Found it in a comment section from someone I don't know.
It was originally posted in Russian - goes by the moniker Tyrone
So, what’s next in the US-Ukraine-UK/France triangle?
-
Trump offered Ukraine to sign the Agreement on Ukrainian Assets. Zelensky will not sign.
-
The process will go to court in an American court.
-
All subsequent US aid will be provided only on a commercial basis. And as soon as Ukraine signs such an agreement, this will automatically become proof of commercial and the aid that has already been provided.
-
Britain and France will also begin to formalize aid as a loan.
-
The US will also transfer intelligence data for Ukraine to the category of commercial aid.
-
In parallel, the US will begin to lift sanctions against Russia, which will raise a similar question in Europe.
-
Japan and South Korea will join the US sanctions policy.
-
The political confrontation between Europe and the US will move into the format of a brutal economic war.
-
Small European countries will begin to either side with the US or take neutrality.
-
The US will begin criminal prosecution of Ukrainian individuals involved in the theft of money and material assets paid for from the US budget.
-
In a few months, Zelensky will be recognized as a hostile person for the US.
We don’t even have to do anything. (translated from Russian)
Quite a bit to unpack.
Almost sounds like old news, but it is definitely getting Old. Him and that agreement are like Lucy and the football.
I don't understand how an American Court can have jurisdiction over a "process" that does not result in a contract or treaty and is international in character.
The sticking point is that Zelensky has no authority to sign anything. Whatever happened to elections in Ukraine?
My impression from what has already been said in the press is that they had done this from the beginning. It was Biden who blew billions as "grants."
Transfer of intelligence data means only the continuation of conflict with Russia. This does not comport with a peace-seeking result.
Could be.
Could also be.
Will? I suspect we are already at the beginning.
Yes. Some are doing it already (e.g., Hungary).
Again, there is the question of jurisdiction. I'm all for rounding these creeps up, but under whose legitimate authority?
Can never come too soon.
This is too much fancy footwork. Meanwhile, the Russians are grinding away, turning the Ukrainian Army into occupants of cemeteries. Zelensky is the turd in the doorway: a worthless poseur / warlord who can only say "No" to peace.
Frankly, if I were Trump, and I didn't care about optics, I would invite Zelensky somewhere (under U.S. jurisdiction) for a chit-chat, then arrest him for war crimes and bundle him off to Russia for Putin to take care of. Then, having washed the floor, and with a Russian ceasefire at hand, instruct the Ukrainians that they can either live or die, but they will not have a victory. The U.S. will have withdrawn all assistance, material or immaterial. If they want to die, the U.S. will happily provide Russia with battlefield intelligence. If they want to live, they can lay down arms, return to their places of origin, and set about electing a new Rada and a new President, who will sign the articles of capitulation (to be imposed unilaterally if they fail to accomplish the elections in the time allotted; no benefit for dragging feet). If they want to rebuild, they can dream up loan proposals with what capital assets they have remaining, as collateral.
I.e., no more screwing around for a phantom Ukrainian "victory." Fuck the EU. Fuck the Deep State. Just a dead stop to the warfare. And, oh by the way, the U.S. gets to do some peacekeeping and ground investigation (with the Russians) over the matters of biowarfare laboratories and the pestholes of human trafficking and children abattoirs. (With all the current exhilaration on secret files finally being opened, it is more than timely for the Ukrainian genocide against the Donbass to be exposed for what it was. I am endlessly irked at this huge matter being glossed over like a tarpaulin over a road crater.)
I don't have the remotest expectation that this will happen, but it is what cries out to me as a rational and definitive "peace process."
