Maybe that's Trump's secret clever plan all along...Many of you will know that Trump's tariffs are decimating world stockmarkets.
One byproduct of this is that less demand for oil means that oil prices are DOWN (WTI 7.53%, Brent 7.03%), so this will eat into Putin's future war chest.
...nahhh
Admit it, you're just obsessed with Japanese cars
This one could indeed be fun and games as @SouthSaxon suggests.
Yes, that would be interesting! As far as I’m aware there’s still a dispute following previous (fairly recent) wars between Armenia and Azerbaijan over Navorno Karabak - I think Russia normally sides with the latter. Both Armenia and Turkey have a border with Iran. Lots to consider for EU membership!
My wife performs that function for meI find it amusing that Putin has his own washing machine, and gets his personal guard to operate it in case of booby traps
The split was around 50/50 between US and the rest of the world. Trumps behaviour has meant that Europe is increasing weapon supply significantly plus Turkey throwing in their suppprt, so the longer it goes on the worse for Russia and the less influence for Trump.I imagine the tariffs malarkey may be helping to buy time for Ukraine to examine the 'really beautiful, so generous' minerals deal in detail, back and forth with suggested amendments, checking how the weapons draw down from the US stores in Poland are going, before they regrettably reject it. I have the feeling they won't be getting any more weaponry if they do.
How long can they string it out for??
Are you also at high risk of assassination by sabotage?
She's your personal guard ...and tastes your food first
news.err.ee
I wouldn't necessarily say high risk, but you can't discount the possibility of some element of risk, hence the wife.
Here's Jake Broe:
It's a bit long, and it's matchday, so go straight to 24:40.
'Donald Trump could trigger a financial collapse of Russia without even intending to'
Afraid he probably would.
Absolutely - we should expect Russia to renege on any “deal”. Putin has no interest in peace until he has Ukraine under total control - that’s his ultimate aim, so ignore anything he says and does that suggests otherwise.
You have just encapsulated the deep and profound long term damage that Putin fails to realise he has has done to his nation. Russia cannot be trusted. Not for generations.
