon which our shared security and safety rests.
As we did in the Welles Declaration in 1940, the United States reaffirms as policy its refusal to recognize the Kremlin’s claims of sovereignty over territory seized by force in contravention of international law. In concert with allies, partners, and the international community, the United States rejects Russia’s attempted annexation of Crimea and pledges to maintain this policy until Ukraine’s territorial integrity is restored.
The United States calls on Russia to respect the principles to which it has long claimed to adhere and to end its occupation of Crimea. As democratic states seek to build a free, just, and prosperous world, we must uphold our commitment to the international principle of sovereign equality and respect the territorial integrity of other states. Through its actions, Russia has acted in a manner unworthy of a great nation and has chosen to isolate itself from the international community.

Fuck off Krasnov.
Trumps fuckhead logic is nothing but selfish trash
Give them back Crimea, fuck back off to Russia and maybe we can talk about peace
Ukraine could offer to china, rare earth mining rights.
Lmao Trump is 100% Putins bitch. I wonder what Putin actually has over him cause Trump could get away with anything right? Why is he such a bitch then?
My guess is that Trump world view benefits with more dictators in power and justifies his own dictatorship goals but sucking this hard?
I think putler has videos.
I think it’ll either be of Fatboy pissing on hookers, or fucking children. Or both.
It’s probably both, and other things too, but one of these two is a definite.It’s 2025, videos don’t matter anymore, definitely not to Trump.
First off we’ve had deepfakes for years so he could just claim that. Secondly, and this is more important, Trump’s base wouldn’t care anyway. They’d start off denying the whole thing, and then if it’s proven to be real, they’d just say it’s not that big of a deal because dems do it more and it’s worse, until finally they’ll say it’s actually a good thing, but only when Trump does it.
Honestly, I think Putin might actually be appeasing to Trump’s ego. Seems like a much easier way to control him than holding something over him tbh. Remember, for Putin, total control of Trump forever isn’t necessary. Even if he jumps off Putin’s dick right now, he’s already achieved so much for Putin that it’ll have been worth it for him.
but doesn’t russian media constantly make fun of trump?
Russian talking heads? Sure. They always make fun of the west and western leaders. But does Trump speak Russian?
Anyway, while Russian media is all more or less under Putin’s control, that doesn’t mean they’re always necessarily saying the same things he’s saying. If Trump’s having 90 minutes phone calls with Putin, I’m fairly sure he’s not getting ridiculed. Likely Putin talks to him like an equal - to his face, anyway. And being seen as an equal by your hero can pretty much blind you with emotions.
I think pedo shit is the only one he couldn’t get away with so this definitely makes sense. Though, now he could say it’s fake and AI and maybe even get by.
Well you remember how rabidly drumpf fellated that poor microphone that one time? Where do you think he learned that? 😆
Being able to get away with anything is vastly different than being able to handle criticism and embarrassment associated with (yet another) scandal, especially something of a more personal nature that draws his “character” into question among his base.
Basically DJT is the biggest snowflake there is, he would rather incite global conflict than let the world know he has smol pp
It’s official, USA is part of the problem, not part of the sollution.
trump and the republiQans are the problem.
If the so-called left and the slack-ass MFs who refused to or didn’t vote could have gotten their goddamned shit together we could have resolved this - and every other fucking thing under the sun - better.
dont fall for the americans telling you about a ratchet.there isnt one. they are all responsible.
New chapter for Art of the Deal just dropped. Peace in our Time, ghostwritten by Neville Chamberlain.
Get fucked Trump
America and Trump can go fuck themselves. It’s not peace if Ukraine has to surrender the country to the aggressor! And if that’s not enough, America wants to rip everything of value away from Ukraine too.
