Rubio effectively saying to Putin: ‘Drag your heels a bit longer and you can have Ukraine’

The financial crash, austerity, Brexit, the pandemic, the war in Ukraine, and now Trump trashing the global economy. What next?

Trump is a deeply flawed man and has surrounded himself with other deeply flawed people.

Witkoff says he “likes” Putin. How can anyone like a mass murderer unless they are deeply flawed?

www.bbc.com/news/article... Proof - as if any were required - that Trump is going to throw Ukraine to the wolves.

Andrius Kubilius, the European Commissioner for Defence Industry and Space: “There are 450 million Europeans. We should not be crying out for 340 million Americans to defend us against 140 million Russians, who are not even able to defeat 38 million Ukrainians.

Keir Starmer is going to have to get off the tightrope very soon before Trump and Putin divvy up ‘certain assets’ in Ukraine.

Putin keeping the US envoy waiting for hours is an undermining tactic he’s used in the past.Condoleezza Rice called his bluff and headed for the airport.
