Trump Says It Out Loud - If Ukraine Wanted Peace Zelensky Would Not Sabotage Every Deal Offered

 

Donald Trump has said Ukraine needs a leader who can end the ongoing war with Russia 
Picture: Daily Telegraph

Friday's deal between Trump and Putin wasn't only about diesel. It was also about Kyiv.

Hours after Zelensky accused Washington of using Ukraine's negotiators as a "smokescreen" for a backroom deal with Moscow, Axios reported that Trump decided to let Russia sell diesel after Zelensky ignored half a dozen US requests to stop attacking Russian oil refineries. The alleged source was a US official with direct knowledge, who did not hold back:

"Zelensky is misreading the room. By continuing to hit refineries, he is eroding the good will that he has built with Trump over the last six months."

In other words, the sanctions waiver was as much a message to Kyiv as a gift to Moscow. So how did we get to this latest geopolitical twist, what is Trump actually ggetting for lifting sanctions (spoiler: less than nine days of fuel), and why is the deal is on a collision course with the one Ukrainian policy Kyiv says it won't give up. Thus Zelensky is about to learn there is a price for trying to twist Trump's arm.

It now looks as though both Putin and Trump have had enough of The Poisonous Pixie With The Piano Playing Plonker and his insane antics.  Putin revealed his patience had run out last week when he announced Russia will weaponise winter against Kiev by knocking out its energy infrastructure and now Trump has turned on the Ukrainian leader over his constant provocations of Russia.

Reports from inside Ukraine suggest a mood swing among citizens as fraud scandals in government and unpopular policies like military conscription fail to move the country closer to a peace deal.

As he was boarding Air Force One on the way to Tennessee this morning, President Trump made his feelings clear over how he feels about Ukrainian President Zelensky.

President Trump stated that "it’s time for Ukraine to get a new president", criticizing Zelensky for bombing Russian oil refineries and accusing him of failing to end the war.

"You know what I suggest? I suggest they get a new leader who could make a deal because he could've made many deals and for some reason he never does... I think it's time for Ukraine to get a new President," Trump is quoted as saying. 

One day after announcing plans to buy more than a million tonnes of diesel from Russia, Trump said the Ukrainian strikes were driving up global fuel prices and creating “problems for the world”.

“He wants to make problems for our farmers, our ranchers with diesel fuel because Russia supplies a large portion of the diesel fuel throughout the world. And we told them ‘Do whatever you want, but don’t hit the diesel fuel, because this is a big problem, a big shortage’.”

“And what does he do? He goes and hits the diesel fuel.”

So WTF is going on with the crazy Ukronazis? Do they really want peace or do they just want the rest of the world to keep providing cash, weapons and ammunition so that they can commit national suicide by keeping on killing Russians?
Well as this blog has reported many times Zelensky and his corrupt cronyarchy have sabotaged every peace initiative in the past four years, which speaks for itself ...

 

 comment by cynic, lifted from Moon of Alabama

From the point of view of us spectators  we look at this war in terms of territory won / lost, whose weapons are superior and who can cause the most impressive damage to the other side. To many in the third world, Russia is our champion and we want them to put west and NATO in it’s place. 

From the POV of the Russian leadership they are facing a foe with 7 times the population and 20 times the economic might. The Russians may have a geographic advantage and a nuclear arsenal to fall back on but from the Russians perspective have only just recovered from a century of civil war, communist tyranny, 2 world wars, a cold war and a decade long economic depression. In just the last world war they lost 27 million souls and a country that was absolutely devastated.I’m sure the Russians will fight WW3 if they have to and they may not win but they’ll make sure no one else does either 

I suspect they are tired of fighting wars, mourning losses and rebuilding their country. It costs nothing to talk. If they can cleave away the USA from supporting a NATO war with Russia by offering them partnerships on energy deals to the EU or by selling them assets stranded by sanctions good for them. Talk doesn’t cost lives and stranded assets don’t benefit the investor so if they can get rid of them and raise capital regardless of what  we/they think of the buyer … good for them … they can wash their hands of it and get on to other business.

