I have said many times that in Istanbul three years ago, we were very close to signing a full agreement. However, Boris Johnson prevented Ukraine from signing it. A Ukrainian official confirmed in an interview that they were ready to sign three years ago, but London and Washington forbade them from doing so.

Собеседники спорят о Буче: один говорит, что это «хорошо спланированная акция…», чтобы показать агрессивность, кровожадность, убийцы россияне; другая сторона отвечает, что «ничего подобного там не было» и знает «номера автомобилей» организаторов БУДЖ, спрашивая, «почему это всё замяли на Западе?» Разговор переходит к телам: «я своими глазами видел», «на войне… тела» — один настаивает, другой сомневается. Путин якобы говорил, что «вся Буча это фейк», но оппоненты утверждают, что их «спецслужбы» обращали внимание Запада, однако «вы замылили их». Interlocutors discuss Bucha: one says it was a 'well-planned operation to show aggression, bloodlust, murderers'—the other counters that 'nothing like that happened there,' claiming to know 'car numbers' of the organizers of BUDZH and asking why it was hushed in the West. Bodies: 'I saw with my own eyes.' Putin allegedly said that 'all of Bucha is a fake,' while others say their 'intelligence services' drew the West's attention, and that 'you concealed them.'

Зеленский и Путин встретились для обсуждения ситуации на Донбассе. Зеленский призывал прекратить огонь, но Макрон не реагировал. Необходимо продлить договор об особом статусе Донбасса и обсудить исполнение Минских соглашений, но нет конкретных ответов от России. Translation: Zelensky and Putin met to discuss the situation in Donbass. Zelensky called for a ceasefire, but Macron seemed indifferent. It is necessary to extend the special status agreement for Donbass and address the implementation of the Minsk agreements, but there are no specific answers from Russia.

As of February 2024, Speaker 0 asks if the person in question has the freedom to directly communicate with the speaker or their government to resolve the ongoing issues. Speaker 1 responds that the person considers themselves the head of state and won the elections. They believe that the coup d'etat in 2014 is the main source of power. Despite flaws in the government, the person is recognized as the president by the United States, Europe, and most of the world. Speaker 1 mentions negotiations with Ukraine in Istanbul, where the person was aware and even signed a preliminary document. However, they claim that former British Prime Minister Johnson dissuaded them from signing, leading to a sense of ridicule and sadness.

European leaders are not coming to rescue Zelensky from bullying; they are coming "because we've been working with the Europeans" and "the president invited them to come." The visit is not a stunt; there have been more meetings with Zelensky than with Putin, including "one meeting with Putin and, like, a dozen meetings with Zelensky." The White House says Zelensky told European leaders last week he wanted a cease-fire and that he would "walk out in two minutes" if Putin didn't agree; he spent three hours with Putin but "did not get one." The aim is "a peace agreement to end this war" and there was "enough progress" to move to the next phase. If peace isn't possible, "sanctions" are on the table, but "if he did this now, the moment the president puts those additional sanctions, that's the end of the talks." It will require concessions from both sides.

There is concern from the Europeans that Zelensky is being bullied into signing something away, which is why European leaders are coming as backup tomorrow. They are coming here tomorrow because we've been working with the Europeans; the president invited them to come. The president told those European leaders last week that he wanted to cease fire, and he said on television he would walk out if Putin didn’t agree, with severe consequences if he didn’t. He spent three hours with Putin and did not get one. Our goal is a peace agreement to end this war. There was enough progress in the talks to move to the next phase. If peace is not possible and the war continues, thousands will die. The president could impose new sanctions, but that would end talks; it will require concessions from both sides.

I just came from the press area, and I've learned that President Zelensky has essentially been asked to leave the White House. The feeling is that Zelensky came off as ungrateful and disrespectful during the meetings, with officials noting his body language, like shrugging and eye-rolling. The President believes Zelensky isn't serious about pursuing peace at this time. He's welcome to return when he's ready to have serious discussions about peace, but right now, he's being told he needs to go home. As a result, the lunch planned for them is now going to be eaten by the press staff.

Negotiations with Russia in Istanbul were successful, even to the point of opening a champagne bottle in celebration. The agreement was 90% ready for a direct meeting between Putin and Zelensky, with only the size of Ukrainian armed forces in peacetime remaining. However, after the discovery of Bucha, Zelensky was shocked and the negotiations were halted. A meeting scheduled for April 9th was canceled. The speaker doesn't know if Boris Johnson's visit to Kyiv influenced this decision. Although Russia showed readiness to continue negotiations, Ukraine declined. The speaker now believes an agreement at that time was impossible, as Putin could reframe the conflict as a war against the West, opening a "Pandora's box" of global issues. The speaker views the current situation as a new "Thirty Years' War," signaling the end of the modern era.

