In an interview with Fox News on March 23, U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff discussed negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, expressing his optimism about Russian President Vladimir Putin's commitment to peace.

Witkoff, who brokered the now broken Jan. 15 ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, has become a leading figure in negotiations regarding Russia and Ukraine.

When asked whether he was convinced that Putin was seeking peace, he responded in the affirmative: "I feel that he wants peace," said Witkoff.

History shows absolute expansion over different cultures is a self constricting trap. Every now and then a fool tries with different tech and eventually the power bubble bursts and we all got to deal with the rubble.

Rome had an easy start because most of Europe wasn't fortified yet. Try taking India kingdom by kingdom.
