On September 30, 1938, UK PM Neville Chamberlain's "peace in our time" declaration - after returning from a Munich meeting with Nazi
Germany's Adolph Hitler - was prelude to WW II less than one year later.
Addressing the G20 summit last month by videolink, US-installed Ukrainian puppet Zelensky's so-called "peace formula" was a virtual declaration of perpetual war on Russia and its people as ordered by his US master.
At the time, Chairman of Russia's lower House State Duma, Leonid Slutsky, slammed his remarks, saying:
A "performance addressed to his Western patrons...indicate(d) that...statements about negotiations are nothing but fakes."
Zelensky is a powerless puppet with no say over all things related to Russia.
Dominant Biden regime hardliners and congressional RINOs are hellbent for perpetuating war on the Russian Federation to the last Ukrainian.
Zelensky's so-called "peace formula" was head-fake deception, a nonstarter for Russia, assuring perpetual war.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova, slammed his deception, saying:
He prioritizes greater "military and financial aid" for continued war-making.
Zelensky reportedly discussed his "peace formula" deception with the fake Biden at the White House.
Ahead of their meeting, Biden regime propaganda coordinator, John Kirby, said the following:
They'll "talk about...a just peace and what looks like" it - by perpetuating war, he failed to explain.
Supported by undemocratic Dems and RINOs, a $1.7 trillion wasteful omnibus spending bill includes another $45 billion for Ukrainian Nazis to continue forever war on Russia.
And on Wednesday, the Biden regime announced another near-$2 billion for continued war over pursuit of peace.
Yet according to Kirby's perversion of reality, Vladimir "Putin is obviously not interested in diplomacy right now (sic), quite the contrary (sic)."
"He's interested in killing more civilian Ukrainians (sic)."
Separately on Wednesday, head of the Russian Foreign Ministry's North American Department, Alexander Darchiyev, warned about escalated confrontation by the empire of lies against his nation.
If continues down this dangerous path, "severed diplomatic ties will become a reality," adding:
"We will not tolerate malicious provocations that leave us with no other choice."
Things are ominously heading toward possible major confrontation - launched by hegemon USA against Russia.
And this on Wednesday from GOP neocon hardliner, Lindsey Graham, saying:
"How does this war end?"
"When Russia breaks and they take Putin out."
"Anything short of that, the war's gonna continue."
"We're in (this) to win (sic), and the only way you're gonna win...is to break the Russian military and have somebody in Russia take Putin out."
Graham's extremist view is likely shared by dominant likeminded hardliners infesting both wings of the US war party.
Did his remark, quoted above, virtually call for launching WW III?
What's becoming more likely will be made-in-the-USA if occurs.
Separately in remarks to the press on Thursday, Vladimir Putin said the following:
"I want to stress this."
"Everything that is happening, and everything connected with the special military operation, is an absolutely forced and necessary measure."
"We should be grateful to our military, our troops, officers, our soldiers for what they are doing for Russia, defending its interests, sovereignty and, above all, protecting our people."
On Russia's economy, "despite...devastation and catastrophe predicted for us...nothing like that is happening."
"Russia is performing much better than many G20 countries."
"I have no doubt that every goal we set will be achieved" militarily and economically.
Since Soviet days, the empire of lies "ha(s) been trying to divide us and then run the separate parts."
By 2014 coup d'etat in Kiev, the Obama/Biden regime launched proxy war along Russia's border in 2014 by use of Ukrainian foot soldiers.
The empire of lies left Russia with "no other choice than the actions (taken) late last February" in self-defense after years of conflict resolution diplomacy failed because 3 US regimes undermined its good faith efforts.
On supplying a battery of Patriot air defense missiles to Ukrainian Nazis, Putin called it an "old system" - technologically inferior to Russia's state-of-the-art systems, adding:
"There is always an antidote."
The Biden regime is supplying Kiev with Patriot missiles "in vain."
"We will weed (them) out."
Kiev is entirely dependent on what's supplied by the US/West.
"All of its manufacturing capabilities will be destroyed soon, whereas our framework is being expanded," Putin stressed.
Russia will achieve its publicly stated aims to demilitarize and deNazify Ukraine, what's been clear from day-one of its liberating SMO.
Looking ahead, Russia intends to increase its military to a force strength of 1.5 million.
Defense Minister, Sergey Shoigu, announced the expansion on Wednesday, citing NATO's inclusion of Finland and Sweden in the war-making alliance.
And in remarks to Russia's senior defense officials days earlier, Putin stressed the need to modernize Russia's nuclear capabilities - calling them key to guarantee the nation's sovereignty against the threat posed by the empire of lies and its NATO vassals.
