Has Zelensky turned Putin’s worst nightmare into reality? While Putin is afraid to leave Russia and has even reduced meetings with his own officials, Ukraine’s president is working on other diplomatic fronts. After a tour of Middle Eastern countries, he recently visited Turkey and then Syria. In a country...

The syrian pivot: how putin’s investment became Ukraine’s strategic hub. I would pay anything to be a fly on the wall in the Kremlin when putin sees this footage. Man, if you told me two years ago that Bashar al-Assad would be hiding in a Moscow basement while the newguy in Damascus, Ahmed al-Sharaa, was out here cutting deals with President Zelenskyy, I would’ve said you’re dreaming. putin spent a decade—and a terrifying amount of Russian blood and treasure—bombing Syria into submission just to keep a "loyal" puppet in power and secure those Mediterranean military bases. And now? The new government is basically using those very same ports—the ones putin thought were his permanent "Southern Flank"—to help Ukraine move grain. It’s peak irony. The "Grand Strategist" in Moscow basically cleared the path for a government that’s now cozying up to his biggest adversary. It’s a masterclass in how quickly putin’s "influence" evaporates. Putin thought he bought Syria forever. Instead he just subsidised the infrastructure for the next administration to move on without him. Seeing al-Sharaa talk about "stability" while facilitating Ukrainian trade must feel like a slow-motion slap in the face to every "Z-patriot" back in Russia. Ahmed al-Sharaa: “This is a great success achieved for the stability of Syria. There is a historical partnership between Syria and Ukraine in the fields of food and energy. Ukraine has great experience in agricultural production and the pharmaceutical industry. Syria is also an agricultural country and needs these skills. Our main goal is to create a hub where food and basic materials from Ukraine can be re-exported through Syrian ports. Turkey contributes greatly to global and regional stability through initiatives like this forum. Turkey's role has now reached a global dimension. The Syria-Turkey partnership is the foundation for the future security of the region and the world. Syria has ceased to be a crisis and has turned into a historical opportunity for reconstruction and stability.”

The visit of President Zelenskyy to Syria on April 5, 2026, is, without exaggeration, historic. It is the first visit by a President of Ukraine to Damascus - the capital of a country that until recently was a key Russian ally in the Middle East. In June 2022, after Syria recognized the "independence" of the Russian-occupied territories of the so-called "DPR" and "LPR" and supported Russia’s military aggression against Ukraine, Ukraine severed diplomatic relations with Syria and imposed an embargo. Following the fall of Bashar al-Assad’s regime in September 2025, Ukraine and Syria signed a joint communiqué on restoring diplomatic relations. President Zelenskyy’s visit to Syria on April 5, 2026, demonstrates the final loss of Russian influence in the region after the collapse of Assad’s regime. This is not just a bilateral visit, but the final stage of a regional tour that began in late March. President Zelenskyy visited Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, and Jordan - reaching concrete agreements in both defense and economic spheres. Visits to Turkey, and then Syria, logically complete this arc. The sequence Ankara-Damascus is highly symbolic. President Erdoğan is the key external patron of Syria’s new authorities. President Zelenskyy effectively arrived in Damascus with Turkish backing, significantly increasing the status and credibility of the visit. A Ukraine-Turkey-Syria axis is now taking shape. Turkey acts as the central mediator in this trilateral format, strengthening stability in both the Black Sea and Mediterranean regions. ◾️ Security dimension Syria seeks stability. Ukraine is a unique partner: it has real experience countering Russian and Iranian expansion, while not being a NATO member. ◾️ Energy dimension In particular, discussions include a Qatar-Turkey-Europe gas pipeline project aimed at diversifying Europe’s gas supplies and reducing dependence on Russia. ◾️ Diplomatic dimension vis-à-vis Russia While trilateral talks between Ukraine, the United States, and Russia are on hold due to hostilities in the Middle East, Ukraine is building an alternative architecture of influence - regional partners capable of exerting economic and diplomatic pressure on Moscow. ◾️ Food security and reconstruction Ukraine has reaffirmed its role as a reliable grain supplier to Syria under the Grain from Ukraine and Food from Ukraine initiatives. Discussions also include the reconstruction of Syrian infrastructure, particularly in the energy and industrial sectors. 📹: Apro-Ukraine rally in Idlib, Syria, opposing Syrian normalization with Russia, October 2025/ Thomas van Linge

Trump gives an update on the Russia/Ukraine peace negotiations! He believes “Russia is ready”, and that they “have a deal”, now they just have to get Zelensky to agree. He confirms that Putin has been easier to deal with than Zelensky. In other words, Zelensky is dragging his feet, because he does not want to lose power. Zelensky is continuing to delay the end of this war, because once this war is over, Zelensky is a dead man, and he knows it.

