The Guardian reports that the U.S. plan incl several lines that were certainly drafted in RU before being translated. In EN they sound unnatural and out of place.
Example, 3rd point: “Russia is expected not to invade neighbouring countries, and NATO is expected not to expand further.”

…leaving US to rely on its newly found “friends” - Russia, North Korea, and the Middle East..
EU, Trump understands money talks. Through Rutte, he demanded you to invest 5% GDP in purchases from him - and joked about adding 10% markup “just because”. You pay, you demand. Use your position wisely

🧵 U.S. wants Ukraine to sign a framework of the deal by next Thursday, threatening to cut intel and weapons.
Few things:
Weapons are bought by Europe.
Intel is shared as part of a global network.
What if EU dared to say - we SHALL NOT BUY from the US and we SHALL NOT share our intel with you?
