Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico said over the weekend that the only way to end the war in Ukraine is for Kyiv to give up some of its territory to Russia.
“There has to be some kind of compromise,” Fico said, according to POLITICO. “What do they expect, that the Russians will leave Crimea, Donbas, and Luhansk? That’s unrealistic.”
Fico was elected toward the end of 2023 after campaigning to end Slovakia’s support for the war in Ukraine. His government followed through on the pledge and stopped supplying Ukraine with military aid, which was significant since Slovakia is a NATO member.
Fico will meet with Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal on Wednesday and said he will tell him that Slovakia will block any attempts to bring Ukraine into NATO. “I will tell him that I am against the membership of Ukraine in NATO and that I will veto it,” Fico said. “It would merely be a basis for World War III, nothing else.”
The Slovak leader said Ukraine was not a “sovereign nation” since it is “under the total influence and control of the United States.”
Responding to Fico’s comments, Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleg Nikolenko said Kyiv would not give up any territory even though Ukrainian forces have no chance of beating Russia on the battlefield. “There can be no compromise on territorial integrity. Not Ukraine, not Slovakia, not any other country,” he said.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and other top Ukrainian officials are still pushing the idea that the war can’t end until Russia is driven out of all the territory it has captured, as well as Crimea, which has been under Russian control since 2014. But Ukrainian forces are on the defensive now after the failed counteroffensive, and war weariness is growing, both in Ukraine and in the Western countries the war effort is reliant on.
As long as Kyiv is ran by U.S/UK, even after a territorial concession, Russia will not sleep easy. Time is something Russia can’t control, and eventually will be used against them. It’s a pickle no doubt about it.
The reality on the battlefield is that Russia is losing.

PAYBACK TIME: A SERIES OF ATTACKS IS ROCKING RUSSIAN MILITARY FACILITES
Is that you, Bagdad Bob?
Nothing you posted confirms your statement that russia is lossing.
Link 1. Is just one guy says blah blah, . . Really?
Link 2. Is just about two seperate military targets in a very vast warzone
Link 3. Is a propaganda piece by the other side.
None of these confirm at all that russia is losing anything. You posted junk info to back up an exagerated claim.
No compromise? No problem. No Ukraine.
We just have to give the Empire a little bit more time.
First to revise the narrative concerning the utter failure of the 2023 “counteroffensive” with a new spin to report that the Empire, I mean Ukraine (oops!), was just testing Russian defensive lines and didn’t really intend on reclaiming lost territory.
And second, they merely were staging for a long term “active defense” and hoping that escalation of other conflicts/issues in the Middle East and Asia Pacific will serve as a distraction whereby the the conflict in Ukraine will not be a main topic anymore.
At that point, and with minimal global media coverage, the Empire will direct Ukraine to negotiate a peace agreement with Russia simultaneously ceding all lost territory and claiming a tactical victory over Russia, because that’s what the plan was all along. Right?
“MISSION ACCOMPLISHED” ver. 2.0

Russia has long claimed Eastern Ukraine as an integral part of Russia. There is no way the Russians are going to get out of Eastern Ukraine after the sacrifices in Russian troops that has been made.
Their idea of “eastern” Ukraine stops at the Berlin Wall!
We need more leaders like him to stand up and say it as it is .
Well Fico got one thing right — “The Slovak leader said Ukraine was not a “sovereign nation” since it is “under the total influence and control of the United States.””
… and will be abandoned by “the United States” at its convenience.
Perhaps the most significant part of this statement is that his government will prevent Ukraine’s admission to NATO. His government is not the only one. I understand that Hungary and Turkey are also resisting. The only modicum 0f security for Ukraine will have to come from a NATO-Russian sponsored European security arrangement.
Putin’s intentions may become clearer this spring. If there is no major Russian offensive towards Kyiv, he does not intend to take all of Ukraine.
Putin in UNABLE to take all of Ukraine. (Fixed it for you.)
This is great news! Perhaps you could tell Olaf Scholz he doesn’t need to send all those troops to Poland’s eastern border after all.
I’m not in charge of Polish foreign policy.
No, he could, Russia could. But they don’t or they would have adopted a completely different strategy. Strategy is a thing unknown to Western powers, but in short it amounts to sort of adapting plans to means and means to plans in order to reach a clearly defined realizable goal that his been decided beforehand. When you’re a serious military power you don’t want to sort of randomly do shit to produce miracles you’re never really sure what they are.
I think Putin wanted to handle Ukraine much as he handled Georgia. He protected what he considered most important, then stopped… of his own accord.
I have long assumed that he doesn’t want to control anything west of the Dnipro River. But things have changed in the last 2 years. Odessa is a separate case. Kiev and Dnipro, which both lie on both sides of the Dnipro, are also special cases.
Interestingly, Ukraine is said to be making plans to move the capital from Kiev to Lviv, should that become necessary.

