It seems to me that the quarrel between Elon Musk and Trump has gone too far to be considered just a small quarrel between two famous people in the US. There is information on social networks that Trump ordered the arrest of Musk for violating immigration laws by him and his family and even gave an unofficial order to the secret services not to take him alive. In addition, Trump allegedly wants to nationalize Musk's companies - Tesla and SpaceX - in the shortest possible time. And the Russian authorities have officially confirmed that Musk has asked Russia for political asylum and may become the head of Roscosmos. We will see in the near future what is true and what is not.

The fact that Ukrainian President Zelensky is not a trusted person of the United States is evidenced by the current extreme aggravation of relations between him and Trump due to the fact that Zelensky does not want to sign the predatory draft agreement on rare earth minerals of Ukraine proposed by Trump and consistently defends the interests of Ukraine. Russian President Putin, who readily offered Trump Russia's rare earth resources, can already be called a trusted person of the United States.

The Russian Federation has abruptly changed its political orientation and the United States has suddenly turned from the main enemy in the NATO alliance into an ally, and Putin and Trump began to jointly pressure Ukraine in order to force it to conclude a peace treaty that is disadvantageous to it, which would actually mean its capitulation in the imposed war with Russia. Therefore, the Kremlin's assertion that they are fighting NATO in Ukraine, where the United States has always played a leading role, has suddenly lost its relevance. But Putin will have to continue to change his orientation, since events are developing very quickly and he has fewer and fewer ways out of the critical situation associated with this war.

And why, in your opinion, did Zelensky become a Zionist? Zionism is a Jewish national movement that aims to unite and revive the Jewish people in their historical homeland. Zelensky has Jewish roots, but how is he connected to the Zionist movement? Kremlin ideologists are now looking for any clues to somehow discredit Zelensky, who does not want to "surrender" Ukraine, including spreading a far-fetched version of his illegitimacy as president of Ukraine.

And what is surprising about this, if the former commander-in-chief of Ukraine Zaluzhny has repeatedly outdone the current president Zelensky regarding the support of the people of Ukraine. According to the results of a survey conducted in March of this year, Zaluzhny is trusted by 62% of Ukrainians. Of these, 35% of respondents definitely trust the former commander-in-chief, another 27% answered that they rather trust him.

50.5% of Ukrainians trust Zelensky, and 42.8% do not trust him.

It seems that the interests of Great Britain and the Ukrainian people coincide here.

It is unlikely that Putin is an agent of a foreign state. Many of those who have been in power for a long time (and Putin has been in power for 25 years, and all the country's government bodies are completely subordinate to him) sooner or later begin to suffer from delusions of grandeur. In addition, due to a pathological fear for his life, he does not communicate with the people, surrounded himself with sycophants, as a result, he misperceives the situation, and therefore makes the wrong decisions. In addition, Russia clearly did not count on the stubborn and heroic resistance of the Ukrainian people, and this became a turning point in this war. If Ukraine had wavered in the first months of the attack on it, no one would have come to its aid.

Despite the fact that Trump has now started to play his own game, more than 70 percent of Ukrainians believe that it is necessary to defend their territory even if aid from the United States stops altogether. European countries are ready to continue to support Ukraine, and with such support, Ukraine is capable of finishing off Russia.

Having realized that Ukraine is beyond his reach, Putin can conclude a truce with it and in any case call the results of the war a victory, but it is already dangerous for him to disband his army: the economy is on the verge of collapse and this can cause large-scale riots. Therefore, he can further direct the anger of the military to the Baltic countries, counting on a small victorious war. This is especially dangerous for Lithuania, where Russia can try to seize the Suwalki corridor in order to have access to the Kaliningrad region. The countries of this region are well aware of this and therefore are now trying with all their might to help Ukraine so that Russia will no longer have the strength.

Putin is doing everything he can to destroy Russia. Irrecoverable losses in the war with Ukraine have already amounted to over 900 thousand Russian soldiers and officers. Putin and his entourage believed that the capture of Ukraine would be an easy walk for a few days or weeks. But having miscalculated, he found himself in a situation from which there is no acceptable way out. In Russia, there is less and less hope for a miracle.