Zelensky arrives in some country, and I see that for the first time he is being welcomed with honors. What country is this? Oh, it’s Syria, ruled by a terrorist. A terrorist is always a brother to another terrorist. And do you know why Zelensky came? To sell drones to Syria. I hope the foolish Western world understands what is happening right under its nose and what this will ultimately lead to.

🇷🇺 ZELENSKY RESPONDS!! “THIS WILL NOT WORK OUT FOR PUTIN!” Zelensky slams Putin’s remarks, calling them manipulative and accusing Russia of stalling for time. He claims Putin is too afraid to speak directly to Trump and is trying to drag out the war while pretending to negotiate. He insists Ukraine is ready for a real ceasefire but demands strict verification to prevent Russia from using it to rearm and mobilize. According to Zelensky, the only way to stop Putin is with sanctions and military pressure.

Watching Trump talk about Putin’s intentions for Ukraine is like a Helsinki redux. He just doesn’t get it. Putin has never changed his demands and they amount to Ukraine surrendering its own country. Trump saying Russia wants Ukraine to succeed was so absurd that even Zelensky had to crack a smile. Will there be peace? Hope so! But we have to get much tougher on Russia to get it.

So, Trump refused to sign the “prosperity plan” with Zelensky. Zelensky acted like everything was fine, but it clearly isn’t. He’s being pushed into compromises while his corrupt cash-based system is being dismantled and power is slipping to Soros-linked groups in Ukraine. NABU has gone after the officials who handled the money for under-the-table salaries for his members of parliament to vote what he needs. If Zelensky refuses compromises, those groups will strike a deal with the White House, push him out using corruption scandals, and sell Ukraine on the worst terms. The only thing Zelensky has left is foreign policy. And he’s using it to attack Europe - which likely means Europe has also turned away from him. #Ukraine #Peace #Trump

Putin is only set on presenting the meeting with Trump as his victory' - Zelensky is furious that he was not taken to Alaska.

He is a Kurdish separatist and if he visits Turkey, he is expected to be arrested immediately. @EdGewran , the leader of the Partiya Kurdistanî party, is an expression of everything Turkey fears, and for which it went to change the regime in Syria, and will likely launch a large-scale operation in the north of the country. In an interview with the International Hour on כאן חדשות | רשת ב, he tells me: 'If Israel allows Turkey to defeat the Kurds in Syria, it will be next in line.' To listen to the interview in Hebrew:

For those of you listening to these clips without any context and thinking that Zelensky did anything wrong, here’s the context you’re missing: 0:00 - 0:25 – Zelensky starts off by explaining to Vance that, no, he can’t just sign a ceasefire agreement with Putin like Ukraine has done in the past—because Putin has repeatedly broken those agreements. Putin previously promised not to invade Ukraine and to release prisoners, yet he never released the prisoners and, of course, went on to invade Ukraine. For Vance to be so naïve as to think that another signature from Putin would mean anything is purely ignorant. 0:25 - 0:38 – Vance claims Zelensky is being “disrespectful” for simply explaining why he can’t trust Putin’s word. He says it’s "disrespectful" for Zelensky to "come to the Oval Office to litigate" the matter publicly. What else is he supposed to do? Just nod along and accept a deal that would set Ukraine up for failure? 0:41 - 0:46 – Vance tells Zelensky he should be thanking the President. Let’s be clear—Zelensky has already thanked Trump multiple times over the past 40 days, even after Trump blatantly lied and claimed that Ukraine started the war. So let’s talk about actual disrespect—who exactly is the one being disrespectful here? 1:03 - 1:10 – Vance accuses Zelensky of coming to the Oval Office to attack the Trump administration. But there was no attack. Zelensky was simply explaining why Trump’s idea of signing a flimsy, unenforceable deal with Russia makes no sense, given that Putin has broken almost every agreement he has ever signed. That’s not an attack on Trump—it’s a reality check. 1:15 - 1:34 – Zelensky explains that during a war, "everybody has problems, even you." Trump loses it, snapping back, "You don’t know that. Don’t tell us what we are going to feel." But let’s be real—America has absolutely felt the effects of this war. Higher gas prices Increased inflation Over $100 billion in U.S. aid sent to Ukraine Political infighting over the war More U.S. troops stationed in Europe Depleting U.S. weapons stockpiles Zelensky is 100% right—but for some reason, Trump completely lost it and is now trying to paint Zelensky as the disrespectful one? This was pure theater. It was a staged act by Trump to vilify Zelensky. The only real disrespect in that room was directed at Zelensky himself.

