Today, the Russians struck a civilian bus with a drone, killing nine people. On the same day, it was revealed that the United States has halted efforts to gather information on Russian war crimes. Also today, the U.S. is trying to pressure Ukraine into simply forgiving the Russians.
Today, the Russians attacked an evacuation vehicle of the “Proliska” humanitarian mission using FPV drones, — Radio Liberty reports.
Proliska staff member Yevhen Tkachov was evacuating a married couple from the village of Zoria near Kostiantynivka. Two other vehicles carrying civilians who had also agreed to evacuate were following his car.
His vehicle was first struck by a drone with a fragmentation munition, and then two more drones attempted to target the people. Yevhen and a civilian woman were wounded.
So much for the Russians’ so-called “truce.”
Sunday. Christian holiday before Easter. Barbaric brutal murder of civilians in Sumy.
Russians did it intentionally.
But never mind, @SteveWitkoff will thank Putin again and lick his bloody hands.
🟡 SCOOP: The Trump administration is considering recognizing Ukraine’s Crimea region as Russian territory as part of any future agreement to end Moscow’s war on Kyiv, according to two people familiar with the matter.
Administration officials have also discussed the possibility of having the US urge the United Nations to do the same, according to both people. Such a request would align the Trump administration with the position of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has long seen Crimea as his nation’s territory.

Trump: “We’re doing pretty well with Russia…I'll be speaking to President Putin on Tuesday. .. We'll be talking about land. We'll be talking about power plants ... Dividing up certain assets.”
Ukraine isn’t “picking on” anyone; it’s fighting for its survival. Ukrainians are not “encircled,” though he pronounces that word as if he just heard it for the first time today, which I reckon he did. From Putin via Witkoff. Utter shambles.
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick this morning, per Fox Biz transcript:
“Just remember, the reason Greenland is part of Denmark, did you ever think about that? Why is Greenland part of Denmark? Because Erik the Red, Erik the Red, was this Viking, right? He was kicked out of Denmark for murdering people. He went to Iceland. He was kicked out of Iceland for murdering people. He goes to Greenland. And what does he do? He murders people and takes over Greenland.”
Here’s a 'preview' of that 'ball' from the Russians—a ballistic missile launch targeting the city of Kryvyi Rih, hours after U.S.-Ukrainian negotiations.

Today was a good day for peace. Thanks to @POTUS's leadership and under the gracious hospitality of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, we are one step closer to restoring durable peace for Ukraine. The ball is now in Russia's court.
