The Ukraine war thread

I seem to recall reading, on more than one occasion, that in 1948 Tito refused a similar invitational summons from Stalin:
An adviser to Volodymyr Zelensky has told BBC News that Ukraine "immediately rejected" Vladimir Putin's suggestion that the two leaders should meet in Moscow.

Remember Melnikov.
Which one? You’ll have to jog my memory. Only the famous Constructivist architect comes to my mind at the moment.

No problem.
In the meantime, I think this breakdown of the past week’s theatre of the incorrigible is not at all off the mark:
“Trump is very good when he can bully people,” Duss told the Kyiv Post’s Washington correspondent, adding “and Putin is someone who, in Trump’s words, has cards.”
…..Trump clearly feels that Putin is someone who intimidates him… Putin is someone who knows how to handle Donald Trump,” he added.
…..Duss argues that Trump’s belief in his own “skill as a negotiator” is misplaced when it comes to international security. “He might be a good negotiator when it comes to building a new casino, but he is clearly not a skilled negotiator or diplomat,” Duss said.
