The president-elect described the death toll as “staggering” and added: “It’s a war that I’m going to try really to stop as quickly as I can.”
Western officials including Nato secretary-general Mark Rutte have sought to stress the importance of Trump ensuring “peace through strength” in Ukraine, and avoiding a defeat for Kyiv that would embolden Putin and his allies in China, Iran and North Korea.
It will never cease to amaze me that modern liberals are to the right of actual fascists on the issue of war.
Not on war generally, just this one specific war that they have been worked into a blood frenzy over.
Am I the only one who parsed ‘summit’ as slang for ‘something’

gods forbid two great powers in conflict actually talk to each other to attempt to finally end a decade long crisis
Westerners once again demonstrating that they’re incapable of accepting that their countries problems are home grown and not the result of evil conspiracies by perfidious foreigners.
They can’t help themselves but to scapegoat and project every single problem they created onto what they view as “inferior” races and countries.
Usonians think they’re the arbiter of goodness, the moral standard of the world, after their country just killed a million innocent people in Iraq, and are the main funders of the current genocide in Palestine.
The only way to explain it is, that they view themselves as superior and civilized, and every other country is wrong, untrustworthy, and scheming. Western supremacy has completely taken over their brains, and it becomes the lens that they view the world through, and their gut reaction to any event.
Liberal democracy’s portrayal as the sole legitimate form of governance amounts to nothing more than modern-day marketing for colonialism, serving as a pretext for Western invasions and global atrocities masquerading as benevolent civilizing missions. Nothing really changed since the early days of colonialism, it’s just different window dressing for the masses.
It can definitely be both.
No, it can’t. And it’s not.
How so?
There isnt any reason why it can’t be both, and in my opinion it very much is.
No. Trump is not employed by the Russian government and the idea he is is a conspiracy theory on par with pizzagate or birtherism.
Got any proof of that?
Because if not, then you’re pushing your own conspiracy theory on par with pizzagate or birtherism.
Trump is a known Russian asset.
Want more? There’s more.
America shit the bed, sure, absolutely. No disagreement here. This does not mean that we didn’t shit the bed with assistance.
Got any proof of that?

not a “Russian Asset” although I personally think he is the latter. I would argue he is at the very least compromised by Russia.
Ok, then I’m going to write you off as the mad conspiracy theorist that you are, no different to a QAnoner or a birtherist.
And no, there are not “foreign issues that as imposing there will on the US.”, that’s wild projection.
