Sanctions against Russia

[nomadpete]

Maybe not actually Eternal. But the next four years might feel like a looong time.

So, revenue raised by tariffs imposed on exporters but actually paid internally by US importers is now redefined as `external revenue`? Sounds like a good plan by Trump to convince his supporters of his financial genius while they wonder why they're paying more for what they buy.

But they are definately NOT eternal.

 What is? Perhaps wilful IGNORANCE and human failings.   Nev

What a CF, throwing additional troops into a theatre who are an alien culture, and who have a totally different language? It effectively means they can only operate as a team by themselves, it would be impossible to integrate them into Russian forces and the Russian military.

 

Imagine them trying to understand instructions written in Russian, on Russian equipment? I wonder how many total balls-ups have been caused by the Koreans doing something completely stupid, and at odds with Russian systems and techniques and tactics?

To be fair, the Russkis have had plenty of balls-ups all by themselves, and given the quality of their conscripts, the ability to read Russian would not be universal in their own ranks.

Cannon fodder for the Price of feeding them (for a short while).   The ONLY loss of life Putin would care about is his own. Nev

We've stopped talking about Pootin.... Another win for hin thanks to Trump...

 

But, here is a sneak preview of his plans: https://www.yahoo.com/news/russia-belarus-strategy-document-230035184.html

 

Wonder if Lukashenko is still thinking about being a good buddy.

Putin will be eyeing off the Baltic states too in his quest to re-establish the Soviet empire. From his point of view he’s just had one of the best months of his career knowing that the US won’t lift a finger to stop him. 

[facthunter]

He and Trump are both Bully Boys. IF the World had neither of them we would be better off. Government should serve the People. NOT the Other way around which can only be Maintained by FORCE & Oppression..   Nev
