What many people do mot realize is that security guarantees are not enforceable. You can not sue another country that guaranteed your security if they failed to do so in a war.

This is why making another country want to protect you out of its own interests is more important than a guarantee.

Trump is dismantling the Russian narrative and caught Putin in a bind. Russia is in a dilemma because of Trump.

Let's go. Keep faith, friends.
🇺🇸🇺🇦 Trump will try to achieve a resolution of the war in Ukraine in a manner that is most beneficial for Ukraine, said Pete Hegseth.

Remember all the cope that Russia was going to be able to stay in Syria and thus they didn't fail in Syria?

Now, they can't even get their forces out of Syria. I wonder what they will have to give up to Syria to just evacuate.

Russia puts out propaganda shooting down Santa for delivering presents days after shooting down yet another civilian airliner.

What a repulsive and evil society.
Russians have released a propaganda video in which Russian air defense shoots down Santa Claus over Moscow.

You couldn't have picked a worse time to release this video on purpose.

Russia signing a strategic pact with Iran, like it did with North Korea, before Trump's inauguration is a blunder.

Even those reticent about support for Ukraine will support Ukraine to fight Iran. Israel will also be forced to avandone Russia.

How many were fearmonhering about Trump in the lead up to the election?

5% spending on the military is not out of the norm for the past 75 years, btw.
⚡️🇺🇸🇺🇦 Trump's team told European officials that the new US administration plans to continue aid to Ukraine, - Financial Times

❗️But Trump told NATO members that he expects them to increase defense spending to 5% of GDP.

Losing the air base and naval base will be the downfall of Russia in Africa.
Russia in Syria: Russia continues to negotiate with the interim Syrian government to maintain its military presence at the Hmeimim Air Base and Port of Tartus in Syria, but Chechen Republic Head Ramzan Kadyrov's recent appeals to HTS suggest that talks may have hit a snag.

I wish the Russians a very nice economic collapse.

To all those wanting to ally with Russia, what is the plan to make Russia implement a regime of de-communization and re-education?

It took the Maidan to really get Ukraine on this path.

Russia will lose.

Russians forces getting left behind in Syria is fairly hilarious. Talk about overextension.

The idea that Burisma is an example of Ukrainian corruption or that it didnt happen is nonsense. It is an example of American-Russian corruption where foreign policy is sold to dictators.
JP Lindsey posted this on X, but it bears repeating where it hasnt been posted.

LVIV, UKRAINE—One of the biggest lies repeated by both the left and the right is that Burisma, the oil and gas firm linked to Hunter Biden, is a Ukrainian company.

"A key transition figure and attorney for President-elect Donald J. Trump is being accused by Mr. Trump’s own team of corruption."

An Epstein was found in a corruption scandal, and people think this is a bad thing.

The Trump Envoy to Ukraine getting rid of corrupt Russians will be beneficial.
NEW NYT:

Trump's legal team found evidence that a top adviser — Boris Epshteyn — asked for retainer fees from potential appointees in order to promote them for admin jobs.

In effect, Epshteyn was seeking money from people looking for appointments.

President-elect Donald J. Trump ordered the investigation by his legal team into Boris Epshteyn, a powerful figure in the transition. Mr. Epshteyn denies the allegations.

Graham's words here harken to a big reason why Putin invaded in the first place - to capture the mines and oul fields in the Donbas and off the coast of Crimea.

Graham is literally giving Americans a reason to be invested in the conflict. Pro-UA should support Graham.

Hopefully, Europe devides to prepare for this eventuality.
⚔️ Christian Freuding: "We see the time frame very clearly and understand that by 2029, the Russians are striving to achieve such military capabilities that would enable them to carry out any new aggression, including against a NATO state. We are fully aware of this, and our population too."

One aspect of the Western caricature of Putin I dislike is that he is a bully. He is not a bully but a murderer.
November 25, 2024 at 7:15 PM
Putin's economy is suffering right now. Trump removing Biden's sanction exceptions will really hurt Russia.

This is a good path to forcing Russia to negotiate on Trump's terms.

We are already seeing Trump's team question if Russia can be trusted to uphold their word.
