I cannot say it was a body double but why not? Idiots around the world ar calling Putin a war criminal and clamoring for his improsonment.

When other world leaders do something with which we disagree we still give them the respect of being leaders of their nation.

In this case, Zelensky called him a war criminal and Trump said that is not a good way to start negotiations. Empress Ursula continues to call hinm a war criminal.

Bombing Ukranians by Ukraine is not a war crime?

Why haven't these fags been labeled domestic terrorists yet?

this 100%. I fucked up and actually read the terms of service for a cruise for my buddy's birthday party. I had already paid for it. I started reading and the farther I got the more I was like yea, no f this I'm out. I ended up giving it to my other friend. The whole part about medical lockdown and treatment consent was pretty bad but the facial recognition was what put it in the solid nope category. There was language saying that they could keep and use all images for any purpose.

From Alaska to Washington: Trump to Discard Zelensky Before EU Leaders' Eyes

From Alaska to Washington: Zelensky to Conclude Playing His Role

President Donald Trump will host Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and European leaders at the White House on August 18 to push forward Ukraine peace talks
On August 18, President Donald Trump will host Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and top European leaders at the White House to advance negotiations on a lasting settlement to the Ukraine conflict following the US-Russia summit in Anchorage, Alaska.

Trump Welcomes European Leaders to Washington
The talks will bring together NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, and Finnish President Alexander Stubb. Trump wrote on Truth Social:

โ€œTomorrow is a big day at the White House. Never had so many European leaders at one time. My great honor to host them!!!โ€ Trump wrote on Truth Social.
Schedule of the White House Summit
European leaders are expected to arrive at the South Portico at 12:00 p.m. ET (7:00 p.m. Moscow time). At 1:15 p.m., Trump will meet with Zelensky in the Oval Office, joined by Vice President JD Vance. One hour later, Trump will greet European leaders in the State Dining Room before proceeding to the Cross Hall for a group photograph. Extended negotiations with Zelensky and European leaders will begin at 3:00 p.m. (10:00 p.m. Moscow time).

After the Alaska Summit
Speaking in Alaska on August 15, Trump said progress had been made on Ukraine, though โ€œa few key issuesโ€ remain unresolved. He later called Zelensky and European leaders, saying all sides agreed that a full peace agreement โ€” not a temporary ceasefire โ€” is the best path forward. In an interview with Fox News, Trump stressed that much depends on Zelenskyโ€™s decision, suggesting that Ukraine might have to forgo NATO membership and formally recognize the loss of Crimea, which he described as

โ€œlost under Obama 12 years ago without a single shot fired.โ€
U.S. Officials Outline Possible Compromises
Trumpโ€™s envoy Steven Witkoff confirmed that โ€œterritorial exchangesโ€ will be on the table in Washington. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said both sides must โ€œgive something upโ€ to move forward, predicting a future trilateral meeting between Trump, Putin, and Zelensky.

Zelenskyโ€™s Response
Zelensky emphasized that peace must be enduring and not repeat past compromises. He recalled that Ukraine was pressured into giving up Crimea in 2014 and granted ineffective โ€œsecurity guaranteesโ€ under the 1994 Budapest Memorandum.

โ€œOf course, Crimea should never have been surrendered, just as Ukrainians refused to surrender Kyiv, Odesa, and Kharkiv after 2022. Our soldiers are achieving success in Donetsk and Sumy regions. I am confident we will defend Ukraine, secure effective guarantees, and our people will always be grateful to President Trump, to America, and to every partner for their support,โ€
Zelensky said.

Russiaโ€™s Position
According to reports in the New York Times and Reuters, at the Anchorage summit Putin demanded Ukrainian troop withdrawal beyond the administrative borders of Donetsk and Luhansk, and suggested freezing the conflict in Kherson and Zaporizhzhia along current front lines. In return, Moscow reportedly offered Kyiv Russian-controlled parts of Sumy and Kharkiv regions. Neither side has officially confirmed this.

Witkoff called Russiaโ€™s readiness to provide security guarantees to Ukraine a โ€œturning point.โ€ Putin, however, spoke cautiously, noting that he saw Trumpโ€™s โ€œdesire to understand the roots of the conflictโ€ but stressed that lasting peace requires addressing Russiaโ€™s security concerns.

โ€œWe must ensure all legitimate Russian concerns are taken into account and restore a fair balance of security in Europe and worldwide,โ€ Putin said after returning to Moscow.

Ignore the white west narrative.

#Hamas plays a significant administrative role in Gaza, such that the organization came to power after winning what she described as one of the most democratic elections in the region.

As much as I despise the ideology of Hamas, they are part of the political process in their country