The main reason for the current critical situation in the country's economy is the colossal military spending, as well as the growing sanctions pressure, cutting Moscow off from its usual sources of income. Revenues for the first two months of the year amounted to only 3.9 trillion rubles with expenses of almost 7.8 trillion, that is, in fact, the country spends twice as much as it earns. Putin is used to bluffing, but he can do this until the fall of this year at the latest. And it is unlikely that Trump, on whom the Kremlin has recently been counting, will help him here. Russia will not be saved even by handing over Russian rare earth metals to the US, which they have seized on so that Trump can put more pressure on Ukraine and force it into an unfavorable peace.

It is impossible to violate an agreement that has not yet entered into force. Ukraine has not violated anything, since no agreement has been signed yet. Ukraine accepted the US proposal for a mutual truce to attack energy facilities and infrastructure facilities without any reservations. However, Russia did not give its consent to this, and began to put forward additional demands to Ukraine that have nothing to do with the ceasefire. Due to the fact that Russia refused to sign it, there is no agreement to this day. If someone claims that such an agreement existed and Ukraine violated it, let them indicate when it was signed, by which parties, from what time it entered into force, and most importantly, let them indicate which facilities cannot be attacked according to the agreement. Representatives of the parties have not yet decided on this issue, and there are those who accuse Ukraine of violating the future agreement.

The issue of sending European soldiers to Ukraine will be discussed by EU countries directly with Kiev, and not with an eye on Moscow's opinion on this issue. This follows from the statements made by French President Macron during his conversation with the media on Saturday, March 15.
"Ukraine is sovereign. If it asks to deploy allied troops on its territory, whether to accept it or not is none of Russia's business," Macron said.

https://www.ukr.net/ru/news/details/politics/110180268.html

Russia is currently in a very difficult situation. It is running out of armored vehicles and artillery. The Russian military admits that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have an advantage in drones, which destroy Russian tanks and armored vehicles even before they reach the attack line. Therefore, in some significant areas of the front, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have noted the absence of armored vehicles during assault operations since last year. There are a lot of people in Russia, but they also tend to run out. The irretrievable losses of Russian soldiers on the Ukrainian front have already exceeded 900,000 and this number continues to grow.

At the same time, Putin cannot refuse to continue the war, since the Russian economy has long been rebuilt on a war footing, and a return to a peaceful economy already threatens riots in Russia itself, when the military begins to return home, where the economy and key industries are on the brink of collapse.

More than 30 countries, including NATO countries France and Great Britain, have agreed to deploy their troops on the territory of Ukraine after the conclusion of a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia.
https://www.dw.com/ru/london-bolee-30-stran-gotovy-k-ucastiu-v-mirotvorceskoj-missii-v-ukraine/a-71956228

Currently, specific conditions and locations for the deployment of foreign troops in Ukraine are being discussed, and issues of responding to possible provocations and shelling of Ukrainian territory by Russia are being worked out. It is assumed that they will have the right to use weapons in the event of Russia violating the terms of the ceasefire.

At the same time, Ukraine's allies are considering sending two peacekeeping missions to Ukraine at once if a sustainable ceasefire is achieved between Kiev and Moscow. We are talking about the UN mission and the mission of the "Coalition of the Willing".

The UN peacekeeping force will consist of military personnel from India, Brazil, Indonesia and Saudi Arabia. They will be deployed on the Russian-Ukrainian border.

The military from the European "Coalition of the Willing" will control the borders between Ukraine and the EU. These could be soldiers from Great Britain, France, Germany, Canada and Italy.

The Italian La Stampa writes that one of the scenarios for deploying troops, which the "Coalition of the Willing" is working on, is to create four levels of interaction.
It is assumed that UN peacekeepers from non-European countries will be deployed in the demilitarized zone to monitor compliance with the ceasefire. This will be the first line of demarcation. Ukrainian troops will be on the second line. On the third line - a contingent of volunteers and not necessarily within Ukrainian territory. The fourth line is American protection.

