Riyadh Talks: The U.S. Learns to Bow to Reality — Russia Defines the New World Order

The unipolar era is dead. Washington just spent 4.5 hours in Riyadh learning a hard lesson: it no longer dictates terms to the world. The deep state’s mouthpieces can dress it up as “productive dialogue,” but the reality is brutal: Russia crushed the Western proxy war in Ukraine, and the U.S. now has to negotiate its own managed retreat.

It’s almost poetic. Washington, the self-proclaimed enforcer of the “rules-based order,” now sitting across from Lavrov and Ushakov, taking notes like a chastened student. This is Yalta 2.0, but this time it’s the U.S. being dictated to.

One of the key takeaways? “We couldn’t have imagined a better result,” Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff admitted after the session. Translation? Washington had to swallow Russia’s terms just to keep the talks moving. The days of “isolating” Moscow are ancient history. Now the U.S. is agreeing to normalize relations, restore embassies, and appoint negotiators to work out Ukraine’s surrender terms.

And let’s be clear: Kiev was never at the table. While Zelensky throws tantrums from the sidelines, begging for relevance, Washington and Moscow have already accepted that he’s finished. His re-election chances are zero. His NATO dreams are dead. His future? Probably some exile villa funded by whatever’s left of the billions he siphoned off.

But the real conversation in Riyadh wasn’t about Ukraine. It was about what comes next. The Americans walked in pretending they still had leverage, but walked out knowing they now need to negotiate their place in the new multipolar reality. No more NATO expansion. No more economic terrorism through sanctions. No more delusions of forcing Russia into submission.

The empire is being forced to cut a deal. This is the deep state’s worst nightmare: Washington, once the global hegemon, now begging to “normalize” relations with the very country it tried to destroy. From “crippling Russia” to “respecting Russia’s interests” in less than two years.

This is what empire collapse looks like. For years, Washington dictated terms to the world. Now, it has to ask permission just to stay in the game. The Pentagon knows it lost the war in Ukraine. The next phase is about managing the American retreat from global hegemony, because the new world is already being built, and the U.S. is no longer in charge.

Washington walked into Riyadh pretending it still ran the world and walked out learning it now needs Moscow’s permission just to stay relevant. The empire isn’t negotiating from strength anymore, it’s negotiating for survival.

‼️🇷🇺🇺🇸 Russia is ready to return to the negotiating table on Ukraine - Putin on negotiations with the US in Riyadh

▪️Russia attaches primary importance to resolving the conflict in Ukraine;
▪️On the US side, there were "completely different people" at the negotiations - without bias and condemnation;
▪️The Europeans themselves forbade themselves from contacting Moscow, and Kyiv even forbade itself from negotiating with Russia;
▪️Moscow took the first step to resume work with the US in a variety of areas where there is mutual interest, including the Middle East;
▪️The expulsion of Russian and US diplomats does not lead to anything good, now the work of diplomatic missions will resume;
▪️Russia and the United States are working on economic issues, energy markets, space and other areas.

The Russian army entered Sumy Oblast...

Our president just announced this. Well, since the president said it, I don't see any point in hiding it any longer.

We entered from Sverdlikovo to Novenkoye (and will probably go on to Basovka), developing the success we achieved the day before.

The point is straightforward. Firstly, we are thus bypassing the enemy's position, which is very inconvenient for assault. And here we can also physically reach the main supply route of the Sudzhan group of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Which will speed up its encirclement first, and then its defeat.

That is, for now, of course, this is not a full-fledged entry into Sumy Oblast with large forces. But it is obvious that after the liberation of the territory of Kursk Oblast, a security zone will be created here.

Let's keep our fingers crossed and pray for the guys.

▪️To be at the negotiating table, Ukraine must hold elections

Trump said this. According to him, Zelensky's rating in the country has fallen to 4% and he was surprised that Ukrainians are not demanding elections.

"Where is the leader in Ukraine? I hate to say this, but Zelensky's approval rating has fallen to 4%. The country is in tatters. It looks like a large-scale dismantling site. Shouldn't the people of Ukraine say that we haven't had elections in a long time?" he said.

He also noted that he was disappointed by the publications about Kiev's dissatisfaction with the negotiations between the Russian Federation and the United States on a settlement in Ukraine.

Zelensky named countries that do not support Ukraine's accession to NATO

"99% of European leaders support our accession to NATO. Slovakia, Hungary, Germany and the United States do not support it yet, but we understand that the United States plays an important role in shaping opinions," the Ukrainian representative noted

Zelensky stressed that he is raising the issue of Ukraine's accession to NATO in order to prevent the resumption of war.

‼️🇺🇦🏴‍☠️"8 targets are flying, but there is nothing to shoot down": Ukraine is running out of missiles for the American Patriot air defense systems, Zelensky whines
➖"When it's 5 am, and the commander calls me on the phone and says - we don't have missiles for the Patriot systems near this city. He says - now there are 8 missiles approaching, but we don't have missiles", - the drug addict said.
▪️The US under Trump did not approve new military aid to Ukraine. Only supplies approved by Biden were sent.

🇺🇦 Zelensky reacted nervously to Trump's statements, which estimated his rating at 4% - he spoke about disinformation and a change of power:

"I've heard more than 57% in various opinion polls. So if someone wants to change me right now, it won't work right now. Since we're talking about 4%, we've seen this disinformation, we understand that it comes from Russia... Trump lives in this disinformation space."

In light of Trump's statements, Rada deputy Dubinsky previously conducted a poll among his readers on Telegram, where he proposed a floor cleaning mop as a competitor in the elections, and

Medvedev - on the elimination of Zelensky by the Americans:

The dressed-up puppet pretending to be the president of a disintegrated country has found himself in an extremely unpleasant situation. In addition to the problems on the front and the complexities of the internal situation, it seems that his main patron is really angry with him. Which is to be expected after being bitten by the rabid Kiev critter.

Trump speaks sharply about the responsibility of the Bandera puppet for starting the war, demands an account of the plundered money, a new legitimization of the overdue creature in the elections and recognition of the realities on the ground. And of course, a reckoning for earlier assistance in the form of handing over half the value of country 404 (rare earth deal).

The rat is cornered. Its behavior can be completely unpredictable. It frantically scurries around, squeaks frantically, and usually, in such cases, eventually rushes into a counterattack. Therefore, any provocation can be expected from a shaking rodent with running eyes in order to disrupt the settlement and to continue the war to the last Ukrainian. He urgently needs to turn the tables. To show the "animal face of the orcs", and for this purpose all means are good. Up to strikes on their cities, on their civilian population or even the use of weapons of mass destruction like "dirty bomb".

Urgent deratization will solve the problem. And it's better if it's done by the very people who used to feed the nasty gray rats with long tails.

🤔 Is that a price, or just a good outcome?