 So chunk by chunk, the assets of Russia would fall into the insatiable claws of mainly US-based predators most of the worst of which happen to belong to the same cult as their mafia Oligarch equivalents in Russia and Ukraine. NATO is the US-empire. Keep buying it off till there’s no more left to sell? And what then? 

This logic is very akin to that of the neoliberal capitalist ideology. As if the world is nothing more than a lousy set of corrupt “businesses” and absolutely everything in it (Oligarchs of course excepted) is no more than a disposable object branded with for-sale price tag.Praise be to the shit-filled economist-priestly class of monopoly-capitalism and the Masters their fantasy drivel serves! 

“Talk” certainly does cost lives. For instance, plenty in Donbas from eight years of EU lies and US connivance in  support of the Kiev  regime and its blatantly Nazi, Oligarch-created militias. 
 
And now Putin — a tool of the dual-passport Chabad mafia Oligarchs based in Russia, who was tasked as successor to YI suspect they are tired of fighting wars, mourning losses and rebuilding their country. It costs nothing to talk. If they can cleave away the USA from supporting a NATO war with Russia by offering them partnerships on energy deals to the EU or by selling them assets stranded by sanctions good for them. Talk doesn’t cost lives and stranded assets don’t benefit the investor so if they can get rid of them and raise capital regardless of what  we/they think of the buyer … good for them … they can wash their hands of it and get on to other business. ***

And don’t forget that every one of the aforementioned toxic cult imagines itself to be a greater or lesser Oligarch, having been divinely promised 2,800 slaves … these slaves being the ordinary-(allegedly sub)human survivors of the final conflicts via which the Oligarchy intends to make its own status permanent. 
 
“Talk” certainly does cost lives. For instance, plenty in Donbas from eight years of EU lies and US connivance in  support of the Kiev  regime and its blatantly Nazi, Oligarch-created militias. 
 
And now Putin — a tool of the dual-passport Chabad mafia Oligarchs based in Russia, who was tasked as successor to Yeltsin to preserve the wealth of these Oligarchs facing competition from bigger US/NATO based Oligarchs expanding too much into their patch — is happy to sell-out Russian assets to US-based interests via his own Chabad mafia minder, to the benefit of the US Chabad mafia (including the Trump/Kushner clan) … and even effectively supply fuel to the NATO military forces that are killing real Russians in Russia, thereby weakening heavily sanctioned Russia’s position while stabbing Iran and anti-Zionist Yemen in the back.
 
Of course the Oligarchs will profit from that, just as from earlier transfers of warfare-related titanium etc.
How many more “it’s ever so clever” excuses are going to be made for the antics of the Putin regime?
 
Interesting how it all involves, on both supposedly opposing sides, one particularly megalomanic cult.
Which makes no secret of wanting most of Ukraine for itself, as the new (Israel Mk.2) Khazaria.
Yet so many analysts of the situation deliberately ignore such very real vectors of influence at the top.

‘We’re Not At War With Russia,’ Germany's Chancellor Scholz tells Warmongering French Ouanqeur Macron
Though Macron's recent posturing as a reincarnated Napoleon by calling on his fellow European leaders to send troops to fight alongside the Ukrainian military may have been nothing more than an ill - advised attempt to deflect attention from online conspiracy theories that his wife Brigitte is, or was at some time in the past, a man, the ploy, if that is what it was, has backfired.

Total Defeat Of Ukraine By Russia Is Only A Matter Of Time

Is The West About To Abandon Ukraine?
n a fresh interview with Germany's national television service ARD on Saturday (2 December,) NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg warned viewers to prepare for for more "bad news" from Ukraine. Asked for his opinion on whether the situation will worsen for Ukrainian as winter sets in, after the much hyped summer counteroffensive turned into a catastrophic failure he responded, "Wars develop in phases.

