      Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has formally ruled out talks with Russia after it illegally declared four Ukrainian regions to be part of Russia.

      Zelensky’s decree released Tuesday declares that holding negotiations with Russian President Vladimir Putin has become impossible after his decision to annex four regions of Ukraine. The decree also approves the decision of Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council to strengthen Ukrainian defenses and seek more weapons from the country’s Western allies in response to Moscow’s move.

      Ah so “has become impossible” is now “has been made illegal”. Tankie text comprehension, I presume.

      time to remind people that zelensky made having peace negotiations with putin ILLEGAL

      Can you quote the part of the article which made you think so? I don’t see the article saying what you claim it says.

      A reminder from the KidsPost team: Our stories are geared to 7- to 13-year-olds.
      

      It’s alright if you are younger than that. Otherwise, I think all you achieved is reminding people how dishonest and untrustworthy lemmygrad users can be. You would have helped your cause more had you not made that comment.

      Russia’s upper house of parliament on Tuesday voted to support the treaties that make the Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions of Ukraine part of Russia.”

      Nobody actually has any argument against this except ad hominems, which is usually fairly telling.

        I guess if we ignore the two comments pointing out how the article doesn’t state what he claims Zelensky said, then yeah nobody has any arguments.

        Or were you expecting arguments against a fictional statement? Because I can come back with some just as fictional counter-arguments if that’s what you were looking for.

            Yeah, lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml ban people for posting dissenting comments. So their users can believe no dissenting opinions exist.

            It’s a bid sad they cannot spot that the article, which is very short and written for children, does not say what they claim it says, but well.

          Exactly.

          There really is nothing to negotiate anyway.

          Ukraine does not want to give up territory.

          Giving Russia anything for it is tatamount to paying a ransom. It would only encourage Russia to invade again in a decade or less.

          Russia turning around and giving up the territory without gaining anything is just accepting complete defeat. They won’t do that.

          So it’s a battle of attrition, both morale and economic.
