Kremlin: "Ukraine and US are sabotaging peace-negotiations by refusing to give Russia everything." [View all]

In Moscow’s first public response to Biden’s overture, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters: “The president of the Russian Federation has always been, is and remains open to negotiations in order to ensure our interests.”

Peskov said the US refusal to recognise annexed territory in Ukraine as Russian was hindering a search for ways to end the war. Moscow has previously sought sweeping security guarantees including a reversal of NATO’s eastern enlargement.



Do you know why the german 6th Army under Field-Marshal Paulus failed at Stalingrad?
Why they were shot to smithereens by russian artillery and then starved and frozen to death, under siege in the russian winter?

Because they failed to hold a referendum.

Paulus should have organized a referendum among the citizens of Stalingrad, which would have given the city to the Third Reich and Russia would have had to accept that fact that Stalingrad now and forever belongs to Germany.