Why should Ukrainian citizens explain to you whether they are currently fighting against an enemy that has attacked their country or not? Moreover, should they provide you with any evidence on this matter? Who are you collecting such information for? Do you by any chance work for the Russian FSB? And you certainly cannot be called an outsider, observing the war in Ukraine from the sidelines.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces are still present in the Kursk region of Russia, although they currently control a relatively small area. Recently, the best units of the Russian Federation have been deployed there, and there were so many Russian drones on fiber optics that the Ukrainian Armed Forces decided to retreat to more advantageous positions and not lose soldiers and equipment. The figures you cited for Ukrainian Armed Forces losses in the Kursk region are greatly exaggerated. I will only say that Russia lost more there, although not many times more.

At the same time, on March 19, the Ukrainian Armed Forces attacked the neighboring Belgorod region of Russia, broke through the defenses and went about 12 kilometers into this region. This is primarily a war of strategies, and Ukraine is very inventive in this regard.

https://www.dsnews.ua/politics/rosiyski-voyenkori-povidomili-shcho-zsu-zayshli-ta-zakripilisya-v-demidivci-na-byelgorodshchini-20032025-518831

The war in Ukraine cannot end without the participation of Ukraine and Europe, unless, of course, Russia withdraws its occupation troops from Ukrainian territory. All other conditions for ending the war will require the consent of Ukraine and the EU, regardless of what Trump and Putin agree on.

According to media reports, Trump was very disappointed with the telephone conversation with Putin. That is why he refused to hold a press conference, since there is nothing victorious to report. Trump hoped that Putin would agree to a full-fledged ceasefire for 30 days, which Ukraine and the United States proposed, but Putin only agreed to a ceasefire on energy infrastructure facilities, but in this case he demands that Ukraine stop mobilizing and rearming the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Moreover, this means stopping any military supplies and the transfer of intelligence.

In other words, Putin refused to stop hostilities for 30 days and, as always, at the same time puts forward demands that Ukraine cannot fulfill.

The US predicts further negotiations between representatives of the parties on March 23 in Jeddah, but so far there is no end to the war in Ukraine in sight. Today, Russia attacked Ukraine with 6 missiles and 145 drones, Ukraine, in turn, hit another oil refinery in the city of Kropotkin in the Krasnodar region of Russia.

You see, you have no worthy arguments to prove that the current war in Ukraine is a NATO war against Russia. This myth was invented in the Kremlin to somehow explain Russia's heavy defeat by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the battlefield.

However, global changes are currently taking place in NATO due to the fact that Trump is moving away from the principles of NATO's functioning and even threatening to leave this alliance. In this regard, the role of NATO has begun to diminish and in its place another defensive military alliance may emerge, led by European countries, where Ukraine will play a significant role with its technological solutions in the field of unmanned systems, missile programs, invaluable military experience and a significant army.

What Trump and Putin decide between themselves without European countries and Ukraine will have no consequences for them and they have already directly stated this. Trump is sharply moving away from democratic values and, following Putin, wants to make an empire out of the United States. He will not succeed, so in the near future we may see that due to the influence of external factors, he may leave the presidential chair.

Your comparison with the guys beating up is a bit unfortunate. The thing is that even if Russia loses this war, it will not mean death for its citizens or the country's elite. It will only mean actual death for the instigators of the war, and there are still various other options for them. For Russia itself, if it does not disintegrate into many independent states, this will be a good chance to pursue a different policy and a chance to eventually join the civilized states. Therefore, sensible people will not grab a nuclear club. Otherwise, the preparation for the use of nuclear weapons will definitely become known to the intelligence services of the world's states and then a preventive non-nuclear strike will be carried out on Russia and in this case physical death for many will become real.

As for the use of North Korean troops in the war against Ukraine, they showed themselves poorly only at the first stage, using the tactics of the Second World War, when the infantry went on the attack in large units. But they learn quickly and in the latest battles have already proven themselves to be a serious opponent. In addition, North Korean soldiers are very physically resilient, shoot accurately with small arms, are fearless and almost never surrender, preferring death. During the fighting, only a few North Korean soldiers were captured by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and only because they were wounded. There is information that all the relatives of those captured by the Ukrainian Armed Forces in North Korea were shot.

In fact, you confirm my words that there were and are no NATO troops on the territory of Ukraine. If regular NATO troops are not waging a war with Russia on the territory of Ukraine, then on what basis do you think that this is a war between NATO and Russia?
There are two possible scenarios here: the war between NATO and Russia is not taking place on the territory of Ukraine, or the war is not being waged by military actions, but is being waged economically, technologically, or some other way. Please clarify your position.

