Russiske sikkerhedspolitiske eksperter har hævdet, at man kunne gennemføre militære aktiviteter mod NATO under tærsklen for artikel 5. De mange krænkelser af alliancens suverænitet viser, at de nok har en pointe. Så længe alliancens supermagt er på den forkerte side, er Ruslands handlefrihed enorm.

Trumps ord er netop ord, kun ord. Russerne spiller ham godt, lader som hans ligegyldige teatertorden betyder noget. Det gør den ikke. Når den nuværende frist er passeret vil der stadig intet ske.

Ingen amerikanske våbenleverancer, som i slet ingen. Trump er Putins bedste asset.

Så har Trump udlagt endnu et røgslør for at skjule sin støtte til Rusland. Putin har fået yderligere 50 dage til at forsætte sin terror mod Ukraine før han måske, måske ikke bliver ramt af virkningsløse sanktioner fra støjsenderen i Washington.

Det er ikke rigtigt at Trump har givet op, han viser bare at han er på fjendens hold. Han er blot Putins spytslikkende lakaj.

If you ever wondered how the KGB manipulated foreigners and got them to repeat Soviet propaganda, spend some time listening to Steve Witkoff talk about his wonderful conversations with Vladimir Putin.

Magen til amatør-diplomat skal man lede længe efter.
Witkoff on Ukraine: "There's a view within the country of Russia that these are Russian territories, that there are referendums within these territories that justify these actions ... I just don't see that [Putin] wants to take all of Europe ... I take him as his word."

Putins skødehund den 🍊🤡 lukker russiske løgne ud. Han er så ubeskrivelig fuld af 💩
🇺🇸🤦 "Tomorrow, I will speak with President Putin to save Ukrainian soldiers who are in a very difficult situation. They are surrounded by Russian forces. If it weren’t for me, they’d be gone already. I managed to convince them to hold off for now."

So: Russia flatly rejected one Trump envoy (Kellogg), made the next one (Witkoff) wait for eight hours, rejected the ceasefire, and instructed Trump that his job is to give Russia what it wants. That’s what Trump means by "respect" I guess.

Ukraine accepterede det amerikanske forslag om en våbenhvile uden betingelser. Ruslands tøven, kan kun forstås som en afvisning, men desværre er 🤡 i Det Hvide Hus nok indstillet på at bøje af for russiske betingelser - og præsentere fiaskoen som “the greatest deal ever”

Trump likes being #2, he likes doing the PR work, being in front of the camera, getting the adulation, but serving the boss. Musk will dominate him at home and Putin will dominate him abroad. He will deliver their lines, as he has just done for Putin in shocking fashion, and does for Musk every day.

Putin’s mouthpieces are in a lather of excitement over the US administration’s willingness to make a deal to their liking.

Jeg udtalte mig i går til Berlingske om spørgsmålet om at sende danske og europæiske soldater til Ukraine.

Efter min vurdering kan en af Putins hedeste drømme være ved at gå i opfyldelse. Rusland får territorier og en pause, USA svækker Ukraine ved at stjæle dets ressourcer og Europa svækkes.

DK kan realistisk set kun præstere en bataljon.

Hvis den skal til Ukraine, kan den ikke være i Baltikum.

Og skal den afsted på fuld tid, kan Hæren næppe levere en tung brigade i 2032.

Imens kan Putin glæde sig over at få sine drømme opfyldt.

This is outrageous - in collusion with Russia, the Trump oligarchy is trying to strangle Ukraine. While Russia plans to take Ukrainian land, the US plans to steal it’s resources.

Hans’ comment is spot on. Europe must stand up against MAGA lies and Putin’s imperial fantasies. They cannot be ignored. Europe has to pay whatever it may cost to defend its freedom and determine its own future.
With Vance’s bridge-burning speech in Munich, Europe got to see first hand the twisted MAGA drivel of distortions and lies that we have suffered for years here in the US and are subject to daily.

A couple of fact checks:

- amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/02/...

- x.com/care2much18/...
Vance uses half-truths to lecture a European audience well aware of the threat of authoritarian rule | CNN
It felt like a speech, if delivered on X.com, laden surely with community notes.

Dette er en sand europæisk leder. Han siger tingene som de er - Putin er den mest indflydelsesrige person i NATO.

Det skal vi europæere lave om på, og vi får ingen støtte fra Putins nyttige idiot i Det Hvide Hus.

Trump and his gang of morons demand that Europe takes care of it’s own security, but it won’t be at table when European security is discussed 🤯
⚡️Europe won't participate in peace negotiations, but its interests to be considered, Kellogg says.

Speaking at the Munich Security Conference, Kellogg mentioned the Minsk II deal of 2015, saying that it involved "a lot of people" but didn't work out.

The audacity of Vance scolding Europe for having annulled Romanian election results due to Russian interference, representing a president who violently physically attacked the US system of governance and refused to acknowledge his defeat, still claiming the elections was stolen, is simply disgusting
