Esclusivo: Putin, non sorpreso da Trump, combatterà e potrebbe prendere più Ucraina

Of course he is unfazed. No one believes in Krasnov’s threats against his idol.

Exclusive: If EU were continuing hesitating to send more weapons, we’d lost more lives.

Could take more of Ukraine. 3 years on and they have taken embarrassingly little. I don’t think the next 50 days is gonna change much.

I have a feeling that Putin wants escalation to justify terrible plans.

Indeed, Putin has, since the invasion, justified his actions by arguing that NATO is threatening them. Invading Ukraine has obviously been a giant miscalculation on his part, and now he must adjust.

He can’t “win” without increased destruction and harm to civilian populations and/or use of extraordinary weapons (WMDs). Of course, he is already carrying out indiscriminate and unlawful strikes and tactics. The world is essentially against his actions, and any increase in brutality and unlawful acts at this point will only further hurt Russia’s global image.

Suppose Ukraine can start striking into Moscow’s heart, especially with larger, more powerful, and destructive munitions. In that case, it will create more ‘justification’ for him to respond with increased brutality.

During his sit-down with Zelensky, Trump has already paved such a path. He warned Zelensky he couldn’t win, and he was outmatched. Suggesting he concede land and beg for peace.

Now, NATO has been forced to increase its efforts, and now Trump flips from, we should get out of NATO altogether, to we should now give more powerful long-range weapons to Ukraine AND it is (conveniently) leaked that he has been talking about striking Moscow and/or St. Pete.

We must remember the context. Trump, since his first term, has acted subservient and repeatedly cowed to Putin and his demands. He has also, despite all the recent changes of posture towards Russia, kept Russia LOUDLY and UNIQUELY protected from all the economic attacks he has directed at almost every other country in the world.

If he really was serious about helping Ukraine but did not want to increase the conflict, he would use the economic levers he had at his disposal.

I am starting to really fear that Russia is considering the use of a tactical nuke, and they want/need ‘justification’ to do so. In my opinion, this would be ‘good’ for the newly formed alliance of dictators because conflict increases the ability to enact greater domestic control. And, people are more likely to look towards ‘strongman’ leadership when threats of national security, etc., are imminent.

Trump’s response would be predictable: “Look, I warned Ukraine. They didn’t want to listen to me. They said they could win if only we had more weapons, etc. I gave them what they asked for, even after I warned them. What do you expect would happen? I think it was very stupid that Zelensky didn’t take the deal I negotiated for him – it was an excellent deal, by the way.”

You mean he isn’t afraid of tarrifs?? 🤯

When you work to put a fool in, you don’t flinch at the fool

Yeah, that’s what his 50 day “ultimatum” was – Trump simply told that Putin has 50+x days to win the war

We are just in an infinite loop here and unfortunately Ukraine has to pay the price

GIVE UKRAINE LONG RANGE MISILES; RuZZia has LONG ago crossed the red line!

Putin has an extremely small penis. There is no other explanation.

Mainstream media sucks and click bate has to reduce our debt
