I confirm the 2023 peace-treaty plan that was leaked to the FT.
What the draft envisaged:
- Russia withdraws its troops from most of the four oblasts it had just declared “annexed.”
- The new line of demarcation runs roughly along the line as of February 24, 2022: Crimea and the part of Donbas that Russia controlled before the full-scale invasion.
- Ukraine recognizes Russian control over Crimea.
- Ukraine grants Russia an unobstructed land corridor to Crimea.
- The ceasefire regime is guaranteed by NATO countries that provide protection for Ukraine.
- Russia begins negotiations with the US on its own security guarantees.
From my side, I’ll add a few insider details that few people know about.
The plan was discussed NOT ONLY by Rodnyansky: the key figure was ABRAMOVICH.
Moreover, Russia was ready to give up the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant as well. And the 300 billion in frozen assets was to go toward rebuilding all of Ukraine, that is, together with the occupied territories.
As for Crimea: we were not required to recognize it as Russian, only to recognize Russia’s control over it. In other words, we acknowledge that right now it is under Russian control (which is how it is). We were also required to adopt a law banning the return of Crimea by military means.
The land corridor to Crimea, a highway and a railway, was to be built at Russia’s expense. The hardest question was how to guard it. That is why the Russians were ready to give up Melitopol, but not Tokmak: they feared we would cut the corridor with artillery.
Zelensky rejected this proposal at the time.

Si vous êtes assez honnêtes vous vous posez la question : pourquoi les pays d’Europe détruisent-ils aujourd’hui leurs propres économies pour se battre jusqu’au dernier Ukrainien contre la Russie ? Quel est l’intérêt ?
La réponse est que l’Europe sait que sa richesse s’érode.
Cela dure depuis un siècle. Les pays européens se précipitent follement pour devenir des attractions touristiques. C’est fini.
Pourquoi ? Les Belges n’ont plus le Congo. Les Français n’ont plus la moitié de l’Afrique. Les Britanniques n’ont plus l’Inde. Les Japonais n’ont plus l’Asie du Sud-Est. Ils ne les ont plus. Et ils ne les récupéreront pas.
Mais s’ils pouvaient vaincre la Russie, ils auraient à leur disposition le plus grand pays du monde par la géographie. La Russie est immense. Et ils pourraient la découper en petits morceaux. Vous savez, comme ils ont découpé le Moyen-Orient en Bahreïn, au Koweït et tous ces tout petits pays qu’ils peuvent ensuite opposer les uns aux autres.
C’est le dernier souffle d’un nouveau colonialisme qui pourrait les sauver.
Dans un contexte où les discours officiels européens et occidentaux multiplient les appels à «tenir jusqu’au bout» face à la Russie, l’économiste Richard D. Wolff pose une question simple, presque dérangeante : pourquoi l’Europe accepterait-elle de détruire volontairement sa propre économie pour un conflit qui ne sert manifestement pas les intérêts de ses populations ?
Sa réponse est directe. L’Europe traverse un déclin relatif de longue date.
Privée de ses empires coloniaux (Congo, Afrique francophone, Inde, Asie du Sud-Est…), elle n’a plus les leviers de puissance qui ont fondé sa richesse pendant des siècles.
Ses industries s’essoufflent face à la montée des États-Unis et de la Chine. De nombreux pays européens glissent vers une économie de services et de tourisme. Dans ce contexte, la Russie représente, selon Wolff, une ultime opportunité : le plus grand pays du monde par sa superficie, riche en ressources, qui pourrait être fragmenté et mis sous influence, à la manière dont le Moyen-Orient a été découpé au XXe siècle en entités facilement manipulables.
Cette lecture explique la ténacité du soutien européen à l’Ukraine et la rhétorique hostile envers Moscou.
Il ne s’agit pas seulement d’une défense de principes ou d’une réaction à l’invasion de 2022, mais d’une tentative de «dernier souffle» néocolonial pour retarder le déclin.
Les populations européennes, elles, en paient le prix par l’inflation énergétique, la désindustrialisation et des budgets militaires qui grèvent les services publics.
L’Europe, confrontée à un monde multipolaire où sa place relative diminue, semble préférer une stratégie de confrontation et de réarmement plutôt qu’une redéfinition réaliste de ses relations avec la Russie et l’Asie.

I’m so desperately opposed to a war with Russia that I keep pushing Ukraine further up the escalation ladder.
I provide them with intelligence and weapons to target not just military sites, but civilian infrastructure in Russia, Crimea, and Donbas too.
Naturally, I maintain a dignified silence whenever civilians are killed by Ukrainian forces or the Ukrainian army commits war crimes. Apparently, some civilian lives are more equal than others.
Meanwhile, my ambassador keeps poking the Russian bear with empty promises about Ukraine joining NATO. Because nothing says “de-escalation” quite like waving a red flag in front of a nuclear power.
But no, no, no — I absolutely do NOT want war. I’m merely steering Germany straight toward another one, despite most Germans having no appetite for it.
After all, peace is wonderful, but have you seen Rheinmetall’s profit margins?
Never again? Sure. Unless the shareholders need another record quarter.

🤡😂Ursula von der Leyen (LIAR) has just delivered a delusional speech at the European Parliament: "The migration chaos in Europe is being orchestrated by Russia and Belarus!"
"Their goal is clear: to overwhelm the authorities and sow fear!" 🤦🏻♂️
Yet it is the EU itself that is orchestrating this mass influx of migrants—through the Schengen Area, the Migration Pact, its pro-immigration directives, and the destruction of our national borders!
MD retweeted
Unbelievable hypocrisy. This Eurocrat-Commissar-dictator has forced many European countries to import hundreds of thousands, even millions of migrants from outside the EU in recent years.
And now she says it was Russia forcing such damaging policies on Europe.

