Trump's foreign policy has lined up the countries he threatens to invade. High up on the list is Greenland. Recently he added Cuba to the list. All of this started with capturing Maduro. See my Forbes article below.

Disunity over Ukraine aid, faltering leadership in Europe, and U.S. diplomacy that flatters Moscow all play into Putin’s hands.
If this continues, the West could lose Ukraine — and its unity — without a single battle.

Russia invaded Ukraine. Why does this matter to the world?
Food shortage, energy crisis, lack of security and nuclear threat – all because Russia started a war to pursue its imperialistic fantasy.