- «Почему встреча президента? Потому что в будущем.» - «27-го была встреча или 26-го же была? 29-го. 29-го, да.» - «Я сейчас уже не помню. Обуча это второе число, второе или третье.» - «Так сначала должна была быть встреча делегации. Они готовили рамочное соглашение, после этого должна была встреча президента. Потому что всегда подготовка документов, меморандум, сигнал партнерам, все остальное, и потом на встрече президента.» - «Открылась Буча. Открылась Буча, и президент сказал: Я вообще выхожу из переговоров.» - «Когда мы вернулись из Стамбула, приехал Борис Джонсон в Киев и сказал, что мы вообще не будем с ними ничего подписывать, и давайте будем просто воевать.» - «Why the president's meeting? Because in the future.» - «Was the meeting on the 27th or the 26th? 29th. 29th, yes.» - «I don't remember now. Obucha this is the second date, the second or the third.» - «So first there was supposed to be a delegation meeting. They were preparing a framework agreement, after that there should have been a meeting with the president. Because there is always preparation of documents, a memorandum, a signal to partners, everything else, and then at the presidential meeting.» - «Bucha opened. Bucha opened, and the president said: I am withdrawing from negotiations.» - «When we returned from Istanbul, Boris Johnson came to Kyiv and said that we won't sign anything with them at all, and let's just fight.»

Here's the White House's perspective on what happened today. Supposedly, the Ukrainians were pleading for a reset. Zelenskyy lingered in the West Wing, hoping to salvage the day, which was planned to conclude with a signed agreement and a joint press conference. However, the President refused and essentially kicked him out of the White House. Rubio and Waltz reportedly told the Ukrainian delegation that a deal wasn't possible at this time because the U.S. believes Zelenskyy isn't prepared to discuss peace terms. He's welcome to return when his attitude changes. The two sides were initially scheduled to have lunch together before the press conference.

On February 24, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine after sabotaging the Minsk agreements for seven years. The video argues that the primary purpose of the United States and United Kingdom was to sabotage the Istanbul negotiations in April 2022 in order to keep a long war going, using Ukrainians as a proxy to weaken Russia as a strategic rival. The author asserts that a US hegemonic strategy relies on perpetual dominance and NATO expansion, and that US aims include preserving global primacy by weakening rivals like Russia. The video emphasizes that this view is controversial, but presents evidence of Western actions that allegedly undermined peace talks. Before Istanbul, Zelensky had signaled openness to discussing Ukraine’s neutral status immediately after the invasion (February 25–26, 2022). By February 27, Moscow and Kyiv agreed to peace talks without preconditions. Meanwhile, US and UK officials signaled opposition to peace without preconditions and framed diplomacy as contingent on Russia’s withdrawal and a de-escalation, framing Moscow’s proposals as negotiation under the barrel of a gun. Ned Price of the US State Department stated that Moscow was proposing diplomacy at the barrel of a gun and urged Russia to halt its bombing and withdraw. UK comments by James Heappey on February 26 framed regime change as the objective, asserting Putin’s days as president would be numbered and that Ukrainian sovereignty must be restored. The EU’s €450 million in military aid approved on February 27 was said to reduce incentives to negotiate with Moscow. UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson on February 28 framed measures as bringing down the Putin regime. In March 2022, US officials framed the war as broader than Russia or Ukraine, emphasizing world order and rules to uphold, with Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin stating the aim to weaken Russia so it could not quickly reproduce aggression. Former CIA Director Leon Panetta described the conflict as a proxy war with Russia, advocating direct actions to “kill Russians.” Bloomberg reports by Neil Ferguson in March 2022 suggested a preference for extending the conflict to bleed Putin, with the endgame being the end of the Putin regime. Zelensky’s March 27, 2022 interview with The Economist noted that “everyone has varied interests,” including some Western factions preferring a long war to exhaust Russia, even at Ukraine’s expense. Despite this, negotiations proceeded in Istanbul, where progress was reported as substantial and a deal near. Ukrainian media (Ukrainian Pravda) quoted Boris Johnson as telling Kyiv that Putin is a war criminal and that even if Ukraine were ready to sign guarantees, the UK and US would not support it. Johnson would later advocate “strategic endurance” and a long war, while Zelensky’s party leader Andriy Arakhamiya indicated Johnson had told Kyiv not to sign any deal at all, opting to continue the war. Turkey and Israel played mediator roles; Naftali Bennett argued that Russia wanted to end NATO expansion and make huge concessions, and that Zelensky accepted neutrality, but the West blocked a peace agreement to keep pressuring Putin. Turkish officials suggested Zelensky was ready to sign a peace agreement before US/UK intervention, and implied the war is not simply Russia–Ukraine but a war between Russia and the West, with the West prolonging the conflict to weaken Russia. In later years, Western leaders publicly praised using Ukraine to weaken Russia and pivot focus to China, framing continued arms support as essential. By 2024, as negotiations stalled and Ukraine’s situation worsened, Johnson warned that Ukraine’s fall would threaten Western hegemony, while European diplomacy was downplayed in favor of weapon aid as the path to peace. The speaker concludes that recognizing the Istanbul negotiations’ sabotage matters for seeking the best possible deal today, rather than pursuing a protracted proxy war that harms Ukraine and prolongs the conflict.

