Blinken warns of Russia's military strength in Ukraine conflict.
TL;DR Summary
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has warned against supporting a ceasefire or peace talks to end the war in Ukraine until Kyiv gains strength and can negotiate on its own terms. Blinken said that heeding calls from Russia and others for negotiations now would result in a false “Potemkin peace” that wouldn’t secure Ukraine’s sovereignty or enhance European security. Ukrainian officials have given confusing signals about whether a counteroffensive is coming or already underway.
