Nearly 90 Percent of the World Isn't Following Us on Ukraine
Newsweek ^ | 9/15/22 | MICHAEL GFOELLER AND DAVID H. RUNDELL

Posted on 10/27/2022 12:05:39 PM PDT by JonPreston

Our familiar system of global political and economic alliances is shifting, and nothing has made this change clearer than the varied reactions to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. While the United States and its closest allies in Europe and Asia have imposed tough economic sanctions on Moscow, 87 percent of the world's population has declined to follow us. Economic sanctions have united our adversaries in shared resistance. Less predictably, the outbreak of Cold War II, has also led countries that were once partners or non-aligned to become increasingly multi-aligned.

Nowhere is the shift more apparent than in energy markets where, unlike with currencies, governments cannot simply print what they need. Here the web of sanctions becomes a sieve.

The war in Ukraine is between the globalists (Ukraine supporters) and the Russia-China axis.

Not really. The war is between Russia, who invaded Ukraine, and Ukraine. Ukraine has received support from many nations because nobody but Russians thinks allowing nations to invade their neighbors in Europe is a good idea.

China has made it very clear that they are unhappy with Russia's actions.

Your Homepage reads like a diary from a JHS girl. It’s no wonder you’re a Neocon fag.

What evidence do you have to support that idea?

Soaring energy prices, especially Germany, Britain and France.

Ya think that the sanction on Russian oil and gas might be a reason?

They are neutral. For India or Chile it is not their war, so they don’t want to get involved.

However note how many countries are on Putin’s side? North Korea, Syria, Iran...

Not even China is getting off the fence to Putin’s side.

In central Europe we don’t give a damn about paedo Brandon. He was preparing to dump Ukraine like he dumped Afghanistan.

We care for stopping Putin’s continuous aggression against his neighbours.

No USA troops in Ukraine. The USA is doing more than enough already. The rebuilding of Ukraine is European countries problem.

Hi guy.

“I’ll get right on that as soon as Hunter’s laptop is released.”

From what I have seen already on Hunter’s laptop, I really don’t want to see anymore.

Can you post a link to support your claim? Why would any nation need to launder their currency?

Nations don't but Democrats do. So, here ya go.

Not conclusive but it does support what I've suspected for quite some time.

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Tens of Billions of US Dollars Were Transferred to Ukraine and then Using FTX Crypto Currency the Funds Were Laundered Back to Democrats in US

You are just linking back to the Gateway Pundit story that has as its source a picture of text in a tweet from some unknown person.

When you run back the source of that person's tweet it is a repost of another tweet that says the source is Hal Turner.

Hal Turner is far from a reliable source unless you think that the Holocaust didn't actually happen, and believe a whole array of wacky ideas Mr. Turner has put out over the years.

An anonymous caller on the Art Bell show whose uncle told him he saw some soldiers in a gas station in Nevada with alien POWs might be a more reliable source.

What is the point of commenting on somebody's fantasy?
