Hold on, so Steve Witkoff was participating in the Signal group discussing war plans against Houthis while being physically in Moscow, perhaps even in the Kremlin? He met Putin late on March 13. Obviously the odds of Russia not compromising any device he would bring there are pretty slim.
Witkoff saying that the overwhelming majority in the four Ukrainian regions (Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Donetsk, Luhansk) voted to be part of Russia is preposterous. The 2022 referendums were sham. The majority in Zaporizhzhia live in areas under Ukrainian rule where there was no referendum at all.

The math of the air war in Ukraine is simple. Yes, air defenses are needed but there will never be enough Patriots etc. The only way to stop Putin from bombarding Ukrainian cities is by helping Kyiv strike deep inside Russia, against the Russian defense-industrial base, air and missile installations
