Sigh.

You do understand how propaganda works, right? It works by zooming in on molehills until they appear like mountains. So while I wouldn’t rule out that Johnson the Idiot said something unwise to Zelensky government, I also don’t automatically think that it means Zelenski was “forced to not give up”.

farquaad-point redditor!

I also don’t automatically think that it means Zelenski was “forced to not give up”.

  1. Ukraine negotiates ceasefire.
  2. BJ tells Ukraine to not go through with it.
  3. Ukraine does not go through with it.

Why else would Ukraine have reversed course if not for one of its NATO puppetmasters commanding it to? Either it's that, or BJ making a really impassioned argument for sending a bunch of Ukranians to an early grave and Zelensky fell for it, or Zelensky just changed his mind all on his own and the timing is a pure coincidence.

What leverage exactly do you think Johnson had over Ukraine? He hasn’t even got leverage over his toilet seat.

Ukraine has the most corrupt state in the world, the UK has a shit load of money.
