13. Ukraine has a lot of countries behind it

so they're in a position to tell Putin and his pet piggy in the White House to take that agreement and shove it where the sun never shines.

Ukraine has no mechanism by which to cede territory to anyone for any reason. Putin is just going to have to bleed his country to death trying to keep what he's managed to conquer.

There is no negotiation with Putin. He's a hard core terrorist, the finest product of the KGB. His word on anything is no good and treaties are a waste of paper.
