We Told You – Now China Wants Troops In Ukraine As ‘Peacekeepers’

It is rare the world gets to see a glimpse behind the CCP’s green curtain, but we did today. A portion of their agenda is exposed in Europe.

China is being considered for participation in a peacekeeping mission in Ukraine, reports Welt am Sonntag.

Chinese representatives held informal talks in Brussels, exploring how European nations would react to their involvement.

China may take part in peacekeeping missions in Ukraine Chinese representatives have held unofficial talks in Brussels, probing how European countries would react to the idea.

According to diplomats in Brussels, involving China could increase the chances that Russia would agree to the deployment of peacekeeping forces in Ukraine.

China’s entire focus is great power competition, unrestricted warfare against the United States. The purpose of the Ukraine war (enabled by China’s Manchurian Candidate Joe Biden) is to weaken the U.S. militarily, and tie Washington up in a war long-term, to prevent the ‘Asian pivot’.

This is obvious to any critically thinking human being. Those pushing for the ‘Ukraine war’ are either working for China directly, compromised, or simply are not able to clearly see the world.

A Papal Biographer Shills For War With Russia

Earlier this month in The National Catholic Register, Pope John Paul II’s biographer, George Weigel, called Russia, “a modern Moloch, the bloodthirsty Canaanite god against whom the prophets of ancient Israel railed” – in a breathless criticism of President Trump’s Ukrainian peace efforts.

On February 12, 2025, he penned a rant syndicated by The Denver Catholic, the official publication of the Archdiocese of Denver. Titled Russia’s Sacrilegious War on Ukraine, the piece advocated continued war in Ukraine until Russia loses:

There is no happy or just solution to Putin’s aggression that does not end with Putin losing. How that happens is subject to debate. But Putin must lose, both for Ukraine’s sake and for Russia’s…. for America’s sake, and for the world’s.

Weigel has served on the board of the CIA cutout, the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), with Victoria Nuland. His advocacy helped save the organization in 1993, when it was almost (and should have been) shut down at the end of the Cold War.

The Trump administration has suspended funding for NED, and Elon Musk called it an “evil organization [that] needs to be dissolved.”  Arguably, more than any other Washington entity, NED is responsible for inciting civil unrest around the world to serve the purposes of corrupt people.

For over a decade, Weigel has acted as a reliable mouthpiece for NED in its efforts to cause war in Ukraine. Mostly, he has provided a Catholic pretext for awful stuff, based on a tangential association with a long-dead pope.

Whatever its initial intentions – and they were chiefly benevolent – by 2025 NED had become the driving force in a Frankenstein foreign policy that that took its initial design to its rational conclusion: chaos and death.

The details of the Ukraine conflict are rarely covered in the Western media, but they are available to piece together from open sources. In 2010, Ukraine elevated Viktor Yanukovych to president in a democratic election. As reported at the time:

A total of 3,779 observers, including 650 from the Organization of Security and Cooperation in Europe, were dispatched to monitor the election. Ukraine’s presidential election, the fifth since the country regained its independence when the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, was democratic and “organized in a transparent manner,” the OSCE said today in an e-mailed statement.

In 2013, Yanukovych would make the mistake of not signing an association agreement with the European Union and, instead, entertaining a regional economic alliance with Russia. John McCain and other prominent American politicians flew to Kiev to rally support for the EU.

EU Scraps Massive Military Aid Package For Ukraine Thanks to Trump

On Thursday the European Union scrapped its plans to send 40 billion euros in military aid to Ukraine. The move took place as E.U. leaders met at a summit and was influenced by President Donald Trump’s work toward a ceasefire agreement, despite Thursday being host to a Ukrainian drone attack on a Russian nuclear air base.

Named after the E.U.’s foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas, the ‘Kallas plan’ sought to double the union’s military aid to an ambitious 40 billion euros in 2025. It included the purchase of two million artillery rounds for 5 billion euros, an air defense systems, missiles, drones, fighter jets and other lethal and non-lethal equipment valued at 35 billion euros. These ‘gifts’ to Ukraine would have all been delivered by the end of the year.

“…large southern European countries opposed Kallas’ proposal that each member state should contribute ‘their fair share’ relative to GDP. They asked Brussels to find other ways, possibly by incorporating the remaining profits generated by Russia’s frozen assets,” The European Conservative said Friday.

