Trump has realized that the EU and Zelensky have been sabotaging his latest efforts at peace agreement.

Sanctions are already on Russia and so far they have not been successful.

Yes that true hence why I think president Trump will continue to remove nations from the Russian sphere of influence at the same time as decreasing the price of oil. I don’t think the Iranian oil fields were taken out either probably because of that strategy. Venezuela should be nervous

On the other hand, falsely thinking they are the same as us leads to misunderstanding and wrong conclusions. We have to see Indians for who they are. The average IQ is lower (although there are undoubtedly super smart individuals), and their pagan culture that is resistant to Westernization causes them to behave in a certain way. Listen to their own "Jayant Bhandari" on YouTube who explains this well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Dqlj61hl7c

Cheers and Happy Labor Day.

True. Well whoever is behind this (gay) display of solidarity, it’s not going to work. Let the tariffs commence.

lol I have been told since 2022 that Russia is self sufficient

Importing eggs and steel what’s next potatoes

A bit tongue in cheek but not entirely.

We will see how hooking wagon to Russia works out for India

What few people understand is that we do very little business with India, but they do a tremendous amount of business with us.

India has adopted the Soviet economic model since 1947 independence. It significantly imports from China and Russia while primarily exporting to the U.S. and EU while keeping most of its domestic market restricted. There is a significant trade imbalance. President Trump is correct to insist on tariffs to normalize the out of balance relationship.
***************
You know nothing about the old Soviet model, where the government owned EVERYTHING. India’s Congress party moved India closer to the Soviets after India was freed of colonialism, but, even under them, India came nowhere close to Soviet communism. India under Modi has become much freer economically than, say, Germany. India is not Stalinist just because it is protectionist, any more than the USA was when tariffs were high. We should be befriending India, not pushing it to the Chinese due to a war that is none of our business.

Russian military exports dropped from 14 billion in 2021 to 1 billion in 2024, add to that Russia is an importer of weapons and ammunition (again self sufficient?)

Not the best look for a country that has captured 20%(mostly in the first few months) of Ukraine in almost the time(2 months to go), that the Soviet Union took to take Berlin🤔

You'll be laughink out of the other side of your face when all the military-age males in The Ukraine are eliminated, as Shoigu told us back in 2022.

Russia seems to being doing a pretty good job of eliminating their young generations

2 months till Russia has equaled the time it took the Soviet Union to take Berlin🤔

You neocon guys with your “time” and “land” chorus.

Shoigu told you exactly what the Russians are gonna do.

I guess it’s your job to keep the Ukies fighting to The Last Ukrainian.