The possibility of introducing NATO troops into Ukraine as peacekeeping forces is currently being discussed in Europe. Great Britain is ready to send at least 10,000 of its troops to Ukraine, and France, Germany, and a number of other countries are also ready to introduce their troops, placing them in Kyiv, Lvov, and Odessa. In the event of a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, these forces should deter Russia from a new invasion.

https://www.ukr.net/ru/news/details/politics/110180072.html

https://glavred.info/war/skolko-mirotvorcev-strany-soyuzniki-napravyat-v-ukrainu-starmer-nazval-cifry-10647746.html

Firstly, this is not a war between Ukraine and Russia, but between Russia and Ukraine, since it was Russia that attacked Ukraine, and not vice versa.

Secondly, during the 11 years of military actions between these states, no regular military units of NATO member states have been deployed on the territory of Ukraine. If NATO troops had fought on the side of Ukraine, this war would have ended with Russia's defeat long ago. Ukraine receives various types of assistance in defending its sovereignty and territorial integrity from many states, including NATO members, but this assistance, especially weapons and military equipment, is very weak and does not allow Ukraine to achieve a relatively quick victory over the aggressor that attacked it.

And now an interesting question - who is Ukraine fighting with now? Because Russia does not have enough strength to seize the relatively small Ukraine, it uses elite units of the North Korean troops on the battlefield against Ukraine, as well as armored vehicles, air defense systems and millions of shells from North Korea. Therefore, in fact, there is a war between Russia and North Korea against Ukraine.

If Trump's plan was to have European countries step up their purchases of weapons and military equipment from the US, then it can be said that this plan failed miserably. After Trump and his team began to threaten their allies with economic sanctions and even war, Europe realized that the US is an unreliable partner and therefore it is dangerous to use American military equipment. After all, military equipment now contains electronics with numerous software controls. For example, in order to put pressure on Ukraine, the US turned off some functions on air defense systems and aircraft, as a result of which they at least lost their effectiveness. Therefore, Europe began to think that if the US wanted, it could make it so that, for example, the American F-35s supplied to them might not even take off. Then why would they take such a risk?

There is a way out and it is that Europe will build its own factories to produce its own military equipment, and will now gradually get rid of the American one.

Trump is also unbalanced in politics. Proof of this is his tariff policy, as a result of which he began to cancel the high customs duties he himself introduced in relation to other countries, including Canada, since they began to hit the United States hard.

The conflict in the Oval Office with Zelensky was planned by Trump to humiliate Zelensky and force him to sign a humiliating capitulation of Ukraine in the war with Russia. Trump failed to do this either. This also proves that Ukraine was not under the manual control of the United States, as some claimed on this forum.

But the situation with the war in Ukraine and Trump's attitude towards it will continue to change rapidly after Russia refuses to fulfill Trump's conditions for a peaceful resolution of the war it unleashed. Before that, there was gross pressure on Ukraine, and there will be similar pressure on Russia.

The incident in the White House occurred because Trump wanted to publicly humiliate Ukrainian President Zelensky and then force him to sign an agreement that would effectively mean capitulation to Russia. Trump's anger was caused by Zelensky's response that a lasting peace was only possible if Ukraine received security guarantees, that is, that Russia would not use the ceasefire to commit new aggression, as it has already done many times. This is quite logical. In the Oval Office, it was Trump and Vance who insulted Zelensky. If you can point out how and in what way Zelensky insulted Trump, I would like to hear it.

It is also not true that Ukraine has already joined NATO. Ukraine only wanted to join NATO and this is its right as a sovereign state. However, Russia carried out a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 absolutely not because of Ukraine's desire to join NATO. After all, Russia did not attack Finland or Sweden when they recently joined NATO. This is a regular war of conquest with the aim of seizing the territories of a neighboring state, and a pretext would have been found regardless of NATO.

