Some of us have been reporting on Trump’s pro-Kremlin tendencies for years now. His Moscow connections go back all the way to the late 80s, and the 2016 US presidential elections raised a lot of red flags about the close connections of his associates to Russian operatives.

The recent Rubio-Lavrov meeting in Saudi Arabia was an eye-opening event for many who were still optimistic about Trump and Ukraine – the outcome was that Putin got absolutely everything he’s ever wanted from the war, and at the same time it seems that the US got nothing.

From the beginning of the war back in 2014, Moscow’s goals in Ukraine have been the same: install a pro-Kremlin puppet regime in Kyiv after the ousting of Yanukovych, capture vast areas of land from Ukraine, alienate Ukraine’s allies and undermine NATO.

In Feb 2022, their initial plan to capture Kyiv in 3 days & install a puppet regime failed, and the war quickly expanded. Eventually, Putin abandoned the idea of forming puppet states of LPR & DPR, and announced the annexation of Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk & Zaporizhzhia.

Ukrainians fought fiercely, and even managed to take away a big part of Russia’s Black Sea navy. Russia resorted to meatwave attacks, bombing civilians & critical infrastructure, and controlling the online information space through massive disinformation campaigns.

Then, after almost 3 years of brutal war, everything changed, as they had hoped: Trump won, and this time it was quickly obvious whose side he was standing on. We had already seen Trump capitulating to Putin in Helsinki in 2018, but this was something completely different.

Now it’s time to EU to step up and say, fuck you Putin, fuck you Trump, we as a European people will fight side by side with Ukrainian people and kick Russian back.

Unfortunately an excellent thread that I fear will not be far off in terms of accuracy.

@skyview.social unroll please

cymonset.bsky.social•81 days ago

Nations with leaders who move as far into Russkiy Mir as Trump has often don’t come back from the path such leaders take them on. 😔

The art of the deal my ass. Trump just wants money. He doesn’t care about Ukraine.
He’s spreading misinformation to give as much to Russia as possible.

soolka.bsky.social•81 days ago

That and he is bought and paid for by the russian mafia and has been for decades. His shitty condos are a vehicle for money laundering for them. trump tower is a russian mafia dormitory.

Interesting will be the development of Russian and Chinese relationships with stronger American partnership. Also if Iran can and will still support Russia. Looks like Russia will be quite isolated whatever scenario develops.

yanadear.bsky.social•80 days ago

you also forgot that pytin wants NATO to fuck off to 1996 ,I believe borders, ( that includes Finland and Sweden) and for the russian dialect to be the official language in Ukraine

I wonder if there is a secret deal between Trump and Putin, something like the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. It could be along the lines of, Russia don’t interfere in US shenanigans in North and South America. In return US allows Russia to do what they please in Ukraine and Europe.

yanadear.bsky.social•80 days ago

yes of course there are many
but none will work
these types always turn against one another

La traduction est la partie chiante de bluesky. Du coup, je ne peux pas lire vos Vatnik Soup. Ils vont finir par me faire regretter Twitter !

There’s no other way than Europe to ramp up its military industry urgently, not in 5 years, not next year, today! I don’t think people are realising yet that the independence of European countries is at risk after Trump was elected.

realld007.bsky.social•81 days ago

I hope it’s not too late, we have to switch to war economy, USA will probably stop sending *and* selling systems like Patriot and that means real trouble...

Europe has to stop talking and start acting

Don't forget that Zelenskyy came up and save part of the Munchen security converence by undermining and outshing Vice president Vance and Kellog and the others completly.
While having European countries unifying arround Ukraine.
Mobster Trump can't stand that! He wants Europe in a complete panic!

lizafella.bsky.social•81 days ago

And the aggressors will get the opposite, just like boss putin's plan to weaken NATO