For years, the establishment has told us that immigration is a good thing and has attacked as “far-right” those Europeans who disagreed.
Now, that same establishment is telling us immigration is a weapon being used against us.
These tyrannical bureaucrats are not on our side.
First they told us mass immigration was because of 'war, persecution & climate change', now its all Russias fault...YE LITERALLY INVITED THE WORLD OVER WITH FREEBIES ye absolute headbangers @EUCouncil

🚨VON DER LEYEN ACCUSE LA RUSSIE D’UTILISER LA MIGRATION COMME ARME 🔥
Ursula von der Leyen a accusé la Russie d’utiliser la migration de masse comme une arme contre l’Europe. La sorcière de Bruxelles affirme que la Russie pousse des migrants vers les frontières européennes pour répandre la peur et semer la division.
Elle veut donc nous faire croire que la Russie est responsable des migrants qui inondent l’Europe, et non elle, ni Angela Merkel, ni Macron, ni Merz, ni Sánchez.
La manœuvre est classique. Après avoir confirmé un trou de 70 milliards pour l’Ukraine en 2027 que l’UE doit pallier, après avoir exigé que Musk restaure Starlink immédiatement, von der Leyen désigne maintenant la Russie comme responsable de la migration de masse vers l’Europe.
Elle externalise la faute vers Moscou plutôt que vers les politiques d’accueil menées depuis des années par Bruxelles et les gouvernements européens. Trump, lui, a déclaré que la France brûle à cause de l’immigration de personnes venues d’un monde différent et a prévenu que Paris deviendrait très bientôt une ville musulmane.
Von der Leyen pointe la Russie. Les frontières sont restées ouvertes. 2027 fermera le robinet.#VonDerLeyen #Migration #Russie #Ukraine #Macron #2027 #France

🇪🇺🇷🇺 Ursula von der Leyen afferma che la RUSSIA STA USANDO LA MIGRAZIONE DI MASSA come arma contro l'EUROPA
La numero uno dell'UE accusa la Russia di spingere deliberatamente i migranti verso i confini europei per mettere in difficoltà le autorità, diffondere paura e dividere il continente.
Ora richiede nuovi poteri di emergenza per gestire tali situazioni.
Per anni, Bruxelles ha difeso la migrazione e l'asilo come parte integrante dei valori europei.
Oggi avverte che governi ostili possono sfruttare quegli stessi sistemi per destabilizzare l'Europa.
Assolutamente ridicolo. E rivela piuttosto chiaramente chi c'è, in realtà, dietro tutto questo...

🚨 BREAKING: In a stunning display of absurdity, Ursula von der Leyen is now blaming Russia and Belarus for "weaponizing migration" and engineering mass movements to divide Europe.🚨
The blatant hypocrisy is unreal—the EU has spent years forcing mass immigration mandates onto its own member states, yet now wants to scapegoat external adversaries for the exact crisis they created themselves.

I'm old enough to remember Ukraine before February 2022. Before the great PR makeover. Before billions in British public money started flowing. Before the swastikas were quietly airbrushed out of the picture and yesterday's neo-Nazi problem became today's inconvenient history.
Back in January 2015, Ross Kemp travelled to Ukraine for his Extreme World documentary series, investigating the rise of the far right and the Azov Battalion, including its neo-Nazi elements and symbolism.
This was British mainstream television, not Russian propaganda.
Funny how quickly history gets rewritten when the geopolitical interests change and the public chequebook comes out.
Of course, Ukraine's corruption, extremist movements and internal divisions didn't magically disappear in February 2022. But suddenly, mentioning what British journalists had openly reported for years was enough to get you branded a Kremlin sympathiser.
Well, here's Ross Kemp reporting from Ukraine in 2015, long before the political rebranding.
No Russian bots. No Kremlin script. Just the history they would rather you didn't remember.

🚨🪖🇷🇸🇷🇺 Il presidente serbo Aleksandar Vucic alla giornalista russa Ksenia Sobchak: "Penso di non essere né stupido né cieco. Se non vedete, se non vedete come si sta armando l’Europa, allora state semplicemente facendo finta di non vederlo. E perché si sta armando? A quale scopo? È come nei drammi di Čechov: se nel primo atto c’è un fucile appeso alla parete, nel terzo atto quel fucile sparerà. Conosco una persona della Rheinmetall. I tedeschi hanno compiuto progressi straordinari in questo settore industriale. È una persona molto intelligente. Hanno aumentato i loro profitti di diciassette volte. Non del 17%, ma di diciassette volte. La gente lavora, costruiscono una fabbrica dopo l’altra. È positivo per l’economia, soprattutto quando si hanno problemi nell’industria automobilistica. Ma queste non sono le ragioni principali. L’Europa, dicendo “dobbiamo difenderci dalla Russia” e pensando al futuro, si sta riarmando in maniera impressionante. Chi è che non lo vede? Non lo so. È talmente evidente. Se ne vantano persino. Anche noi, come piccolo Paese, ci vantiamo dei nostri progressi e li sottolineiamo, ma non ci paragoniamo alle grandi potenze. Ci limitiamo a osservare quello che stanno facendo. Diventano sempre più forti, sempre più potenti. Investono somme enormi. Guardate quanto stanno investendo i Paesi scandinavi, la Svezia e tutti gli altri".
Sobchak: "Quindi, secondo lei, scoppierà una guerra mondiale?".
Vucic: "Sarà un miracolo se non scoppierà. Sarei l’uomo più felice del mondo se mi sbagliassi. Ma temo di non sbagliarmi".