The plan did see significant support from a number of northern E.U. member states however it lacked support from many southern and central member states. France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Hungary and Slovakia opposed the 40 billion euro amount.

“France, Italy and Spain—boasting the largest European economies after Germany—all gave economic and budgetary reasons for not backing the plan this time. They also called for caution against military escalation and suggested it would be a good idea to see how the ongoing U.S.-led peace process turns out,” The European Conservative said.

The disagreements won out, first with the plan being delayed and then eventually canceled all together. A smaller military aid package will still be delivered to Kiev, however.

“…the latest version of the plan will focus solely on delivering the two million artillery rounds this year, which in itself could prove tricky, given that the E.U. failed spectacularly on its previous pledge of delivering half of that amount in 2023,” The European Conservative said.

Kremlin Says Kyiv Hits Russian Gas System In Energy Ceasefire Violation…And Zelenskiy Can’t Be Trusted, But Putin Won’t Strike Ukraine Energy

The Kremlin says Putin’s order to refrain from striking Ukraine’s energy infrastructure remains in effect after Moscow claims Ukraine struck Russian gas facilities in the Kursk region. These facilities were an occupation focus by Ukrainian forces which invaded Kursk last year — a prize to control Russian gas flow to Europe.

The Kremlin also claims that the attack on the Russian gas transit station in Sudzha proves Zelenskiy cannot be trusted.

Ukraine declared the gas station at Sudzha was hit by the Russian side in a provocation

The Sudzha GTS is a critical hub for Russian gas transit to Europe via Ukraine, the final supply route after others shut down. Its destruction will cut off Europe’s affordable gas, spike energy prices, and may hit every European’s wallet, especially during heating season.

Zelensky Demands Russia Return All Territory Gained Since 2014 – Continues to Push His Forever War with Russia

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced in Helsinki that Russia must surrender all territory it gained since 2014.

Of course, this is an impossible request. Russia is winning the war, and it has no desire to relinquish control of Crimea or the Russian-speaking provinces it now controls.

Two months ago, the Trump White House knew that peace would not be possible as long as Zelensky was in charge. The man does not want peace.

Catturd has it right, and the Trump administration knew this weeks ago—no peace in Ukraine until Zelensky is gone.

It’s clear now that President Trump feels more sympathy for the Ukrainian soldiers than this psycho.

Hungarian PM Orban: Broke EU Giving Ukraine Nothing But “Empty Promises”

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, widely considered one of President Trump’s closest ideological allies among European heads of state, remarked on Thursday—after a contentious meeting with EU leaders in Brussels—that the bloc lacks the financial resources to sustain Ukraine, a nation heavily reliant on both funds and materials, in its ongoing conflict with Russia.

“The EU doesn’t have a single penny left. It has spent all of its money,” Prime Minister Orban said in comments given to the Hungarian YouTube channel Patriota.

“[The EU] talks about wanting to continue arming Ukraine, maintaining the Ukrainian army, and funding the functioning of the Ukrainian state… but can’t find any money in its pockets. I think it’s empty promises,” Orban added.

On the same day—the first day of a European Council summit in Brussels, where the EU’s 27 heads of state gathered to discuss Ukraine, as well as economic, energy, defense, and foreign policy—Orban announced that he had vetoed the European Union’s pro-war consensus on Ukraine and criticized President Volodymyr Zelensky’s approach.

For sensitive proposals, such as those related to foreign or security policy, the European Council—composed of the 27 heads of state in the EU—requires unanimous approval from all member states. This is known as the unanimity rule.

Massive Explosion at Russian Nuclear Bomb Base Following Ukrainian Drone Strike

On Thursday Ukraine carried out a drone-bombing attack against a Russian nuclear weapons base 450-miles outside of Moscow resulting in a massive explosion and numerous fires which spread to neighboring cottages.

The base, Engels airfield, hosts a number of Russia’s nuclear-capable heavy bombers and cruise missiles.

A state of emergency has been declared in the area.

Ukrainian Dictator Vladimir Zelensky carried out the attack as a ceasefire agreement is underway.

Notably Ukraine carried out a drone strike on sleeping Russian civilians in Moscow the last time they came to the ‘peace’ table.

