If he were to assume the presidency right after Trump’s term ended, what would be his first 3 steps to restore people’s trust in government ? Also, in his opinion, why did Americans elected Trump for the second time ?

Is the number of nuclear warheads Ukraine gave up in 1994 for security commitments from the USA, Russia and UK confirmed in the Budapest memorandum in 1994 and the joint declaration in 2009. All in exchange for security assurances that are now worthless.

Nuclear proliferation is now the only choice for smaller nations to preserve sovereignty.
Good luck disarming Iran or anyone else who has nuclear weapons, for that matter.

What an opportunity wasted. Turning Russian assets into defense production by EU/UK for Ukraine would create jobs in EU/UK and help 🇺🇦.

Essential today to get some historical perspective “ Black Hundred: Rise of the Extreme Right in Russia” by Walter Laqueur May be out of print but getting a used one in good condition should not be a problem. Also “Lost Kingdom” by Serhii Plokhy is excellent.