The issue with Chechnya is of a completely different order. The Chechens wanted to secede from the Russian Federation with the formation of the Republic of Ichkeria, and the Kremlin brutally suppressed this desire of the Chechen people, destroying the city of Grozny and drowning this people's right to self-determination in blood. And then Putin made a deal with the Kadyrov regime. Russia is now subsidizing Chechnya, sending billions of dollars to the Kadyrov regime in order to keep the Chechens in obedience for now. Kadyrov is currently suppressing his people, who hate him, by force of arms. Now the central power of the Kremlin is weakening due to the war in Ukraine, and the Chechens will definitely use this opportunity to secede from Russia. It is only a matter of time.

Russia will not rebuild the captured territories of Ukraine. This can be seen in the example of the Luhansk and Donetsk regions of Ukraine captured since 2014. These territories, prosperous under Ukraine, have now turned into depressed areas with destroyed industry and a complete collapse in the housing and utilities sector. The DPR and LPR are already declaring that it is impractical to rebuild some cities, they are so destroyed. They will only rebuild those settlements where industry will be revived.

After what Russia did to Ukraine, no life in harmony between them is possible. At least for the next few generations. Only fascists committed such atrocities and the people of Ukraine will never forget it.

The US Congress and the American people will not tolerate Trump's antics for the entire four years of his presidency. Events will unfold very quickly. 16 states have already sued Trump over his illegal executive orders, and there are mass protests in 50 states against Trump and his team. If Trump does not smarten up soon and stop committing hostile acts against his neighbors and allies, he will be carried out of the White House. The only difference is whether he is feet first or not.

You started by saying that Great Britain made a good deal with Ukraine, represented by its President Zelensky, which, judging by the general text of your post, is enslaving for Ukraine. But you still haven't disclosed the essence of the deal and your conclusions are absolutely wrong.

In this regard, I want to clarify. On March 1, Ukraine and Great Britain signed an agreement to provide Kyiv with a $3.2 billion loan to support its own defense capability and to continue to defend its independence from an attack by Russia. This loan will be serviced and repaid at the expense of future profits received from frozen Russian assets. Therefore, Ukraine will not return any of the loan received to Great Britain.
https://hromadske.ua/ru/mir/240653-ukrayina-ta-velyka-brytaniia-pidpysaly-uhodu-pro-pozyku-32-mlrd-na-pidtrymku-oborony
For Ukraine, therefore, this deal is quite good.

Since taking office, Trump has been trying to pressure Zelensky to force Ukraine to sign a peace treaty with Russia on Putin's terms, that is, to force Ukraine to capitulate. And "experienced" Trump suffers one failure after another from "inexperienced" Zelensky. Trump called Zelensky a dictator (though he later retracted his words),
https://www.dw.com/ru/donald-tramp-ne-verit-cto-nazval-vladimira-zelenskogo-diktatorom/a-71777879
stated that Zelensky has only 4 percent of the support of the people of Ukraine (although at that time Zelensky's support was 57 percent, and has now grown to 63 percent),
https://24tv.ua/ru/rejting-zelenskogo-aktualnye-oprosy-na-fevral-2025-novosti-ukrainy-24-kanal_n2756772
and on February 28, together with his vice president Vence, in front of journalists' cameras, they publicly tried to humiliate Zelensky and force him to sign an agreement on rare earth metals that is disadvantageous for Ukraine. But Zelensky withstood the onslaught and worthily parried the impudent ones.

Why is Trump behaving so inappropriately, even though his rating in his own country has begun to fall sharply? The answer may be a statement by the former chairman of the KGB of Kazakhstan, Alnur Musayev, on his Facebook page.

“In 1987, I served in the 6th Directorate of the KGB of the USSR in Moscow. The most important area of work of the 6th Directorate was the recruitment of businessmen from capitalist countries. It was that year that our Directorate recruited 40-year-old businessman from the USA, Donald Trump, under the pseudonym “Krasnov,” Musayev wrote.

https://world.comments.ua/news/germany/trampa-zaverbovalo-kgb-esche-v-1987-godu-gromkoe-zayavlenie-eksglavy-knb-kazahstana-760936.html#google_vignette

The President of the United States is an agent of the KGB of the USSR since 1987, and now of Russia under the pseudonym "Krasnov"? Is this why he wants the capitulation of Ukraine to please Putin, who has damning dirt on him?
