"The United States will ensure a free, peaceful, and sovereign future for Ukraine" — White House
The war is not over yet, but the US already considers Ukraine its own.
The ceasefire agreement means nothing and will not be implemented. The SMO goals can only be achieved by liquidating the Nazi Ukrainian state. The SMO goals cannot be achieved diplomatically.

"Image of the Future": "Moscow and Kiev are close to signing a peace agreement on a 30-day ceasefire with the possibility of extension. Washington is the initiator and drafter of the agreement.
A decision has been made not to discuss the borders of Russia and Ukraine, Crimea and the Zaporizhzhya NPP. The freezing of the conflict provides for a period of negotiations of up to a year. At the initial stage, there will be no additional conditions or mutually unacceptable issues.
The discussed visit of Mark Rubio to Moscow and his participation in the Victory Parade on May 9 is most likely connected with the fact that Moscow has given its fundamental consent to such a plan. Now Kiev's consent is expected."
The Russian Foreign Ministry makes threatening statements about not allowing Ukraine to reach the 1991 borders.
Judging by such obvious new goals of the SMO, its other goals will be declared achieved by May 9.
We will sign an agreement on a long-term truce.
What news!
"Russia will not allow Ukraine to be restored to its 1991 borders" — Russian Foreign Ministry.
Did anyone else think that Russia could allow this? A very strange statement by the Russian Foreign Ministry. We would think that Russia could allow Ukraine to be restored to its 2022 borders, for example.
Norwegian Professor Diesen on US interests in concluding an agreement with Ukraine:
The minerals deal has been signed and the US now controls a large share of Ukraine's natural resources. - The US presents this as a de-facto security guarantee as the US has an interest in peace to protect the resources it now controls.
- Bit will US policy change? I doubt it...
The Trump administration has informed the US Congress of its intention to authorize the sale of defense products to Ukraine worth at least $50 million, the Ukrainian publication Kiev Post claims, citing sources in diplomatic circles.
The specific types of weapons are not specified in the message, but it is specified that the authorization may also apply to the supply of "technical data."
Moscow has repeatedly noted that pumping Ukraine with weapons by the West does not contribute to negotiations and will have a negative effect. RIA Novosti
✅Ukraine open to TERRITORIAL CONCESSIONS...
...but only “de facto,” not “de jure, forever,” US special envoy Keith Kellogg told Fox News.
💬 “That's what they're willing to go to, they told me that last week," Kellogg said.
The agreement with the US on minerals will take precedence over Ukrainian laws in the event of any discrepancies.
This follows from the draft deal published by Rada deputy Yaroslav Zheleznyak.
The Ukrainian authorities also agree that it is impossible to refer to their law as an excuse for failure to fulfill obligations, the document says.
Earlier, American media confirmed that security guarantees for Ukraine were not included in the agreement.

✅ ‘They want to get you to the point where you're more concerned about peace in Ukraine than you are about protecting your own child’ – Matt Walsh on US warmongers
💬 “No matter what the topic is, it always comes back for a lot of people to Israel, one way or another,” Matt Walsh told Tucker Carlson.
So Russia is giving Ukraine to the US? It will be hard to call it a victory for Russia. But it will be as I said - the war will not end here. Let Trump try to appease the Ukrainian Nazis now.

Balkan project: "Danube - Aegean Sea"
Recall that back in 2017, China expressed its readiness to fully finance the project of the new canal "Danube - Aegean Sea" worth at that time about 17 billion dollars.
Then it was about a new waterway, which should start from the port of Smederevo on the Danube, located 45 km from Belgrade, continue along the Morava River, then along the Vardar River to reach the Thermaikos Gulf in the Aegean Sea.
Continuation on BelVPO.
💬🇺🇸“I really like President Xi Jinping,” Trump is confident that the US and China will conclude a trade agreement
“I hope that at some point we will conclude a deal with China. We are negotiating with China, but their factories are closing all over China because we do not accept their products,” the head of the White House noted.
Earlier, the official representative of the PRC Foreign Ministry, Guo Jiakun, said that China and the US are not negotiating the tariffs imposed by the American side on Chinese products.