The War In Ukraine Is Entering A Significant Phase - SitRep
With all the other troubles in the world its easy to overlook the news from Ukraine which suggests that conflict is entering a a crucial phase as the western allies find it inceasingly difficult to keep up with Kiev's demands for cash, weapons and ammo. Big Serge has a rather long situation report on Substack and it will not make happy reading for the Zelensky fan club in the west:

Game Over For Zelensky - NATO andEU Officials Urge Ukraine To Seek Peace
As this blog predicted early last month, following the catastrophic failure of Ukraine's 'counter offensive' to push Russian troops out of their country, American and European leaders who have previously been solidly behind the doomed Ukrainian war with its powerful neighbour, are rapidly going cool on their pledges of unlimited support for puppet - president Zelensky and his far - right masters.

Ukraine's Military Commander Admits Counter - offensive Has Failed And The Battlefield Position Is Stalemate
Since Russian troops crossed the border into Ukraine, back in February 2022, those of us who questioed the Russia bad, Ukraine goood narrative have been targeted by torrents of abuse hurled by pseudo - patriots and armchair soldiers, and called a 'Kremlin stooges', Russian agents', 'Putin supporters', and enemies of freedom. When anybody suggested that Russia's aim was not to conquer the whole of Ukraine and from there wage war on the rest on continental Europe ...

Ukraine Too Corrupt To Join The EU Says Former EU Leader Juncker
Former EU Commission President and world class oenophile Jean-Claude Juncker, stated this week in unusually blunt terms that are perhaps a sign of the times, that Ukraine is not ready to join the EU due to its being "corrupt at all levels of society," the former European Commission president, said in unusually blunt language during an interview with Germany’s Augsburger Allgemeine newspaper this week.

There Is Only One Way Ukraine Can End The War
As Ukraine's much hyped counterattack has failed to achieved the and momentum that hoped for by American and NATO leaders including President Volodymyr Zelensky who admitted it was "slower than desired", and a range of soldiers interviewed by BBC and Sky News television reporters t on different parts of the long (probably too long given the depletion of Ukrainian military manpower,) frontline have blamed minefields laid by Russian troops for that delay. Well as is often said, in any wartruth is the first casualty.

Who Blew Up The Nordstream Pipeline
So whodunnit? Sabotage of undersea gas pipe will escalate tension and move the world closer to nuclear war, but who is behind it, Russia in a bid to put more presure on Europe, Ukraine in an attempt to drag NATO into direct action, or the USA using a CIA false flag event to advance its own agenda.

Has Putin Has Pushed Europe Into Economic Depression, Hyperrinflation and Currency Collapse?
Though it was entirely predictable and indeed had been expected for some time, the news over the weekend that the Nord Stream 1 pipeline which feeds gas from Russia to northern Europe via The Baltic route had been shut down completely by The Kremlin in retaliation for the continued financial and military support given by NATO and EU member states to Ukraine in the conflict with Russia. The European Commission, governing body of the EU, immediately put the community on something close to a war footing, ...

Is Russia Selling Its Oil To The World Through An Obscure Egyptian Port?
As this blog predicted when NATO and EU member states shot themselves in the foot by reacting to Russia's invasion of Ukraine with sanctions that prevented Russia from selling oil, gas and vital raw materials to the countries that needed them most, the NATO and EU member states, the Russians have had no problems finding alternative customers for their gas and oil and no problem getting oil into the world's commodity markets through the back door.

Jingoistic Western Triumphalism Will Not End The War In Ukraine Or Cripple Putin, But It Is Crippling Western Nations

As the war in Ukraine grinds on and Russia steps up its economic war against the west and in particular The European Union, claims made recently by the idiotically 'woke' leaders of Europe's main economic and military powers that the West has a once-in-a–generation chance to severely weaken Russia’s capabilities, both militarily and geopolitically, look increasingly hollow. Putin's critics have cited 'Western unity' as one of the main reasons why Russia will be economically destroyed and politically humiliated when the Ukraine's military finally claim victory.