US Vice President J.D. Vance made a sharp statement warning Russia that it will be "very bad" for them if they do not actively engage in "good-faith" negotiations on Ukraine. According to Vance, Trump believes the conflict harms everyone – Russia, Ukraine, and America – and is dissatisfied that Russia allegedly is not sufficiently committed to a peaceful resolution. "And here is what I will say about the president: he is keenly responsive to the reality on the ground. And the reality is this: first, we have conducted incredibly good-faith negotiations with both the Russians and the Ukrainians. And I believe the president is becoming increasingly impatient with the Russians because he feels they are not offering enough to end the war. That is first. Second, the president is increasingly convinced that this war is bad for Russia. You constantly hear this from me. You constantly hear this from the president. The war is bad for Russia. It is bad for Ukraine. It is bad for America. We want the killings to stop. That remains the president's position. But the president can also look at the reality on the ground. He sees economic indicators coming from Eastern Europe. He sees the number of casualties, both Russian and Ukrainian, in this war. And the president tells Vladimir Putin that it is time to stop the killings. He would say this to Zelensky as well, and essentially has said this to Zelensky. He wants this war to end, and he is doing everything possible to stop it. But listen, if the Russians refuse to negotiate in good faith, I think it will be very, very bad for their country. That is what the president has made clear. This is not a change of position. This is an acknowledgment of the reality on the ground. We will continue to fight for peace every day in the Trump administration." They are losing and are desperate to pressure Russia to agree to Minsk 3. What they don’t say is - Russia gave their terms in summer of 2024 and their position has never changed, as such accept and fulfill Russia’s conditions and the war will end .

🇹🇷🇸🇾‼️🚨 Assad’s fault the conflict escalated? In July Erdogan tried to come close to Assad and invited him for possible talks to restore relations any time: “I have already called on Mr. Assad for a visit to Turkey or a meeting in a third country and I have instructed my foreign minister on this matter. We want to start a new process by overcoming this resentment.” ‼️ Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham (splinter branch of Al Qaeda) rebels, who started an offensive now, were angry! HTS in Idlib were burning Turkish flags in dissatisfaction with Erdogan plan to restart diplomatic relations with Assad. -> But Assad decided not to go down this path and refused to start talks with Erdogan, unless Erdogan abides by his conditions of fully sovereignty and retreats from Syria fully. Which essentially is impossible before talks, but could have been part of the agreement. Erdogan said: "The door is open to Assad but their approach is important. Assad wants Türkiye out of Northern Syria. This is out of the question. We are fighting terrorism there.” The important part is, that Assad decided not to open a diplomatic path with Erdogan. -> Now Erdogan decided to actually escalate and enforce either talks, or remove Assad. Assad was able to establish good relations with other Arab states and join the Arab league again, the last bit he missed is the normalized of relations with Turkey. It’s a shame Assad did not do that, Russia and Iran were pressuring Assad to make peace. It is rumored that Bashar is emotional and upset with Erdogan, so he was waiting for him to go and wanted to make peace with the next president. Assad and Erdogan were close, they even went on family vacations together and Bashar never forgave Erdogan that he turned on him that much. ‼️ Now … whenever you want to blame Assad or not, likely he could have averted the current escalation by meeting Erdogan and working on a peace plan, with a slow withdrawal of Turkey from Syria.

Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa on Trump and Lebanon: President Trump expressed his displeasure with what is currently happening in Lebanon and was looking for ways to stop the war in Lebanon. He then said that there could be a role for Syria in Lebanon in the search for a security solution. The statement was interpreted as if Syrian forces would enter Lebanon the next morning, and that is not what was meant. From President Trump’s statement, the answer is that he was expressing frustration with what is happening in Lebanon and looking for other solutions, and that there could be a positive role for Syria through the Lebanese state and Lebanese institutions.

🇹🇷🇺🇦 Erdogan Betrays Putin as Turkey Turns Toward Kyiv According to The New York Times, Turkey is increasingly helping Ukraine expand its influence in the Middle East and has strengthened its position in Syria following the fall of Bashar al-Assad — a region where Russia's influence has notably declined. Ankara is no longer making much effort to appear balanced between Russia and NATO. Moscow may have helped create this situation itself. As Putin remains focused on the war in Ukraine and failed to protect one of his key regional allies, Turkey — a long-time supplier of Bayraktar drones to Kyiv — has moved to fill the vacuum and establish itself as a major regional power. The partnership the Kremlin once proudly showcased appears to be fading fast.

JD Vance: the U.S. has finally received details of Russia’s and Ukraine’s demands, and a peace agreement does not necessarily have to be fully prepared before a face-to-face meeting between Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky. According to Vance, the White House now has “details” to work with. He argued that the “lion’s share” of responsibility for Ukraine’s security guarantees should fall on Europe, while the U.S. will not commit until it is clear what exactly is required to end the conflict. Vance also spoke about his interactions with the presidents of Russia and Ukraine. He described Vladimir Putin as “very calculating” and softer in conversation than commonly perceived. At his last meeting with Zelensky, Vance joked: “Mr. President, as long as you behave, I won’t say anything.” Zelensky simply smiled — “a nice little way to break the ice,” Vance said. The Vice President added that European leaders at the White House meeting had tried to dissuade Trump from calling Putin immediately, but Trump brushed aside bureaucracy and diplomatic protocol to “get things done.”
