"Ah, the good old days when we funded billions in Lend-Lease so Stalin could repel the Nazis, and then the NYTimes suppressed news of the Ukrainian Holodomor and called the USSR our “great ally” so Patton would be fired, and FDR gave up half of Europe at Yalta, instead of stopping them.

Worth repeating, over and over...

The Ukraine-Russia “expert” on C-SPAN while they are taking calls during the current summit while Trump is not on camera said that we have given or pledged $175 billion to Ukraine. As Trump has often said Biden made this a gift. The European Union, which gave/pledged much less, made theirs a loan.

$175 billion is 175,000 times $1 million. IIRC Trump only wanted 6 or 8 billion to build the entire wall during Trump 1.0. He was denied it by Congress.

... I’ve sensed a kind of optimism in the ‘air’ today...

More hope than optimism, I suppose. But far better than the hopelessness we've been feeling for a while now.

Even a thug wants good PR.

I've never seen Zelensky seek out good PR.

He's pretty much defiant prick wherever he goes.

The bloodthirsty thugs are the Ukrainian nationalists and neo-Nazis that we enabled during the illegal coup in 2014.

You know the ones that locked 39 people in trade union building and burned them to death in Odessa.

Zielinski is stupid and should accept land losses.
Putin is still a thug and wants to recreate the Soviet empire.
It’s a difficult situation for the US, but I think Trump is taking the moral high ground.
If Putin doesn’t do a ceasefire, in addition to secondary sanctions, Russia could be totally kicked out of worldwide financial transactions.
You Russians might not like it, but a high percentage of global financial transactions directly or indirectly involve dollar denominated transactions.
Enjoy your hovel in Siberia.

One would have to be an imbecile to believe that.

Russia doesn't have the capability of taking over multiple nations against their wills.

The Russians were able to takeover the part of Ukraine they did ONLY because the people there no longer wanted to be part of Ukraine after the illegal 2014 that we helped foment.

The annexed part of Ukraine was and is ethnically or culturally Russian.

So, you want Trump to commit political suicide and double down on Biden's failed strategy?

There isn't any sanctions or tariffs we can implement that will work and/or that wouldn't destroy our economy.

Comrade Kazan.

Biden never tried secondary sanctions by EU and US. He never even got EU to stop Russian oil purchases.
Biden never stopped Russia from using SWIFT system or exclude Russia from worldwide financial transactions.

Kazan is the largest city and capital of Tatarstan, Russia. The city lies at the confluence of the Volga and the Kazanka Rivers.

Oh yeah. Putin regretted the loss of territory, population, natural resources and industrial capacity after the fall of your USSR motherland.

Putin is not enamored with Mandami or Stalinist communism but he didn’t like the fact that Russia shrunk by every metric and in every way. Kind of like Peter the Great to Putin the midget.

Here’s what your little man said:

“Above all, we should acknowledge that the collapse of the Soviet Union was a major geopolitical disaster of the century. As for the Russian nation, it became a genuine drama. Tens of millions of our co-citizens and compatriots found themselves outside Russian territory. Moreover, the epidemic of disintegration infected Russia itself.”

Putin laid the wreath at the monument in Magadan, Russia:
Putin Honors US-Soviet WWII Airlift Before Alaska Summit With Trump

The guards are a dead giveaway that this ocurred in Russia.

How many IDs do you have here, Speedy?

Your posts are just as retarded regardless of the ID that you use.

Biden never tried secondary sanctions by EU and US

Trump, you numbskull, isn't implementing sanctions that destroying our economy. That would political suicide.

Thus, there won't be sanctions on items like generic drugs from India.

And, if there aren't sanctions on items like that, any secondary sanctions are useless.

If US excludes Russia from SWIFT banking systems it will be difficult for Russia to sell oil etc, Ruble would fall, Russian banks would be isolated. Most transactions are directly or indirectly involve USD.

Go back to Kazan, Russia and set up your bank there. Your TDS and Russian ID will serve you well there.

Your love for Putin and Russian tyranny is disgusting. BTW, that doesn’t mean I think that Z-man is a genius or a hero

It’s amazing how you never Trumpers continue to evolve.