European Union Is Again Close To A Meltdown As Eurozone Economy Collapses

Russian Long Range Missile Test Fuels Nuclear War Fears As NATO Pushed Ukraine To Escalate Conflict

We The Good Guys Versus They The Bad Guys Reporting Does Not Make Sense For The Ukraine Crisis
Mainstream media reporting of the conflict in Ukraine has disappointed. Perhaps I was naive to suppose that lessons might have been learned from the hits their print sales and online traffic rates took as a result of their handling the COVID pandemic But instead of focusing on the most obviously newsworthy aspect of the build up to and escalation of the war, Russia’s view of NATO expansion into Ukraine and even further to Georgia and Kazakhstan, news reports have simply demonised Russia and portrayed Ukraine as the good guys.

Boris and Biden Can't Blame Ukraine War For Energy Crisis
With typical arrogance and condescension towards the people who elected them Boris Johnson, Joe Biden and their respectiive presstitutes are trying to spin the energy crisis Europe and North America are currently facing as somehow being linked to the conflict in Ukraine and therfore blame is being attactched to Russia and Vladimir Putin. Do they really think we are stupid enough to believe such unmitigated bollocks? ...

Even If The War In Ukraine Ends, Sanctions Will Stay - So How Bad Will The Food Crisis Get?
Western leaders, desperate to show their own countries they were taking a firm stance on Russia's invasion of Ukraine, were quick to impose economic sanctions ... so quick in fact that they acted before they had though things through. While freezing Russia out of the global finance system they have exacerbated the wests energy crisis, while Russia's retaliatory ban on raw materials (fertiliser) exports will create extra problems on top of those we already had ...

Moscow Slams Door On Renewed Peace Negotiations As Zelensky Sabotages Another Peace Initiative For Ukraine

 Egbert Nobakkon,30 September 2026

https://today.usc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/shutterstock_2340524513-1920x1080.jpg 
The consequence of Ukraine's war (Picture: today.usc.edu/ )

 

Two weeks ago the Kremlin was hinting that negotiations to end Russia's war with Ukraine could resume. Putin had said the trilateral talks with the United States and Ukraine would be unlikely before the State Duma elections, but that Russia would be ready to resume contacts after them. The elections ended on September 20. Within a week, both Putin and Lavrov had shifted from conditional openness to a set of positions that make a negotiated end to the war harder to reach than at any point this year. 

The tipping point was Ukraine's drone swarm attack on Russia's election day, which due to its timing could only have been intended to provoke the Russians into changing their position.. Russian state media reported that more than 1,600 drones targeted the Moscow area that night, with strikes on polling stations, including one on a school which was effectively destroyed. 

Also the head of a territorial election commission was killed when her home was hit. Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin called the raid unprecedented. According to RT, two civilians were killed in the suburbs and an oil refinery was damaged. Whatever one makes of Russian accounts of the damage, because throughout this war it has been clear that reports issued by either side cannot be believed, the political effect in Moscow was plain. 

In a press conference on September 25, Putin recast the whole negotiating track. He listed a series of Ukrainian escalations: the strike on St. Petersburg's port during the June economic forum, a campaign against Russian refineries, an attempted blockade of Russia's Black Sea coast that he said damaged more than 100 vessels, and strikes on commercial warehouses. 

Putin's  message to Kyiv was that no provocation or escalation will get it what it wants, and by sabotaging every pace initiative Kiev is only making its own situation worse.

 He said Russia had answered each one, so effectively that Kyiv is now seeking partial ceasefires in the energy sector and the air.

This, we know from independent sources in the USA, United Nations and NATO is true. As has ben the pattern since 2022, every time a peace initiative has been launched or some leader or other ( principally Donald Trump or Turkey's President Erdogan,) has offered to host negotiations or tried to broker a deal, the crazy, war loving, neo - Nazi Ukies and their putative leaders The Poisonous Pixie With The Piano Playing Penis Zelensky, have sabotaged it by escalating conflict or provoking Russia. 

