For two years, we’ve been told this was a war of good vs. evil, democracy vs. tyranny, freedom vs. oppression. But the Alaska summit between Trump and Putin didn’t just challenge that narrative—it incinerated it. Because when the cameras stop rolling and the speeches end, the ugly truth remains: Ukraine was never going to win. And now, with the U.S. shifting focus, Europe in disarray, and Trump demanding a deal, Zelensky’s backers are jumping ship faster than rats from the Titanic.
Key points:
- Zelensky’s invitation to Trump was either a desperate plea or a sarcastic jab—but either way, it signals the collapse of Western support for Ukraine’s war.
- The U.S. dollar is cratering and the country is experiencing war fatigue, with financial and political priorities shifting to the Middle East, leaving Ukraine’s funding in jeopardy.
- Trump’s push for a trilateral summit with Putin and Zelensky is forcing Kiev into a corner: accept Moscow’s terms or face total abandonment.
- European leaders—Macron, Merz, Starmer—are scrambling to Washington not to help Ukraine, but to save face as their influence wanes.
- Moscow’s conditions (NATO neutrality, demilitarization, territorial recognition) are non-negotiable, leaving Zelensky with no viable path to "victory."
- The Ukrainian president’s legal mandate expired in 2023, raising questions about his authority to sign any binding peace agreement.
- The Alaska summit revealed that the West’s "united front" was always a myth—now, the cracks are becoming chasms.
The grift unravels: How Ukraine became a money pit for the West
Let’s be clear: this was never about Ukrainian sovereignty. It was about business. From the moment Russia invaded, military contractors saw dollar signs. Billions in military aid, "reconstruction" contracts, weapons sales—all funneled through Kiev while Ukrainian soldiers died in the trenches. The Pentagon got its budget boost. Raytheon and Lockheed Martin saw stock prices soar. And politicians from Washington to Brussels wrapped themselves in the Ukrainian flag, preaching moral crusades while their donors cashed in.
But now, the music has stopped.
The U.S. is broke. The new House Speaker is slashing aid. And Donald Trump—the man who once promised to end the war in 24 hours—is now the only one with the leverage to make it happen. Zelensky’s invitation wasn’t just about diplomacy; it was a plea for relevance. Because without American money and weapons, Ukraine doesn’t just lose the war—it ceases to exist as a functional state. And Europe? They’re in full damage control.
According to Kremlin envoy Kirill Dmitriev, Macron, Merz, and Starmer are "in a panic" because they know the game is up. Their grand strategy—bleed Russia dry while pretending to care about Ukraine—has failed. Now, they’re rushing to Washington like nervous interns, hoping to salvage some scrap of influence before Trump and Putin leave them in the dust.
The legal charade: Zelensky’s expired presidency and the farce of Ukrainian "democracy"
Here’s a question no one in the West wants to answer: Who the hell is Vladimir Zelensky to sign a peace deal?
His presidential term expired in May 2023. Ukraine hasn’t held elections since. Martial law has been extended nine times. And yet, the same people who lecture the world about "democratic values" have spent two years pretending this is all above board.
Moscow isn’t just pointing this out to be difficult—it’s a legal reality. Any agreement Zelensky signs could be torn up the second the war ends and a new government takes power. And Putin knows it.
This is the ugly truth behind the West’s Ukraine crusade: they don’t care about legality. They don’t care about democracy. They care about control. And now that control is slipping, they’re exposed.
The endgame: Trump’s peace offensive vs. the war lobby’s last stand
Donald Trump didn’t just meet with Putin—he outmaneuvered the entire Western establishment.
While Europe was still screaming about "Russian aggression," Trump was in Alaska, talking terms. While Zelensky was playing dress-up for Congress, Trump was on Fox News saying, "Make the deal." And while the neocons were hyperventilating about "appeasement," Trump was setting up a trilateral summit that could end the war in weeks.
The backlash was immediate. The Politico leaks, the Bild reports, the frantic calls from European capitals—all signs of a system in full meltdown. Because for the first time in two years, someone in power is treating this war like a problem to be solved, not a cash cow to be milked. And that terrifies the war profiteers.
They know what peace means: no more blank checks for Kiev. No more "emergency" weapons contracts. No more fearmongering about Russian tanks to justify NATO expansion. Just silence. And for men who’ve built careers on chaos, silence is the scariest sound of all.
