Moscow hit by 'massive' drone attack, Russia says, ahead of US-Ukraine peace talks

Source: BBC

The overnight attack in Moscow comes hours before planned talks in Saudi Arabia between Ukrainian and US officials, where Zelensky's head of office Andriy Yermak is expected to speak with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

The meeting between the two delegations follows a clash between Zelensky and Trump at the White House last month, after which the US paused military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine.

Rubio has said that he hoped the pause in aid could be "resolved" but that the negotiations on Tuesday "would be key to that".

The suspension "came about because we felt that they [Ukraine] were not committed to any sort of peace process", he said, and "if that changes, obviously our posture can change".

The only reason Russia would admit it is if it's either untrue or to their advantage to claim. Lying pigs.

"Peace" my balls. They've seized control of the White House. Emergency times, go figure.

Absolute baller move by Zelenskyy if true. The only thing fascists respect is strength, so head into the 'talks' having caused a great deal of damage immediately before. Love it.
