Vladimir Putin has cemented his name as one of the worst human beings on the face of the planet.
Even during times of war, holiday truces are the norm.
Not this year.
Bombs Away
Putin’s present to Ukraine on Christmas morning was a volley of missiles raining down in Ukrainian towns.
More than 40 missiles were launched by the Russians and Ukrainian cities.
Russia also reported shooting down a Ukrainian drone.
However, three Russian troops were killed from the debris of the falling drone.
There was another rather startling development in this war.
Putin went public stating that he wanted a diplomatic solution to the war.
He stated, “We are ready to negotiate with everyone involved about acceptable solutions, but that is up to them – we are not the ones refusing to negotiate, they are.”
An adviser to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Mykhailo Podolyak, denied that is the case.
He stated, “Russia single-handedly attacked Ukraine and is killing citizens.
“Russia doesn’t want negotiations, but tries to avoid responsibility.”
In his Christmas day address, Zelensky stated, “Russia has lost everything it could this year. … I know darkness will not prevent us from leading the occupiers to new defeats. But we have to be ready for any scenario.”
To know who to believe right now but since Russia has made it public, Biden needs to start pressuring Ukraine to sit down and broker this peace deal.
The sooner the better because the American people are sick and tired of being Ukraine’s piggy bank.