 We will never know how many of the Ukrainians demonstrating in Maidan in 2013 would have actually turned out if they knew what the unconstitutional overthrow of the corrupt, Kremlin friendly Yanukovich government, engineered by the CIA, NATO and the EU was going to bring about. 

They could have waited a year to throw the democratically elected government out in elections  but were led down the primrose path with false promises that a new future with NATO and European Union was at hand if they wold turn away from Moscow. It was, but with the loss of territory, millions of people , their infrastructure, and an impotent Europe unable to do anything about.it. That is the tragedy and it can’t be undone . Ukraine, as corrupt if not more so now than it was then, could have been much better now without the coup. 

Russia didn't demand much to avoid this war. Ukrainian neutrality. No more CIA bases and American bio weapons labs on their border. Stop killing Russian speaking Ukrainians in Donbas by the thousands with shelling. Put a lid on the Nazism.

But no. Ukraine just had to fight to the death. For what? So they could keep shelling their own people in the Russian speaking eastern provinces? So they could militarise with NATO to attack Russia later? Was it worth it?

A few weeks into the war Russia gave them one more chance to keep all of their territory and end the war. Ukraine would have signed the deal but Bozo Johnson, dispatched as Joe Biden's errand boy ordered them to fight on and warned that there was to be no peace deal that was not pre-approved by the USA and NATO. This intervention forced Ukraine to commit national suicide and also allowed the Banderite (neo - Nazi) Azov Brigade to grab total power. 

The Ukrainian people should stop fighting Russians and attack their real enemies: their leadership, their Galician Nazi and Chosen minders, and the Euro goons and CIA operatives that destroyed them. 

This current stalemate was easy to forecast because NATO and Ukraine want the war to keep going, but Russia has been steadfast in its resolve to keep the annexed land in Ukraine it has already conquered. Actually, the only way to end to the war is to agree with Russia’s demands.  Otherwise, it will be a future effort by NATO and Ukraine that will continue until either Ukraine gives in to Russia’s demands.   

Well, it's just about over now. Millions dead and their economy destroyed. Whatever is left of Ukraine will be buried in debt up to their eyeballs, and the lenders will be demanding payment. Generations of Ukrainians will toil their whole lives to pay back the banksters who ruined them. There will be an exodus of any survivors to avoid that fate. Any left over will probably eventually revolt and default on all obligations. Either way Ukraine will be an impoverished and very poor state for a very long time.

A very stupid prize for a very stupid game. Maybe it's a small consolation that the western European nations that pushed this so hard are also collapsing economically, socially and politically while the American empire is accelerating into terminal decline.

Yes, Iran Has Actually Closed The Strait Of Hormuz Again

 

 

After a news pantomime last night and earlier today (Iran has closed the Strait of Hormuz ... Oh no they haven't ... Oh yes they have,) it has finally been confirmed that Iran has closed the Strait of Hormuz once again over Israel's air strikes on Hezbollah positions in Lebanon, which Iran describes as“violations” of the peace deal agreed with the USA, Tehran’s military has said. Technically Hezbollah is not part of Trump's war and the conflict between the terrorit organisation's forces in Lebanon and the Israelis is a separate issue.

The Iranian military command ‌stated the closure was the “first ‌step” in response to what it described as breaches of the ceasefire agreement, warning that further measures would ‌be taken if “aggression” continued, Iran's state media reported.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) warned vessels not to venture into  the shipping lanes through the strait, saying their security would be at risk.

The US military immediately denied that Iran had control of Hormuz. A spokesman for Central Command said: “Traffic continues to move through the strait, and US forces are monitoring the situation ‌to ensure this remains the case.”

