It seems it would be hard to negotiate because Europe and US is instigating. They would antagonize him just like they did when they weren’t doing a lot of damage. Negotiations should of happened when he pulled his troops out and asked him what he wanted. Also if the Russian people wanted to succeed or stay and if they wanted to stay be there at the table.
If they negotiated anything it would have to be mutual not trying to make Putin look weak because he isn’t. Nothing worse than a man with a bad temper and his own army.
Now you got a lot of Ukrainian’s well if they totaled your town killed your friends or family how would you feel?
Might be too late when there talking about hanging him war crimes.
Maybe we can hand over Soros and Schwab for peace a financial reparations.

Mr Copper
Come to think of it that’s about what he’s doing.
In the girls case though she shouldn’t of parked there, told him she’s leaving town told work to say she’s not there anymore carried a gun herself or quit that job and no forwarding. Problem is if they aren’t warned they don’t think like them “ because they wouldn’t think of doing something like that” so it doesn’t cross their mind what’s in his.
Something like that you can’t negotiate with but with a barrel of a gun. Now he still doesn’t have her but might have a new buddy named bubba.
@ipso facto Right, I meant buy it for the Europeans. They seem to want it.
And for decades they lean on the USA for everything they want.
Mr.Copper @ 15:14
I don’t think we’d want it!
goldielocks @ 15:07
The only hope for the Ukrainians is a negotiated peace. If Zelensky worked for his country this is what he’d do.
“own nothing” LOL that’s right there’ll be nothing left!
So ends yet another joke mkt day
Pm’s caught a good bid over the weekend, but scum made sure that was stopped dead and closed PM shares on the days lows. despite new Hi break outs…..The Dollar finished near it’s Hi’s and the SM managed a 250 plus Dow pt rally in 15 mins on the back of nothing, into the close……
Yet again the closes say nothing special is happening anywhere…..yeah sure.
@goldielocks @ 15:07 re Hes Ruining The Whole Country
This reminds me of a recent local story. A guy who lost his girlfriend, and couldn’t get her back, waited in the parking garage and shot her numerous times, killed her.
A typical….”If I can’t have her, now nobody else can”. Hes obviously in jail now. They were both people of color.
@Maddod, @ipso facto, Re Ukraine
If Europe and the USA are so in love with Ukraine, why don’t they just print the money, like they always do, and offer to BUY the damn place. What could it be worth? A lousy few trillion? The Russians living there would feel sold out though. All the American manufacturers were sold out a long time ago.

At the same time Russia is having his generals order the attack on citizens and leaving their city’s demolished. He’s taking a wrecking ball to the whole country leaving citizens with no where to live and angering people from every civilized nation. This is not focused on Russian speaking areas like Crimea. He’s ruining the whole county, attempting to take over the capital and everything else and killing even children purposely. Pretty soon if not already people are gonna want to see the same done to him. They are saying some things are staged but at the same time I don’t see Putin denying it.
On the other end Europe has been instigating by media and now talking about Sweden and Finland joining NATO out of the blue to play chicken with him?
Well good, do they have their military ready or are they expecting others like US to go sacrifice ourselves for their wars again or to aid Schwab in his great reset.
Is this what he meant by you’ll own nothing and be happy?
US Dollar And Gold Both On Five Year Highs, Think About That.
Does it mean Gold prices adjusted for the high dollar mean Gold is very under priced arounf $2,000/oz?
Dollar: https://finviz.com/futures_charts.ashx?t=CURRENCIES&p=m1
Gold: https://finviz.com/futures_charts.ashx?t=METALS&p=m1
So we should be happy, on a one year chart Americans only have to pay 11% more to buy an ounce, but the Japanese have to pay 29% more for an ounce of gold. Europeans 23% more. So we are the luckiest one.

“why is no-one trying to do a Peace deal”
Psychopaths seem to be running things. As long as the death and suffering is by someone else then they’re OK with it.
ipso facto
heard the US is there…as I think I have mentioned….why is no-one trying to do a Peace deal…..it’s all so obviously staged.
A Welcome Turn
There’s nothing Democrats can do to stop Latinos from abandoning Biden in droves. When he and his party chose socialism and wokeism over the American Dream they lost us, writes GLORIA ROMERO, former Democratic leader of the California State Senate
Maddog @ 10:41
I’ve heard that Americans are there too.
Yeah let’s sleepwalk ourselves into a very dangerous war! The sooner Ukraine recognizes reality the safer for the world. The neocons would like this war to continue as long as possible.
Alright who wasn’t on the job this morning? Gold was up nice almost at 2000.
Silver hanging in there.

Mining companies have to aggressively rebuild their gold reserves with M&A – Ian Telfer
(Kitco News) – Mining companies need to aggressively grow their reserves through mergers and acquisitions if they want to attract new investors, according to mining legend Ian Telfer.
In the last few years, the mining sector has seen a significant improvement in margins as higher prices and solid production has driven cash flow to record levels. However, Telfer said that many producers are making a mistake trying to attract investors with share buybacks and increased dividends. He added that this is not a sustainable trend for the sector.
“I don’t know any investor who buys a gold stock for the dividend,” he said. “The only people that buy gold shares are people who think the price of gold is going higher.”
Instead of buying back shares, Telfer said that mining companies should be using their growing stockpile to look for acquisition targets. He added that in the current environment, the only way a company is going to grow is through aggressive M&A activity.
Hundreds protest in Spain against redevelopment of Roman-era gold mine
Hundreds of people gathered in the municipality of Tapia de Casariego, northern Spain, to protest against the exploitation of the nearby Salave gold deposit, local media reported.
The ancient mine, initially discovered and exploited by the Romans in the 1st century and now considered one of the largest unexplored gold deposits in Europe, is being prospected by Exploraciones Mineras del Cantábrico (EMC), a Spanish company backed by both local and international capital.
