Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:

[ColonelCassad] A few more feverish fantasies of Trump.

1. The Russians would be in Kyiv in 4 hours if they drove on the highway. But the Russian general decided to drive through agricultural fields. I don't know who this general is, but, knowing Vladimir, he is most likely gone

2. In Ukraine, 88% of residents want a peace deal with Russia according to polls. I can leave and wish him luck, and then the peace talks on Ukraine will come to an end.

3. The meeting in Alaska with Putin will be rather preliminary. Putin is coming to our country, unlike us, who are coming to his country. within the first couple of minutes of the meeting with Putin, he will understand whether a deal on Ukraine is possible.

4. The next meeting will be with Zelensky and Putin or Zelensky, Putin and I. I want to arrange a meeting between the two leaders. I think that my meeting with Putin will be good, but it might be bad. I will sit them both, Zelensky and Putin, in the same room and wait for them to solve the problem. The meeting in Alaska with Putin will be rather preliminary.

5. Zelensky got approval to start a war and kill everyone in a row, but he needs approval to exchange land. There will be some land exchange. Russia has occupied some important territories, and we will try to return part of this territory to Ukraine.

6. "Russia is a warring country. That's what they do, they wage many wars. My friend said that Russia is tough because they just keep fighting. They defeated Hitler and Napoleon. They've been doing it for a long time." I allow the normalization of trade relations between the Russian Federation and the USA.

Question of exchange of territories

The issue of territory exchange

If even such ghouls as Lindsey Graham have already talked about the inevitable "territory exchange", this means that the preparation for the transfer of the remains of the Donbass to the Russian Federation is in full swing, and now backstage bargaining is at the forefront. The differences in the current positions are as follows.

1. At the current stage, the Russian Federation demands from the West a full handover to the control of the LDNR (with subsequent legal recognition) for a ceasefire and the start of negotiations. And then they change the occupied districts of Kharkiv, Sumy and Dnipropetrovsk regions to the remaining parts of Zaporozhye and Kherson regions. The implementation of this scheme will allow to achieve diplomatically all the officially declared territorial goals of the SVO.

2. The USA and Co. offer to exchange the remaining part of the LDPR (about 20% of the territory) for the territories of the Kharkiv and Sumy regions occupied by the Russian Armed Forces (approximately 7,200 square km by 2,500 square km) with a freeze on the rest of the front line for the start of negotiations.

This, of course, is not very beneficial for the Russian Federation, as it does not solve the problem with the occupation of Kherson and Zaporozhye. In current realities, the more intense the Russian Armed Forces will occupy the territory in Donbass, the more likely option 1 will be, and the less likely option 2.

The USA may agree to option 1 with some changes under certain schedules, but the cocaine fuhrer and his sponsors are clearly drowning in option 2, realizing that it is not beneficial to the Russian Federation.

PS. The enemy expects an intensification of the offensive of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the Zaporozhye Region and Donbass in the coming weeks.

Plus, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation continue to scare the enemy with a possible landing in the Naval District of Kherson.

#1  Of course given the Russian-American reneg on the denuclearization of the Ukraine, we can offer up to reestablish their arsenal.