The reports emerged as JD Vance, the US vice-president, told Fox ​News that ‌he was confident ​the ceasefire agreed in Washington’s 14-point deal ⁠with ⁠Tehran would hold. He claimed there was no evidence that Iran had closed The Strait of Hormuz again. That may well be true but it is equally true that there is no evidence it is open. What captain is going to risk his ship and the lives of himself and his crew trying to find out.

Independent reports reveal Israeli strikes on Lebanon killed 16 people this morning, with the country claiming it was responding to attacks by Hezbollah.But these strikes are nothing to do with Trump or America.

Israel is not the USA. Israel is a sovereign state, whether Iran recognises its right to exist or not. (Spoiler, it doesn't.) Israel is not a signatory. to the Islamabad Memorandum. Hezbollah is not the government of Lebanon and neither are its commanders the IRGC.

Israel is not leaving the buffer zone south of the Litani river and is not allowing Hezbollah to rearm and return to the border to carry out another Hamas style, or worse, October 7th.Hezbollah is a proscribed terrorist group and is widely recognised as an  Iranian asset.

The Lebanese army are too weak to control the 90,000 strong Iranian proxy militia, Hezbollah.

UNIFIL (The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon) set up in 2006 has not succeeded disarming Hezbollah and not keeping them north of the Lebanon / Israel  border.Thus it is wholly disingenuous of Iran to use the Israel - Hezbollah conflict as an excuse for closing Hormuz again, and suggests the government of Iran had no intention of honouring the peace deal. No surprise there.

So much for treaties not worth the paper they are written on. So much for useless UN bodies which are actually in favour of the erasure of Israel.

UPDATE - Sunday 21 June, 22:00

Though White House and Pentagon sources have continued throughout today that contrary to Iran's claims The Strait of Hormuz remains open for business as usual, Windward on X has this:

 Hours after the IRGC's closure announcement, AIS traffic through the Strait of Hormuz suggested business as usual. But overnight, the picture shifted: zero AIS transits were recorded through the strait, and only two non-Iranian commercial vessels were AIS-visible this morning. Hesitation is back in an already unpredictable corridor. 

 So as another round of talks, this time in Switzerland, breaks up it looks as though the war is still on

Trump Says Deal With Iran Is Close - Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei Says 'Death To America'

 

 

Two days ago US President Donald Trump told a White House press briefing an agreement with Iran has been "largely negotiated" and details will be announced soon.

The deal would include the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, he said on Saturday, without giving further details.

Trump wrote on social media that he had a "very good call" with the leaders of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and others about a "Memorandum of Understanding pertaining to PEACE".

"An agreement has been largely negotiated, subject to finalisation between the United States of America, the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the various other Countries, as listed," his Truth Social read.

In response an Iranian foreign ministry spokesman told state television that US and Iranian positions had been converging in the last week, but warned that did not mean agreements would be reached on key issues and accused the Americans of "contradictory statements.

A British Prime Minister of the 1960 once famously said 'A week is a long time in politics.' That was then and this is now, a digital age of information overload when a week is almost eternity and Two days is an aeon.

 While Tump was again calling for peace today (May 26 ), Iranian leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei issued a message  calling for greater unity across the Muslim world against the United States and Israel, saying that the chants “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” will become the rallying slogans of Muslims and “the oppressed of the world.” 

Khamenei’s message was to mark Hajj, the annual Islamic pilgrimage. In it, Khamenei described a historic struggle against U.S. and Israeli influence in the Middle East, repeatedly invoking the revolutionary slogan “Allahu Akbar” as the “weapon” that had enabled Iran and its allies to resist outside pressure.

He said Iran had succeeded in “making the Zionist regime helpless under its severe blows during the second imposed war” and in delivering “a harsh slap to aggressive America,” while thwarting efforts to force Tehran into submission.

The statement also praised what it called the “Resistance Front,” saying Iranian forces and allied fighters in Lebanon had secured “notable victories” against “the two terrorist armies, armed to the teeth by the American-Zionist side.”

