The United States imposed sanctions on Wednesday on Russia-based people and entities working to help procure weapons and commodities — including stolen Ukrainian grain — for Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis, the Treasury Department said.

Let me guess, the CIA is now going to blow up Druzhba-2 to shoot the other EU foot off. After three years, the idiots in the West, yes DJT, still haven’t looked at the total CF sanctions against Russia have been, a bust for Russia and busted up the EU.

Get Macroleon to fart in the Russians’ general direction. That’ll be just as effective.

We/Trump is trying to enlist Egypt in getting the Middle East agendas working - Gaza, and extending the Abraham accords, and Egypt has been losing millions due to ocean shipping avoding routes via the Suez canal.

Thus, J.D. Vance was wrong. It was not about “bailing out western Europe” that needs that commerce via the Red Sea more than we do. It was about Egypt, and Egypt, the largest Sunni population in the Middle East, is and will be a regional counterweight to both the Mullahs of Iran (Shia Muslims) and fundamentalist Erdogan in Turkey. J.D. vance did not know of what he spoke.
