Gen. Roman Polko claims Trump’s meeting with Putin is a sham, urging Ukraine’s surrender.
Russian Front Breakthrough
According to the latest intel from the Deep State analysis center, Russian forces have breached the front line near Dobropil in Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine. Gen. Roman Polko emphasizes that this is no real breakthrough and merely reflects Moscow’s intensified attacks, attempting to expand its control and showcase initiative to the world.
Trump’s Negotiation of Ukraine’s Capitulation
Polko says Trump continues to attend the great powers’ concert while effectively negotiating Ukraine’s surrender, stating that Ukraine has no real significance to the former U.S. president.
Alaska Summit and Lack of Concrete Agreements
On August 15, during his second term, Trump will meet with Vladimir Putin in Alaska to discuss, among other matters, the war in Ukraine. So far, such talks have yielded no concrete outcomes regarding Ukraine.
Polko’s Skepticism of American Diplomacy
Polko argues that even if Russia signs a ceasefire, it will likely not adhere to it, citing repeated violations by Putin and expressing hope that a “second Yalta” will not occur.
Ukraine’s Absence from the Summit
The general is concerned that Ukraine and EU representatives are excluded from the summit—a blunder, he claims—and that discussions on peace cannot occur without them.
Reward for the Aggressor?
Polko comments that Putin’s aim of demilitarization and “denazification” of Ukraine is an attempt to render the country a satellite, akin to Belarus.
Potential Compromise on Occupied Territories
He notes that Ukrainian President Zelensky is willing to freeze actions on occupied lands for peace guarantees, but doubts Putin’s adherence to agreements.