The ultranationalists who control the government of Ukraine are making it easier for Putin to achieve his second objective:
1. Ukraine must be demilitarized
2. The Nazis (Stepan Bandera inspired ultranationalists) must be eliminated
3. Ukraine must be/remain neutral
The world must become demilitarized. Its is not fair if one side does (ukraine) and the other does not.(russia)
That inbalance just influences power and control of one side without checks and balances for upholding the much needed ethics upon humanity, who knows who the next leader of russia will be. With all that power? You can not expect one side neutral and one side heaviliy militarized.
All sides must become neutral with high reaching laws which uphold the rights of citizens.
The schwab group will never obtain such beautiful things. They are incapable of anything but detruction. Neither will the Current US regime, Or anyone in the mid east, etc.
Where are the honorable men amongst us? Where have they gone? Are there none to be found?
We live in a world ruled by hate and lies and no men of actual substance.
I agree with your ideals. But I don’t see any chance that humanity will ever behave that way.
I do think that Putin was correct in his assessment that NATO wants to surround Russia, and that the intentions of the people within NATO who are driving expansion are hostile to Russia.
Yes it definitly seems that way,
Also i believe the history of that region was that EU countries had helped hammer out peace agreements a few times up north (minsk agreement) and that certain units i n Ukraine began edging on violations of the agreement by moving military into the region.
There seems to be no doubt the US and Ukraine wanted this war and egged it on.
However , I think zelenski over estimated US and world commitment and capabiloties (his mistake) It would seem the US heart wasnt in it.
If it was up to me those sides such as dombas and crimea which desire to support russia should become in some way a part of russian domain..
However Crimea is a major food producer and the west fears a more powerful russia. They live in egotistical pride and fear. I always find it strange that they abandon the admiration of the entire worlds population in excange for this. Veru strange.
I have come to believe this ego and fear of world leaders is a rsult of a mental disease caused by wealth and power, I firmly believe this. One of the results of this mental results of this abberation is a lack of empathy towards innocent people along with a self destructive behavior. They actually believe that to take an inncent life even that of a young child playing in the street is acceptable. Those afflicted can not see they have a problem or will in any way admit it to themselves much like a bad drug addictio, alcohol, family abuse, etc. We really need laws to help these people so they become a better part of our society. They live a life of insatiable greed and fear. And they could instaed rather live a life of enjoyment, satisfaction, and admiration of the world if they would only seek help rather than lashing out in fear, greed, and frustration
Just my take i suppose.
Its too bad that those in power lean heavily upon domination and military might, rather than humility , friendship, and understanding. We really need them and they are not helping. If they became better leaders I believe most the worlds problems would melt away.
The world suffers while those who can not handle the influemce of power further weild it.. . . Anyways
I will adamently hope for a better world, even though i can not see it happening.
Things in this world must change. And those in power have proven themselves inadequate and incapable. There needs to be changes in laws that regulate the mental well being of those in power. . . Anyways again i digress
And yes, It seems the west and certain racial groups inside Ukraines political influence asked for thos war in Ukraine.
It is all about laundering money for Biden, his cabal, Zelensky and U.S. RINOs.
Has this guy paid ANY attention to History at all??? That never works as planned with ambitious totalitarians!
“Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and other top Ukrainian officials are still pushing the idea that the war can’t end until Russia is driven out of all the territory it has captured.”
No, Decamp, Zelensky isn’t pushing it. The Ujrainian people are. If Zelensky gave Putin even an inch of territory, he would be impeached.
Germany has no clue on Russia

“Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and other top Ukrainian officials are still pushing the idea that the war can’t end until Russia is driven out of all the territory it has captured.”
No, Decamp, Zelensky isn’t pushing it. The Ukrainian people are. If Zelensky gave Putin a single citizen, or even an inch of territory, he would be impeached.
For all this globalist spew and US flapping about freedom and democracy.
If these people really believed what comes out of their mouth, they would let the people in these regions decide who belongs where and back those decisions full force.
War lovers spew false doctrines to continue opressing the civilian populations. What you hear from them is almost always lies and deception.
Let the civilian populations in crimea, donbas, etc. decide. Thats the reality of freedom and democracy.
I am begining to believe that individual serial killers have gained control of world militaries and are having a hay day.
If you count the number of war supporters backing these individuals it becomes obvious that there are more sadistical serial killers in this world than what we currently understand and know.
Really. How difficult is it to let civilians decide what type of government they want and to let them alone and protect that right to live in peace without racial hate.
One thing for sure. This killing is about the pleasure of killing human civilians, a detest of humanity, and control of worldly production. And has nothing to do with freedom and democracy and the rights of individuals.
If it did supprt freedom, democracy, and humanity, there would be an overwhelming cry for peace and sitting at the table of correspondence.
. . . Pity.
I want Robert Fico to be our next POTUS. He is for ending the war in Ukraine and against admitting Ukraine to NATO. He should withdraw Slovakia from NATO and close US Bases there.
Ukraine and so many other countries are under the total influence and control of the United States and the United States and many of its allies are under the total control and influence of Israel.
Biden and Zelensky want their kickbacks.
