Exactly. An alliance with Russia, and countries like Hungary/Slovakia etc. makes a lot more sense than trying to drive 'regime change' or coups there. These are countries that have resisted the WEF/Soros globalists that want open borders (or 'Open Societies'). In many ways Europe is substantially conquered by the 'enemy' within and without (including USAID). And yes, this was has first and foremost benefited China, and then secondarily the wealthy oligarchs of Europe/Ukraine/Russia (and the US, not just the Biden familia) alike who are on the dole and empowered via the censorship and blood money etc.

Thankfully I think the evidence is now solidly that Trump now gets it, and won't tolerate this idiocy from Zelensky.

That's pretty funny, SMR.

He's right, you know, x2:


Sign me up for this proffer from Trump: classic win-win for America.

In an article on Wednesday, The Economist said, "many Ukrainians are clearly frustrated with their war leader."According to data cited in the report, Zelensky "would lose a future election by 30% to 65% to Valery Zaluzhny," if the former commander runs for office. Zaluzhny currently serves as Ukraine's ambassador to the UK.
The Economist further claimed that, in sharp contrast to the 90% popularity he supposedly enjoyed during the early days of the conflict in 2022, Zelensky's trust ratings hit a low of 52% last month.
On Thursday, Ukraine's Strana.UA media outlet which is considered to be in opposition to the country's government and has come under pressure from the authorities cited a recent survey conducted by Socis suggesting that only 15.9% would vote for Zelensky, with Zaluzhny enjoying the support of 27.2% of respondents.

Bild: US could withdraw forces from Eastern and Central Europe.
Quote:
Western security services and politicians are worried about a potential exit of US troops from NATO member states in Central and Eastern Europe, Bild has reported on Wednesday, citing unnamed sources. The tabloid suggests that Russia is trying to get the US to radically downgrade its military presence on the continent.

Bild claimed that European members of NATO "feared" that the high-level US-Russia talks in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday, could lead to such an outcome. The German media outlet quoted an anonymous Western European security official as saying, "according to our information, we're talking about [Vladimir] Putin's 2021 demands, that is, the withdrawal of US troops from all NATO states that joined the alliance after 1990."

In December 2021, Russia presented the US and NATO with a list of proposals aimed at reshaping the security architecture in Europe, and to rule out Ukraine's accession. The West rejected the Kremlin's overture as an ultimatum at the time.

Bild also quoted former Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis who posted on X on Tuesday that "it seems much more than likely" that the Kremlin would renew its demands that "NATO must go back to its 1997 borders, retreating from everything except East Germany." He noted that while Trump technically cannot unilaterally implement a "reversal of NATO enlargement," he could still "withdraw US troops from the Eastern Flank, which would have almost the same effect."
'It's happening.'

It's gotten to the point that even Arestovich is now upping his favor-currying antics by claiming on multiple interviews that should he become president of Ukraine he will order the immediate arrest and life imprisonment of Zelensky, Turchinov, and others of their ilk responsible for this mess:

As an interesting note, in a new clip referencing the peace deal, Trump states that he thinks Putin "wants to make a deal" but that "he doesn't have to make a deal because he can have [all of Ukraine] if he wants to."
Quote:
It is fascinating for revealing Trump as more perceptive than perhaps we've at times given him credit for. Most assumed the US administration believes the lie, based on faulty intelligence, that Russia is weak and in desperate need of a ceasefire. But in fact Trump appears fully aware that Putin doesn't need this deal, and can carry on swallowing Ukraine whole. This is critical, as it reveals a lot of implications: for instance, the fact that Trump likely knows the incentive needs to be extremely strong for Russia to choose a deal over taking all of Ukraine as part of the war spoils. As such, we can assume the US must logically be preparing major concessions toward Putin's demands in order to realistically make a 'peace deal' work.

And today we had some confirmation of this, as it was reported by Financial Times[url=https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/moscow-demanded-us-nato-withdraw-forces-eastern-europe-riyadh-talks][/url]that the withdrawal of American troops from eastern Europe was an explicit demand from the Russian side in Riyadh, for any normalization to take place.
