The total emasculation of the European countries and the irrelevance of the US military has never been more obvious than seeing the British Prime Minister and other Clown World puppets shaking their tiny little fists at the Russians.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has ‘called Putin out’ and demanded ‘no ifs or buts’ as he joined world leaders in cranking up pressure on Russia to accept a ceasefire in Ukraine. The leaders of Britain, France, Germany and Poland arrived in Kyiv on Saturday for talks with Ukrainian President Zelensky in a show of unity of the ‘coalition of the willing’, a day after Putin hosted his allies for a Red Square Victory Day parade.
Speaking in a press conference alongside his European counterparts, Sir Keir said Europe is ‘stepping up’ on the 80th anniversary of VE day to secure Ukraine’s long-term future – after Putin called a three-day ceasefire for his Moscow event.
‘Volodymyr, we stand with you to secure the just and lasting peace that Ukraine deserves,’ the PM said.
‘It’s almost two months now since you agreed to an immediate 30 day ceasefire. In that time, Russia has launched some of the most deadly attacks on civilians of the entire war, including here in Kyiv. Normal lives, homes, families, destroyed.
‘This is what Russia offers in place of peace along with delays, smoke screens, like the current 72 hour ceasefire. And so all of us here together with the US are calling Putin out.
‘If he’s serious about peace then he has a chance to show it now. By extending the VE day pause into a full unconditional 30 day ceasefire, with negotiations to follow immediately after a ceasefire is agreed. No more ifs and buts, no more conditions and delays. Putin didn’t need conditions when he wanted a ceasefire to have a parade. And he doesn’t need them now.’
This isn’t that hard. Putin wanted a parade. He doesn’t want Kiev to rearm its depleted military. If Kiev is going to rearm during a ceasefire, then there will be no ceasefire. Russia has already been through this twice already and does not intend to do so again.
Who, or what, do these clowns think they’re impressing? I think the only reason the Russians don’t simply hazeltree the lot of them at one of their bi-weekly ritual gatherings is because Putin knows that even if their posturing is tedious and annoying, their ineffectual non-leadership isn’t getting in the way of the Russians achieving their objectives.
It’s like a spin on the old Robin Williams joke. “Sanctions! Now stop, or I shall sanction you again!”
