An interesting exchange between US Rep. Adam Smith and Secretary Hegseth: Rep. Adam Smith: On Ukraine, a year-plus ago, your advice, the president’s advice, was that Ukraine had no cards to play and should cut the best possible deal it could. Clearly, that was wrong. What did you miss?...

“Looks like he (Zelenskyy) had a couple cards to play, 'cause Ukraine is actually winning against Russia” - Rep Adam smith (D-WA-9) - Rep. Adam Smith “And I'll close just by saying one of the other ironies of this, of course, is we have a great example in the world right now of what our strategy should be and where our values should be, and that's Ukraine. And I'm really curious. You know, here we are, we roll out the red carpet for Vladimir Putin. We belittle and insult President Zelenskyy in the White House. He has no cards, right? Well, here we are a year after that. Looks like he had a couple cards to play, 'cause Ukraine is actually winning against Russia. Ukraine, a sovereign democracy standing up against a brutal, oppressive, coercive dictatorship, and we can't even bring ourselves on a consistent basis to say, "We are with Ukraine, and we are against what Putin is doing," and stand up and support them. So I wanna see that strategy to meet the complex threat environment that we have” The House Armed Services Committee is receiving testimony from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan Caine on the Department of Defense FY27 budget request.

[Q]: The attacks in the past couple days that Russia staged against Ukraine shows that President Putin isn't serious about peace. What is your reaction to that? President Trump: No, he's very serious. I believe Ukraine has made some very strong attacks also. And I don't say that negatively. I think you probably have to. There have been some explosions in various parts of Russia. And it looks to me like, I don't know, I don't think it came from the Congo. I don't think it came from the United States of America. It possibly came from Ukraine, but I haven't asked that question. Maybe I won't bother asking. No, they're fighting a war. (Comment from me: Ukraine is defending, Russia is attacking. That's the difference)

REP. BACON: President Trump wants to negotiate settlement between Ukraine and Russia, acting like referee in boxing match, but that’s not the case. There’s good versus evil here. Russia invading Ukraine, bombing cities every night. America should be unashamedly on the right side — the side of democracy, the side of Ukraine, country that wants to align with us. Russia hates us. Putin hates United States, hates what we stand for. I don’t know why President Trump can’t see that. I’ve waited year and a half in this Congress to get something done on Ukraine, and we’ve done nothing. There have been no votes, no policies from the leadership here or from President to support a country that is fighting for its life. I agree that Ukraine has the upper hand right now, but Russia is bombing those cities every night, and we should be there to help them defend against these ballistic missile attacks. Actions speak louder than words.

Question: Trump said he had a really good call with President Putin yesterday. Will Russia be aiding us in this conflict and can you share anything on that? Hegseth: I was not on it, but those that were said it was a strong call, reaffirming hopefully the opportunity for some for some peace in Russia, Ukraine and also a recognition that as it pertains to this conflict, they should not be involved.

"So, Vladimir... it looks like you've missed your chance in Ukraine." - Really? How so? - Well, I was very determined to give you half, but now the Ukrainians are planning to retake the entire territory. - And who will help them? You? - Of course not! It will be the Europeans!" The American show "Puppets" has delved into the European desire to retake Ukraine. So it turns out everyone in the West understands perfectly well that the war in Ukraine is a war between the West and Russia for Ukraine! And here I am trying to prove it to you, I think people don't understand... But how much clamor about Russian aggression! Tell me, what do the US and Europe have to do with Ukraine if it's Russian soil? They installed the clown Zelensky, spent billions of dollars to bring Nazis to power in Ukraine and take Ukraine from Russia. They came to Ukraine and entered a war with Russia, declaring their intention to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia. But Russia is still the aggressor.

🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦TRUMP: I BELIEVE PUTIN WANTS PEACE. IT'S MUCH EASIER TO NEGOTIATE WITH RUSSIA THAN WITH UKRAINE. WE HAVE GOOD RELATIONS WITH RUSSIA. I believe Putin, everything is fine with Russia and me. But now they are bombing Ukraine hard. To be honest, it is more difficult for me with Ukraine, and they have no trump cards (c) Donald Trump Trump negatively answered the question about whether Russia is "taking advantage" of the US pause in providing weapons and intelligence to Ukraine Trump, when asked why he does not give Ukraine weapons for self-defense: because I do not see that they will conclude a peace agreement. If they do not want to conclude a deal, then we will not participate in the supplies. Something has to happen on Iran soon. I hope we can make a deal - Trump ❗️ We will "leave" Ukraine if it does not want a settlement of the conflict - Trump "I'm not sure Ukraine wants to negotiate. I want Ukraine to calm down! Money is what comes first for me," Trump emphasized. ❗️Putin did not want to start a conflict in Ukraine — Trump Europe has no idea how to end the conflict in Ukraine, Trump believes. ❗️The United States will cut off aid to Ukraine if Kiev is not ready for a settlement, Trump promised

