A REAL leader would know how to deal with this.

according to

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/us-hands-russia-written-response-to-demands

it seems that NATO admission for Ukraine is what is bothering "Vlad the Putinater" so much.

So, we KNOW what's really bugging him: the threat of NATO missiles
RIGHT ON HIS BORDER.

General Sun Tzu had a solution to all of this, and IT! IS! BRILLIANT!

It is ALSO very, bery simple: Give him the precvious thing HE wants,
but in exchange for something that WE want that is NOT important enough
for Vlad to care about much.

So what can we get from Russia in exchange for no NATO for Ukraine?

How about getting rid of evil hackers hiding inside of Russia? THat
includes his own military.

How about guarantees that Ukraine will NOT be threatened to the point
where they WANT to be members of NATO?

How about cooperation with our intelligence when it comes to tracking
down international criminals?

How about demonstrating to everyone that there is no more need for
sanctions by NOT being "a bad actor" (etc.). (then we lift them)

How about NOT doing joint military exercises wth Iran and China?

(and so on - there can be more than one)


I believe that Vlad actually wants things to be peaceful, but he's an
old school communist at heart and doesn't know how to deal nor do diplomacy.

But... I fear the MORONS and DONOR CLASS and MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX
in additiopn to BITE-ME's PUPPETEERS will do EVERYTHING to CLUSTER FUCK
THIS SITUATION into an ACTUAL ARMED CONFLICT... because it EMPOWERS THEM
to do so.


Sun Tzu said that peace is better than war. I am certain that Trump
read his book a LONG time ago, when he learned to make deals
successfully. Yeah, I MISS TRUMP...
