Who gave the US the power to reject negotiation proposals between Ukraine and Russia? I thought Ukraine is an independent and sovereign country defending itself from an invading force. Who's the US to say what Ukraine can and can't meet to discuss?

The CIA, when they couped Ukraine's leadership. It's just a puppet state acting in America's interests now.

Oh, the burger crackers took that power themselves. No one ceded it to them.

Indeed they did, as they always do. I just can't stand burger crackers insisting that Ukraine is a sovereign nation, while at the same time their trusted media and government openly admit that the shots are being called from Washington and not Kiev.

My question is why is the US rejecting anything, isn't that a war between Russia and Ukraine?

[–] PakledBrain@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

That's the reason they're rejecting it. From the article:

“Barring a Ukrainian demand signal” for peace talks, “there’s unlikely to be a push from Washington,” he said.