‼️JUST NOW — powerful brief remarks by the leaders of Ukraine, the UK, France, and Germany in London: IN SHORT: Merz: “The coming days could be decisive for all of us. The destiny of this country is the destiny of Europe. Nobody should doubt our support for Ukraine. And this is what we are firmly standing behind. I'm skeptical about some of the details which we are seeing in the documents coming from the U.S. side.” Macron: "I think we have a lot of cards in our hands." Zelenskyy: "Our team came back, and I think that they will brief us about the last talks with Americans and after talks of Americans with Russians." Starmer: "If there's to be a ceasefire, it needs to be a just and lasting ceasefire. Matters about Ukraine are for Ukraine." FULL STATEMENTS: UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer: "But the principles remain, the principles that we've operated on for a very, very long time, which is that we stand with Ukraine, and if there's to be a ceasefire, it needs to be a just and lasting ceasefire. And that's why it's so important, that we repeatedly set out the principle forward that matters about Ukraine are for Ukraine. And we stand here to support you in the conflict and support you in the negotiations and make sure that this is a just and lasting settlement if we can get that far. You're very welcome for our discussions". President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy: "Thank you very much, Kir. Thank you for organizing this meeting. Thank you, friends, Emmanuel and Friedrich, and thank you for our joint meeting. I think that it is very important now to organize such a meeting and discuss very sensitive issues regarding these talks that we had, in the United States and between us. Our team came back, and I think that they will brief us about the last talks with Americans and after talks of Americans with Russians. I think there are lot of what we have to discuss and speak about. So there are a lot of things which are very important for today. I think, unity between Europe and Ukraine, and also unity between Europe, Ukraine, and the U.S. There are some things which we can't manage without Americans, things which we can't manage without Europe, and that's why we need to make some important decisions". President of France Emmanuel Macron: "And thank you Volodymyr for being with us. You are always welcome. In France, I think we all support Ukraine, and we all support peace. And peace negotiations to have sustainable, robust peace. And I think we have a lot of cards in our hands. The financing and the quality of equipments and training programs to Ukraine, the fact that Ukraine is resisting in this war, and the fact that the Russian economy is starting to suffer, especially after our latest sanctions and the US sanctions. And now I think the main issue is the convergence between our common positions, Europeans and Ukrainians, and the U.S. to finalize these, peace negotiations and re-engage in a new phase in the best possible conditions for Ukraine, for the Europeans, and for our collective security". Chancellor of Germany Friedrich Merz: "I highly appreciate that we are having the opportunity to see you, Volodymyr, together with Emmanuel, and talking about the upcoming days, because this could be a decisive time for all of us. We are trying to continue our support for Ukraine, as you know. On the other hand, we are seeing these talks and negotiations in Moscow and in the U.S. I'm looking forward to hear from you what the outcome of these talks might be. And we are still and remain strongly behind Ukraine and giving support to your country, because we all know that the destiny of this country is the destiny of Europe. So that's the reason why we are here, trying to figure out what we can do. And nobody should doubt on our support for Ukraine. And this is what we are firmly standing behind. And the outcome is open. I'm skeptical about some of the details which we are seeing in the documents coming from the U.S. side, but we have to talk about that. That's why we are here".

Of course, the Mexicans are not so crazy to do it, but the Ukrainians are, I'm sorry to say. Jeffrey Sachs: My view is completely different, which is that if you're Ukraine, you be different, which is that if you're Ukraine, you be neutral, and it's your neutrality that protects you, protects Europe, and protects Russia. It's what's called indivisible security. A neutral Ukraine is the safest possible thing for Ukraine to start with but it also protects Europe. It also protects Russia.

Rep. Keating to Rubio: "I'm sure you're aware that Ukraine, country that at the time had third-largest nuclear arsenal, peacefully turned over their nuclear weapons in conjunction with Budapest Memorandum. And in exchange for U.S. commitment to defend Ukraine if it ever came under threat. The U.S. gave its word to Ukraine that it would defend them. And I find this amazing. In your opening remarks, as you took us all over the world and mentioned 15 different incidents where you have interceded — 15, the top 15 — not once did you mention Ukraine when you were prioritizing achievements that are there."
