I happened to see an early version of the "peace plan", about 6 months ago. It was a purely Russian concept and was nearly identical to what we see today (certainly the 50/50 Russian assets + EU investment in Ukraine reconstruction was there).
However two items are glaringly missing.
First, a proposal that US (investors) bail post-war Russia out of a pending cash- and investment-strapped recession, "like in the 90s". This was meant as an inducement for Trump (whether as a legitimate US sweetener or as one for friends and family, that wasn't explicit)
The second "offering" was a new Russia-US alliance against China. A lot of "Christian alliance" demagoguery was included under that item.
I am absolutely certain that this is a Russian, not a jointly developed, proposal. I also cannot imagine the Russians didn't include the 1st of the two extra items. I can see however how that wouldn't be part of the publicly leaked plan.
On item 2, can't be sure if Russia dared to include the anti China offer.
Again, if it did, it wouldn't be public.
So all in all, it might be a 30-point plan after all.

Unfortunate that @christogrozev.bsky.social has not shared here the remarks he published on X about the Trump-Putin plan for Ukraine.
I'm taking the liberty of doing it for him.

La commission d'enquête tentant de trouver des liens LFI/islamisme vire au fiasco.

Il y a été auditionné le directeur des renseignements de la préfecture de police de Paris.

Il dit qu'il n'y a aucun lien entre gauche radicale et islamisme radical.

Par contre il y en a avec l'extrême droite. 🤡

Manfred Weber hat letzte Woche die Brandmauer eingerissen: Konservative, Rechtspopulisten und Rechtsextreme gingen beim Abräumen des Lieferkettengesetz Hand in Hand.

Wichtig ist: Die Grünen warnten davor, hatten Weber ein Angebot vorgelegt. Der ignorierte das, wohl schlicht aus Machtkalkül.

Innenministerium prüft Millionenförderung für AfD-nahe Stiftung Bekommt Erika Steinbachs Desiderius-Erasmus-Stiftung erstmals Geld aus dem Bundesetat? Die Grünen rufen Innenminister Alexander Dobrindt auf, die Auszahlung zu verhindern.

Das Bundesinnenministerium von Alexander Dobrindt (CSU) will der AfD-nahen Desiderius-Erasmus-Stiftung (DES) anscheinend Zugang zu staatlicher Förderung gewähren. Es wäre das erste Mal, dass eine AfD-nahe Stiftung solche Unterstützung aus dem Bundeshaushalt erhält.

“The plan was negotiated by Steve Witkoff, a real-estate developer with no historical, geographical, or cultural knowledge of Russia or Ukraine, and Kirill Dmitriev, who heads Russia’s sovereign-wealth fund and spends most of his time making business deals.”

We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com.

We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.

An absolute scandal compounded in this case by failure of French government and EU institutions to forcefully react and sanction in turn those who have sanctioned ICC judges and prosecutors. Makes a total mockery of FR/EU's repeated commitment to the rule of law/ICC

Is Trump Giving Illegal Orders? Dems Just Blew That Question Wide Open From the boat bombings to deportations to prosecutions, the evidence mounts. And the speaker of the House could get to the bottom of it if he wanted to. Yeah, right.

The correct answer to MAGA outrage over the Dem video is this: Are you effing kidding me? Of course it's reasonable to warn that Trump might be giving illegal orders.

The evidence is strong that he actually is giving illegal orders! I went through that evidence here:

There are three lines shown. (1) Prior conviction (which rises from around 9,000 in January 2025 to just over 16,000 in November 2025), (2) Pending criminal charges (which rises from around 5,000 to 15,000), and (3) No criminal record (which rises from around 1,000 to 21,000).

NEW: ICE has finally released post-shutdown detention data. The latest data reveals that a full 40%(!) of people arrested in the interior and held in ICE detention have no criminal record; no criminal charges or prior convictions. That is up from just 4% when Trump took office.

The New York Times' story about Trump calling for the execution of members of Congress ran on Page 16 today, with an itty-bitty promo on the front about halfway down the page.
No wonder Trump thinks he can get away with anything.
