Trump Truce Crumbles, Moscow Warns Kiev; US-Russia Riyadh Talks Stuck, UK Military Turns On Starmer (Alexander Mercouris)

The video covers the truce talks and the prospect of restarting the Black Sea grain deal, which is unlikely. While they are talking peace the differences between what the Russians want and what the Ukrainians will settle for are too great. Events on the ground will likely play out before any deal is reached. What should happen is for the Ukrainians to stand down, demilitarise and let the Russians claim the East of the country.

Further information from the Russian side is hinting at taking over the Odessa region if the present terms they have on the table are not taken up. 

In the UK the military appears to be subtly questioning the practicality of sending a small detachment into a war that has hundreds of thousands of combatants.
