U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken says the United States and its allies should not support a cease-fire or peace talks to end the war in Ukraine until Kyiv gains strength and can negotiate on its own terms. Blinken said in Finland on Friday that heeding calls from Russia and others for negotiations now would result in a false “Potemkin peace” that wouldn’t secure Ukraine’s sovereignty and or enhance European security. He argued that a cease-fire allowing Russian President Vladimir Putin “to consolidate control over the territory he has seized, and rest, rearm, and re-attack" would not bring "a just and lasting peace.” Kyiv has given confusing signals about whether a counteroffensive is coming or already underway.
“We believe the prerequisite for meaningful diplomacy and real peace is a stronger Ukraine, capable of deterring and defending against any future aggression,” Blinken said in a speech in Finland, which recently became NATO’s newest member and shares a long border with Russia.
Thanks for further confirming that you struggle with basic logical propositions. Comedians can be clever, but that does not imply that all comedians are clever. Again, a small child would be able to understand this, but you evidently aren’t. And that’s what makes you a joke.
yet you just called me a “natural comedian”

Nowhere did I say that you’re clever, but thanks for confirming my point here.
the point that you’re easily amused?
Nah the point that you don’t even know the difference between the words clever and funny. It really is hilarious.
how do you know? are you pretending to be a psychic again?
nah, I just know how to read https://lemmy.ml/comment/444985
all this proves is that you don’t think comedians can be clever. or that you have poor reading comprehension. possibly both.

wow, you really can twist anything into what you want to hear, regardless of what was said.