"Почему встреча президента? Потому что в будущем." "Так сначала должна была быть встреча делегации. Они готовили рамочное соглашение, после этого должна была быть встреча президента." "Открылась Буча. Открылась Буча, и президент сказал: Я вообще выхожу из переговоров." "Когда мы вернулись из Стамбула, приехал Борис Джонсон в Киев и сказал, что мы вообще не будем с ними ничего подписывать, и давайте будем просто воевать." Why the president's meeting? Because of the future. Thus first there should have been a delegation meeting. They were preparing a framework agreement, after which there should have been a meeting with the President. Bucha opened. Bucha opened, and the president said: I am quitting the negotiations. When we returned from Istanbul, Boris Johnson came to Kyiv and said that we would not sign anything with them, and let's just fight.

We will now talk about the future of Ukraine with you, as it seems you are serious about it. Putin had asked the Americans in December 2021 for written confirmation on how to handle Ukraine, but President Biden refused to negotiate on this matter. There should have been an uproar on the German side, as a potential war would involve Germany in the issue.

Спикер 1 заявляет, что события под Бучей были «хорошо спланированная акция, чтобы показать агрессивность, кровожадность, убийцы россияне и прочее», и что «ничего подобного там не было»; он добавляет, что знает, «кто это делал, и мы знаем номера автомобилей, на которых приехали организаторы БУДЖ», и говорил об этом публично, спрашивая, «почему это всё замяли на Западе?». Спикер 0 отвечает: «Больно это слышать, я своими глазами видел», утверждает, что видел тела и не согласен с тезисом об отсутствии зверств, и добавляет, что Путин заявил, что «вся Буча это фейк», и он «понял, что вы солидарны с ним». Спикер 1 добавляет, что «наши спецслужбы конкретно обращали внимание Запада на некоторые вещи» и что, по его словам, «вы замылили их», называя: «на каких автомобилях кто проезжал, кто это делал, мы знаем». Speaker 1 states that the Bucha events were a «well-planned operation to show aggression, bloodlust, killers of Russians and the like,» and that «there was nothing like that there»; he adds that he knows, «who did it, and we know the license plate numbers of the cars the organizers of Budzh arrived in,» and he spoke about it publicly, asking, «why was all of this hushed up in the West?». Speaker 0 answers: «That hurts to hear, I saw it with my own eyes,» claiming that he saw bodies and does not agree with the thesis of no atrocities, and adds that Putin stated that «all of Bucha is a fake,» and he «understands that you are in solidarity with him.» Speaker 1 adds that «our intelligence services specifically drew the West's attention to certain things» and that, in his words, «you blurred them,» naming: «which cars passed by and who did it, we know».

They were ready to end the war if we take on the neutrality of Finland and promise not to join NATO. Boris Johnson came to Kyiv and said we won't sign anything with them, let's just fight. But as soon as we called on them to sit down, the next day they were already waiting with a delegation.

Speaker 0: "You know there is concern from the Europeans that president Zelensky is going to be bullied into signing something away." "That’s why you have these European leaders coming as backup tomorrow." Speaker 1: "It isn't. ... They're not coming here tomorrow to keep Zelenskyy from being bullied." He adds: "We've had one meeting with Putin and, like, a dozen meetings with Zelensky." "We've been working with these people for weeks." "They're coming here tomorrow because they chose to come here tomorrow." He notes "there was enough progress" to "move to the next phase" and "enough movement to justify a follow-up meeting with Zelensky and the Europeans." On sanctions, he says: "If peace is not gonna be possible here... the president has that option to then come in and impose new sanctions. But if he did this now, ... that's the end of the talks." "We wanna wind up with a peace deal that ends this war" and "It will require both sides to make concessions."

Naftali Bennett said that Boris Johnson interfered and prevented Ukrainians from signing a deal at the end of negotiations. Ukrainian representative Karakami confirmed that Johnson advised stopping negotiations to win the war militarily. According to Speaker 1, the Ukrainians began asking for advice and it became clear that Putin's main condition was in an annex. This condition included limits on the weapons systems Ukraine could have, which would have neutralized them as a military force. Russia would not have similar constraints, such as pulling back or having a buffer zone. People inside and outside Ukraine questioned whether it was a good deal, and that's when it fell apart.