Khamenei coupled the aggressive rhetoric with a broader appeal for cooperation among Muslim-majority countries, calling on Muslim leaders to “no longer serve as shields for American bases” while denouncing Israel as a “faltering” regime that was nearing “the final stages of its cursed life.”

Khamenei’s message came as the United States, Israel, and Iran remain locked in a tense standoff following months of fighting that included U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear and military facilities, Iranian retaliation across the region, and disruptions to shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.

An aspect of the conflict's wider impact that is not being discussed in mainstream media is the increase in terrorist activity since the outbreak of hostilities initially between Israel and Iran around three months ago. Iran had long been known as the main sponsor of The Muslim Brotherhood, an organisation formed to take jihad into the western democracies. Yet many western leaders are so committed to virtue signalling they refuse to ban the organisation. 

Although the ceasefire Trump negotiated has largely held for the past month, with only minor violations by both sides, negotiations continue over a proposed memorandum of understanding intended to end hostilities and establish a framework for future talks.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on May 25 that negotiations with Tehran were “proceeding nicely” but warned that failure to secure an acceptable agreement could lead to renewed military action.

Earlier today we heard that overnight.US forces carried out “defensive” strikes on a missile site and two Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) mine-laying boats, which officials said were targeting the United States.

Iran immediately accused the US of violating the ceasefire (although to be fair both sides have been violating it on a daily basis,) and criticised the “bad faith and unreliability” of Washington, adding that it would be held accountable for “all consequences arising from these hostile acts”.

“Without any doubt, the Islamic Republic of Iran will leave no aggression unanswered and will not hesitate in defending Iran’s sovereignty with the utmost determination,” the foreign ministry said in a statement.

And so it looks as if we are back to square one. Start stocking up your survival cupboards folks, oil and a lot of things that depend on  oil are going to be in short supply for a while yet.

Iran - US Peace Talks Dead - Well We All Knew They Were Stillborn

 by Arthur Foxake, 3 April 2026

Peace talks between the US and Iran aimed at ending the middle east conflict and reopening the Strait of Hormuz to shipping have reached a “dead end”, mediators have said. A spokesman for theThe Islamic Republic regime told negotiators from third-party countries attempting to mediate negotiations that US demands were “unacceptable”, according to The Wall Street Journal. Tehran said it was unwilling to meet US officials in Pakistan in the coming days as planned.

Islamabad had hosted initial talks to end the Gulf war alongside foreign ministers from Egypt, Turkey and Saudi Arabia, which were never attended by the US, Israel or Iran.Officials from Turkey and Egypt are still considering new venues for talks, including Doha or Istanbul, and are also looking at fresh proposals to overcome the deadlock, according to the mediators.

Negotiations have stalled since Donald Trump, the US president, presented Tehran with a 14-point peace plan that was deemed unrealistic by the Iranian regime.

Iran has now gained leverage for its negotiating position by closing the entrance to the Persian Gulf and disrupting global oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz.

Though Trump is making ridiculous claims about his ceasefire ending the war and having crushed Iran, the US that is more keen on a peace deal as Iran has the advantage here, and to the Ayatollahs who lead that country every war is a holy war and they are never going to meekly roll over. 

Trump can bomb them back to the stone age which would be a war crime since it targets civilians, but that will take a lot of bombs and a lot of time because Iran has a huge land area. However provided Iran can fire the odd drone or missile or launch a small, fast, heavily armed boat from its mosquito fleet periodically at tankers in The Gulf, no insurance will be possible and the Strait of Hormuz remains shut. 

With Russia and China supporting Iran with weapons and technology the greatet risk of escalation for the USA is that, having seen the weakness of the western alliance, the BRICS powers might just decide the opportunity to destroy American economic dominance is too good to miss.  

The west can expect elevated gas, food and oil prices for a long time, government debt will become more expensive, living costs - already at crisis level due to misguided Net Zero policies - will continue to rise and the global economy will be plunged into recession. 