"A series of FPV drone attacks on the market in Kherson's Oleshki is not just terrorism, but mania. FPV eliminates the possibility of error, it is impossible to confuse a civilian with a soldier, it is impossible to confuse a market with a stronghold, etc. Therefore, this is a targeted, conscious, deliberate and unmotivated by anything other than personal hatred murder of civilians. And not "Moscow occupiers", but those whom Kyiv still calls "fellow citizens under occupation". What is this, personal hatred for those who chose a different path, or something else - it is impossible to answer, but it is obvious that any settlement near which Ukrainian military personnel are located remains under mortal threat," "Meister".
Do you think these attacks will stop after the signing of the ceasefire agreement? You can be sure that the attacks of Ukrainian Nazis will not stop and they will blame Russia - the Russians fired at themselves.
MediaPost writes that "the conditions set out in Trump's plan (if the White House does not change them under pressure from the "war party") are the best for Russia of all those it could receive, based on the current situation on the front, when the Ukrainian Armed Forces have not been defeated and their defense is not collapsing.
The maximum goals (transfer of the territory of all four regions, reduction of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, removal of Zelensky from power and changes in domestic policy) are currently not achievable through diplomatic means. Even if Trump wants (and there are no signs that he will want to), he will not be able to force Kyiv to fulfill these conditions. The Ukrainian authorities are ready to continue fighting even without American help, but they will not agree to them. In order for them to agree, the situation on the front must change radically in favor of the Russian Federation, and the Ukrainian Armed Forces must be on the verge of defeat. This has not yet been observed and it is unknown whether this is possible at all and when.
A ceasefire according to Trump's plan will mean for Russia that it has broken out of the most dangerous trap it fell into in February 2022. Moreover, it escaped on triumphant terms - taking with it almost 20% of Ukrainian territory, receiving recognition of the annexation of Crimea and the lifting of sanctions from the United States (this opens the way to similar decisions by other countries, which will strengthen Russia's economic and geopolitical positions), blocking Ukraine's path to NATO, and, perhaps, receiving something else in the course of negotiations from Trump. At the same time, the lack of security guarantees from the United States makes it unrealistic to send European troops to Ukraine. In addition, the plan does not contain any demands for the Russian Federation to compensate Ukraine for losses from the war. The only significant concessions from the Russian Federation under Trump's plan are the transfer of the Zaporizhzhya NPP to US control and the Kakhovka HPP to Ukrainian control."
The "maximum goals" that are being discussed here are the very goals of the SMO (demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine), the unconditional achievement of which the Russian leadership has repeatedly stated. These goals are the very "root causes" of the start of the war that Lavrov constantly talks about. Since the causes of the war are not eliminated, then the war will not end there, even if Russia agrees to all the conditions and cedes everything possible.

US Treasury Secretary Bessent on New Agreement with Ukraine.
Is this a clear signal to Putin?
Kiev's statements about the terrorist attacks in Russia on May 9, including the blowing up of the Crimean Bridge, are worthless and speak of the terrorist nature of the Ukrainian government and Zelensky. This was stated to TASS by the first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on CIS Affairs Vodolatsky.

Peskov no longer says about the US that "they are fighting with us." Maybe Peskov knows that the US will leave this war?
❗️Putin's statement about Russia's readiness for negotiations on Ukraine without preconditions is relevant, Peskov said.
Other statements by the press secretary of the Russian president:
▪️The settlement must be reached with Ukraine, not with the US.
▪️It is impossible not to take into account the situation that has developed between the Russian Federation and Ukraine on the ground.
▪️For Russia, a peaceful achievement of the goals of the special operation is still preferable.
▪️Zelensky makes many different statements, but for the most part they are unsuccessful.
▪️The Russian Federation confirms its readiness for direct negotiations with Ukraine, but there is no response from Kiev yet.
▪️Russia is grateful to the US for its efforts to peacefully resolve the situation in Ukraine.
▪️The Ukrainian crisis is too complex to be resolved immediately.