Naftali Bennett said that Boris Johnson interfered and prevented Ukrainians from signing a deal with Russia. Ukrainian representative Karakami confirmed that Johnson advised stopping negotiations to win the war militarily. According to Speaker 1, the Ukrainians began asking for advice late in the negotiation process. It became clear that Putin's main condition, buried in an annex, would limit the kinds of weapons systems Ukraine could have, effectively neutering it militarily. Russia would face no similar constraints, such as pulling back or creating a buffer zone. Questions arose about whether this was a good deal, at which point the deal fell apart.

По трагедии в Буче прошло полгода. «мы безуспешно пытаемся разобраться, что же там произошло» и «для начала хотим получить список фамилий тех людей, чьи тела были показаны на весь мир». Я сообщил, что «мне никто не может этот ответ дать» и мы «обращались в самые разные структуры». Поэтому я «попросил уважаемого Антонио Гутероша в присутствии всех членов Совета Безопасности, других членов ООН, в микрофон попросил употребить свои возможности, свой авторитет, чтобы сделать, по-моему, не очень сложную вещь получить список фамилий тех лиц, чьи тела были показаны в Буче». Мы «до сих пор ничего не имеем», и «нет объяснений по целому ряду других вопросов, начиная с отравления Скрипалей»; «никаких документов не предъявляют» по Skripal, «отравления Навального тоже Германии говорит, не дадим мы вам анализы посмотреть», а «Германия нам запрещает» по ОКХ. «А почему?» «Вот это интересный вопрос.» Bucha tragedy is discussing the Bucha tragedy; six months have passed. "we are unsuccessfully trying to understand what happened there" and "for the start we want to obtain the list of surnames of those people whose bodies were shown to the whole world." I stated that "nobody can give me this answer" and we "have approached a variety of structures." Therefore I "asked the respected Antonio Guterres in the presence of all Security Council members, other UN members, to use his capabilities, his authority, to do, in my view, not a very difficult thing: obtain the list of surnames of those individuals whose bodies were shown in Bucha." We "so far have nothing," and "no explanations on a whole range of other questions, starting with the poisoning of Skripal"; "no documents are presented" concerning Skripal, "the poisoning of Navalny also Germany says, we will not let you look at the analyses," and "Germany forbids us" on OPCW. "Why?" "Here's an interesting question."

Putin claimed to have a document outlining a peace agreement with Ukraine, which he showed during negotiations in Istanbul. The agreement was called the Permanent Agreement on Ukraine and Security Guarantees, consisting of 18 articles covering everything from military equipment to personnel. However, Putin did not make the document public. The Ukrainian delegation aimed to prolong the process, while the Russian delegation wanted to pressure Ukraine into signing the agreement, particularly by ensuring Ukraine's non-membership in NATO. Ukraine refused this point due to the need for constitutional changes and lack of trust in Russia's commitment. The lack of preparation and uncertainty led Ukraine to only work towards an agreement with 100% assurance that history would not repeat itself. Boris Johnson's visit to Kyiv further complicated matters, as he stated that no agreements would be signed, suggesting a preference for continued conflict.

I just came from the press area and have learned that President Biden has essentially kicked Zelensky out of the White House. Zelensky's own delegation is advising him to return home. The President felt disrespected by Zelensky's body language, including shrugging and eye-rolling, which officials perceived as ungrateful. Biden believes Zelensky is not currently prepared for peace negotiations and can return when he is. As a result, the scheduled lunch has been canceled, and the press staff will be eating it instead.

And one of the things at the table was one of the gentlemen who's a great guy, but he said, I said I I hope I didn't insult him. 'let's meet in another month or two, and let's see if we can start, you know, making some what.' 'He that a month or two? You're gonna have another 40,000 people dead in a month or two. You have to do it tonight.' 'And I did, actually. I called, president Putin, and we're trying to work out a meeting with president Zelensky. We'll see what happens there.' 'And then if that works out if it works out, then I'll go to the trilap and close it up.'

As of right now, there is no ceasefire in place, and we've seen Russia continue its attacks on Ukraine. The question is what indications the president is getting from Putin that he wants to have this meeting with Zelensky soon, because he spoke to him directly yesterday. And he expressed that rather He than spoke to that directly yesterday, and the president put that in his statement that he gave to all of you, the news media, knowing you'd be asking following that conversation in the effort of transparency. The remark references a direct contact yesterday and a statement issued to the media in the effort of transparency.

They were ready to end the war if we took a neutral stance like Finland and promised not to join NATO. When we returned to Istanbul, Boris Johnson came to Kyiv and said we wouldn't sign anything with them and let's just fight. But as soon as we called on them to sit down, the next day they would already be sitting, waiting with a delegation.