France is preparing for nuclear war, according to statements by French Prime Minister Emmanuel Macron.

A hospital in the region was also hit as well.

“A hospital in the central Russian city of Engels has sustained damage in the largest ever Ukrainian drone raid on the area, local officials have reported. The nearby regional capital, Saratov, was also targeted,” RT said Thursday.

On Monday representatives from Moscow and Washington will meet in Saudi Arabia for further peace negotiations.

Rep. Luna Says Newly Released JFK Files Reveal He Sought Russia’s Help on Rogue CIA Agents Before Assassination

Representative Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.), leading the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, said that the latest declassified documents concerning President John F. Kennedy’s assassination suggest he sought assistance from the Soviet Union to address rogue elements within the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) prior to his untimely death.

The declassification of approximately 80,000 pages related to the 1963 assassination has reignited debates over the circumstances surrounding Kennedy’s death.

The first batch of the declassified files includes a 1967 memo detailing claims by former U.S. Army intelligence officer Gary Underhill, who alleged that a “small clique within the CIA” was involved in Kennedy’s assassination.

Underhill reportedly fled Washington, D.C., in a state of agitation the day after the assassination, expressing fears for his life and suggesting that the CIA clique was engaged in illicit activities, including gun-running and narcotics trafficking.

He believed Kennedy had discovered these operations and was killed before he could expose them. Underhill was found dead six months later under suspicious circumstances, with the coroner ruling it a suicide. ​

Zelensky Backs Trump Proposal To Halt All Strikes On Energy Facilities

Fresh off a Wednesday morning phone call with President Trump, Zelensky has said that he backs the US proposal to halt all strikes on energy facilities in the context of the Ukraine war, according to Bloomberg. Still, he has at the same time vowed to ‘win this war’.

Just hours prior, overnight, Ukrainian drones had targeted a Russian oil facility in Krasnodar Region, resulting in damage and a large fire at a oil tank. The one-hour phone call was described as “very good” by Trump on Truth Social.

“Much of the discussion was based on the call made yesterday with President Putin in order to align both Russia and Ukraine in terms of their requests and needs,” the president wrote.

“We are very much on track, and I will ask Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and National Security Advisor Michael Waltz, to give an accurate description of the points discussed.”

If the tit-for-tat strikes on energy facilities actually halt for the 30-day period, this could indeed jump-start other major agreements, a first in the war.

Putin Peels Off the Masks of the Ceasefire Kabuki

Putin will never sacrifice Russia’s “indivisibility of security” demands posed to Washington in December 2021 – and met with a no-response response.

The “ceasefire” announced with trademark bombast by Team Trump 2.0 should be seen as a tawdry kabuki inside a cheap matryoshka.

As we peel off the successive masks, the last one standing inside the matryoshka is a woke transvestite tiny dancer: a Minsk 3 in drag.

Now cue to a “ceasefire” redux: President Putin in uniform only for the second time since the start of the SMO, dead serious, visiting the frontline in Kursk.

Finally, cue to the actual peel off operation: Putin’s press conference after his meeting with Lukashenko in Moscow.

Ceasefire? Of course. We support it. And then, methodically, diplomatically, the Russian President pulled a Caravaggio, and went all-out chiaroscuro on every geopolitical and military detail of the American gambit. A consumate artful deconstruction.

End result: the ball is now back in Donald Trump’s court. Incidentally the leader of the revamping-in-progress Empire of Chaos who does not (italics mine) have the cards.

The art of diplomatic nuance

That’s how diplomacy at the highest level works – something out of reach of American bumpkins of the Rubio variety.

Putin was gracious enough to thank “the President of the United States, Mr. Trump, for paying so much attention to resolving the conflict.”

After all the Americans also seem to be involved in “achieving a noble mission, a mission to stop hostilities and the loss of human lives.”

Then he went for the kill: “This ceasefire should lead to a long-term peace and eliminate the initial causes of this crisis.”

As in all Russian key imperatives – widely known since at least June 2024 – will have to be satisfied. After all, it’s Russia that’s winning the war in the battlefield, not the U.S., the – already fragmented – NATO, and much less Ukraine.

Putin was adamant on the ceasefire: “We are for it.”
