The fighter jets seen in the video are U.S. F-35 supersonic stealth aircraft — the country’s most advanced multirole fighters.

    Did they also brag about the fact that Putin took a train across the country, due to the real possibility that incompetent air defense would likely shoot him down?

      He made america get on it’s knees and blow him in front of the planet, that’s pretty much a win.

      I would have imagined the advanced stealth F-35s would’ve stayed out of sight.

      The fighter is only that close to help stroke egos.

      Feels like it would be a normal thing but we don’t hear about the others because they don’t brag and aren’t dictators, maybe.

    Zelensky needs to host them both in Ukraine along with Vance and Johnson, end them, and then just act like nothing happened. Just say they never arrived, or were going to go have drinks together after the talks and no one heard from them since.

    Seriously, what the fuck is Russia going to do? Go to war with you? Lol. As for the US, you just solved our biggest immediate problems, and you’ll get your aid back once emergency elections are over

      In a world of people in charge flouting the rule of law and order, and even basic universal morality and reality, I see this as a completely reasonable course of action for Zelensky.

        Its the problem with authoritarian regimes. If you remove the topmost authority, things get real fucky for the country real quic

        Edit: except when there is planned succession. So like … North Korea, Saudi Arabia and Iran?

      Unfortunately, a whole lot more people than just Trump, Vance, and Johnson need to be in attendance to have a meaningful impact.

      I will personally fund the ammunition for this. Heck with a GoFundMe we might be able to get t-shirts for everybody.

      China, India, Iran, and the rest of BRICS would retaliate hard. Russia is doing this with BRICS, as an agent of BRICS. That’s part of why this war is being toed so carefully, because it is much, much bigger than Ukraine and Russia.
