Vladimir Putin has offered to halt his invasion of Ukraine across the current front line as part of efforts to reach a peace deal with US President Donald Trump, according to people familiar with the matter.

Just another bait-and-switch, to dupe cantaloupe caligula into agreeing a “peace deal”, which the US won’t be able to enforce anyways. Moving on. This guys word is worth less than dirt anyways.
Counter-offer, Vlad: Fuck aaaall the way off back to Russia, then “fall” out a window so someone else can get started on blaming you for everything going wrong and reverse all your horrific garbage.
Sound good?
Fine if ukraine is now formally a European ally (full proper mutual defence)
Might be worth it, but Ukraine deserves it’s territory returned.
Unfortunately “deserves” doesn’t work in international politics. Otherwise a certain someone would’ve slipped on a banana peel out of a window.
This would be at least a stable peace
And veto-proof by the US until we’re rid of Fanta Quisling.
You spelled 2014 lines wrong.
The borders set in 1994 are non-negotiable.
Absolutely, however it might be necessary to take some 10m strip of land on the Russian side to build a border wall to keep them from invading again in the future.
I did read right now, that a big depot of munition and bombs got blown up by Ukraine… Maybe he just wants to buy time?
OK, we’re out of bullets. Let’s call it a draw?
what ever do you mean:

Go hit more ammo depots. double, triple tap this one just to be sure.
Get the fuck out of Ukraine, Vladimir Puto.
When the aggressor is on his back foot, and looking to secure his gains by offering "peace," you keep fighting.
Translation:
Please don’t press us, as we can’t hold the line.
This really is a tremendous show of weakness… unless it’s a ploy somehow.
The ploy is that when Ukraine refuses it gives the US (Trump/Krasnov) an excuse to stop delivering military aid to Ukraine.
yea most likely they want to reduce local and global support to Zelensky by saying “look we offered peace but he did not take”, of course they will likely offer some unacceptable terms.
That makes a lot of sense.
Does Trump care about constructing justifications for his actions though? Seems like he enjoys shooting from the hip and, if ever in doubt, opts for strategies that will piss the most people off.
He has lackeys to make weak excuses for his actions.
The greater concern is Trump lifting sanctions and starting to deliver military aid to Russia, or even worse, commit US troops.
You sound grumpy.
Kindly fuck off, Putin.
Obviously he's full of shit, but it's funny to note that because Ukraine currently has presence in Russia, stopping along the current front line would mean giving up Russian territory to Ukraine.
Maybe Putin is realising that the Russian economy will break before Ukraine?
Putin must be losing ground in Belgorod?
Play the Uno Reverse! Push into Russian territory and annex as much of it as possible whine their forces are weakened
Just like that Easter "truce" he offered?
Putin what about we fast forward to the point where you shoot yourself in a bunker? That would make everything better

Reparations need to be extensive.
He can halt along the current lines while still bombing whatever’s behind them though.