There is now no way out of this for Trump without regime change  and though he claimed the reigime had been destroyed the old guard are still in place, this is why the USA needs a negotiated peace. The only other way to end the war os a land invasion which requires hundreds of thousands of troops and offers no gurantee of success. There would be a 50 / 50 chance of another forever war like Iraq, Aghanistan or \vietnam. 

The White House and The Pentagon have miscslculated badly here, this blog warned Iran would be no pushover and most military experts said the same. The tolerance for pain from the regime is much greater than  Western poplations are prepared to put up with. I am no fan of the Islamists and have felt for a long time that Iran's theocratic regime needed to be dealt with however this is not going to end well for Trump or the global economy

New York Times Contacts Reality, Reveals How Zelensky Sabotaged Efforts To Clean Up Ukraines Corruption Problem

by Arthur Foxake 

Its always good to be reminded we are ahead of the game so the news from Kiev and Washington this week is particularly satisfying.

 A New York Times investigation published last week, (some four weeks after Boggart Blog revealed the same corrupt activity by people associated with the Kiev regime,) has revealed that over the past four years, the Ukrainian government of putative President Vobblyvoddymyr Zelensky has"systematically sabotaged" oversight of the country's state-owned companies and weapons procurement processes, "allowing graft and embezzlement to flourish,"

The New York Times investigation, funded by that organisations abundant resources, provides more detail than we were able to offer on how the government of Volodymyr Zelensky sidelined outside experts from the US and EU serving on advisory boards responsible for monitoring spending, appointing executives, and preventing corruption. This is a significant change in the media's reporting, up to now the NYT like all other major news outlets has stuck to the narrative that Ukraine was holding its own against Russia's attack and with enought support from the USA / NATO could eventually defeat Russia and bring down Putin.

From the New York Times: 

"President Volodymyr Zelensky's administration has stacked boards with loyalists, left seats empty, or stalled them from being set up at all. Leaders in Kiev even rewrote company charters to limit oversight, keeping the government in control and allowing hundreds of millions of dollars to be spent without outsiders poking around," the NYT report says.

The investigation was published amid a corruption scandal centering on close associates of  Ukrainian president Zelensky enjoying lifestyles of unbelievable excess. One close associate of the President fled the country shortly before a raid on his home exposed golden toilets and suitcases full of US Dollar bills. Officials of the NABU Anti-corruption agency have accused members of Zelensky's inner circle of embezzling $100 million from the state-owned nuclear power company, Energoatom.

"Mr. Zelensky's administration has blamed Energoatom's supervisory board for failing to stop the corruption. But it was Mr. Zelensky's government itself that neutered Energoatom's supervisory board."

In news that has not hit mainstream media yet we have learned the latest finding from NABU's Operation Midas and investigations into the Ukrainian energy sector have revealed that at least $50B was looted from Ukraine and parked in Estonian banks while front line troops were running out of ammunition. There are many implications to this, including major figures in NATO, including Kaja Kallas of Estonia and likely many more, (think Macron, Starmer, Merz...) had to know or even participate in the looting of Ukraine and the kickbacks of monies received from the taxpayers of the US and the EU.

All of that means that Trump is walking a tight-rope on ending the war, exposing the graft and keeping HATO intact. I don't see a way that he can simply walk away when the war is completed with a Russian victory without disrupting the current European paradigm in a major way.

As long as Zelensky and his cronies hang on, with support of France, Germany and Britain, the more likely it is that Trump is going to have to expose the fraud, call out major leaders and consider dissolving NATO. Frankly, I don't see how he can end the war without exposing the rotten core of the Ukrainian gangster state and shaking the EU to its neo Nazi foundations.

Many respected economists and market analysts who favour the free markets approach concur that we are heading towards a new economic reality that will see the collapse of the US$ as the default reserve currency, to be replaced not by any other fiat currency such as the Euro or the Renminbi, but by a system in which  commodities are the primary denominator of value.
