I hope Russia is so badly damaged that it gets split into many smaller states, and never has the power to attack anyone, not only in Europe, but also in Asia. Russia must fall to give an example of what can happen when a bully tries to take territory by force.

The US cannot attack before Friday evening, because they need stock markets to be closed. The Trump admin does all the dirty work when markets are closed, so it can control the narrative before they open on Monday, without market disturbance. Anyone hoping the US will strike Iran before Friday...

Russia’s economy will break before Ukraine’s. There’s no “if” about it, the only question is “when”. Ukraine’s economy can go on forever, because it is backed by European money, and for Europe the price of keeping Ukraine afloat is nothing. Russia on the other hand has gone bankrupt once, and...

It’s not about value, it’s about Trump’s megalomaniac ambitions to remain in history as one of the US presidents who enlarged the territory of the emipre. He is an 80 years old senile man, who thinks of himself as the greatest president ever, and adding a huge territory during his term would...

And the battle for Pokrovsk is already one and a half years long, and still ongoing…

If you read what MAGA supporters write on X about Greenland and Canada, you would think the US is just an English-speaking Russia.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Rubio told lawmakers that Trump wants to buy Greenland, not to invade it. He said the White House is using rhetoric to pressure Denmark into negotiations. Considering the mood in Europe, I don’t see how Denmark could negotiate to sell Greenland, especially...

I wish it would be like that, but I doubt that Europe would be willing to make any sacrifices for Greenland. They will try to find various excuses why they should continue to be allies and friends with the US. European leaders are too weak and cowardly to confront Trump and the US. They are not...

The backlash for taking Greenland would be huge, and this is why Trump has hesitated until now. But he is going for the easier targets first, like Venezuela and Iran, where the regimes are despicable and nobody will shed tears for them. But if he succeeds in Venezuela, Iran, Cuba or even...

And do you think Trump cares about the backlash? The way things are going, after stabilizing the situation in Venezuela, Trump is going to do regime change in Cuba and Colombia, and the next target might be the annexation of Greenland.

Haha, this explains his “opinions”…

What Pashinyan managed to do is amazing, from a political perspective. To be able to normalize relations so fast with a country after it defeated you in conflict, instead of choosing a stupid revanchist mindset, is something very few would have thought possible. Armenia has two options going...

Ukraine needs to sue Russia at the Hague for crimes against humanity, and demand reparations for the crimes commited in the first year of war, equal to the frozen Russian assets. If the court orders Russia to pay, Belgium should be complied to abide by the court order. And Russia would still be...

Europe’s military problem is not solved by only pouring more money into conventional forces. European countries need to make nuclear weapons, and ICBMs. Unless they do that, the only European countries that matter will remain France, and to a lesser degree the UK (which is dependent on US tech...

Through ”reparations” paid by Russia, from the frozen money. This translates into the money never being given back to Russia, and being considered reparations for war. It’s like an accounting trick. Ukraine borrows money guaranteeing it with the frozen Russian assets, which in turn are used to...
