He seems to miss the point that the american oligarchs just want to divide up Ukraine between them and the ruzzian oligarchs. He is quite crazy thinking that america will "strengthen its slightly shaken reputation".

Translation: Biden fucked us up.

The idea that Trump might be capable of grand strategy ought to be hysterical to anyone who’s ever heard him speaking.

Trump's motivation is he wants the Nobel Peace Prize. He'll never do anything against Putin, so he'll agree to anything to get his Peace Prize.

Consider the possibility that Strelkov writes such content to provide Mr P and T with means to maintain deniability on being in the same team.

Strange that one whose morals and motives are so wildly off-course, generally has clear-headed and well-considered analysis.

I think Igor overestimates the level of planning and strategic thinking of the Trump admin. But I like his Hopium

This would imply Trump is smarter than Putin 🤷🏻‍♂️

ideetje9.bsky.social•4 days ago

Hahahahaaaaaa.
But! As soon as 💩tin believes this there will be many open window opportunities.

makonori61.bsky.social•4 days ago

... and we know how true that is! But let's remember that Trump is only a puppet, the real decision makers are Project 2025

Wild that the imprisoned Strelkov has more faith in the agency of Congress than I do!

Paid opposition 🙄

I am sorry to say I think he gives Trump to much credit. I don't really see Trump having a cunning plan like this, it is too complicated for him.

briancst.bsky.social•4 days ago

As cunning as the fox who is professor of cunning at Oxford University?

ringreven.bsky.social•4 days ago

I had to google "professor of cunning", it seems they are about the say degree of cunning, wouldn't you say?

briancst.bsky.social•4 days ago

I'd say Baldrick's plans are smarter than Trump's.

derjensen.bsky.social•4 days ago

He is an assh**** But in my point of view 100% right with his predictions. Putin only knows maximum demands, Trump has neither a plan nor anything to offer. Russia will not last another year, despite small territorial gains. And so the talks will continue, but without a result.

How is this man not dead yet?!

I don't share his optimism about Trump and his fascist bunch. But I love how fascists don't trust each other.

marytorgersen.bsky.social•4 days ago

In this case, I think it’s the other way around. Putin is stringing Trump around.

ramelors.bsky.social•4 days ago

Reads like Pútin's propaganda, since the Cheeto Mussolini seems to engage, daily, in loving, air-kissing, submissive boot-licking of his beloved ruzzian ruffian.

ducebohenski.bsky.social•4 days ago

Unfortunately wrong. Most of the time things are what they seem and trump is on russia's side (Occam's razor or the "if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's a goddamn duck" principle). Doom and gloom talk, understandable for a "hero" of nazi russia who's been rewarded with jail.

leaderfoods.bsky.social•4 days ago

Couldn't agree more. Trump's actions speak volumes. Attacking Europe financially in order to stop Europe from funding Ukraine - is very telling.
If Trump was such an amazing deal maker he would put a similar pressure on russia as on Ukraine, but he doesn't. Ukraine, EU & CA are the targets. Not RU.

Hopefully, but I see major concessions being made, and it looks to me that he tried to rescue putin, but entered insurmountable resistance, even from within his closest circle.

chrononaut.bsky.social•4 days ago

I don't get why they let him keep criticizing Putin from jail.

How does that help Putin?

Or Strelkov is no longer that popular and it doesn't really matter?

cymonset.bsky.social•4 days ago

I would guess that, just like it’s a challenge to keep everything from drugs and cellphones out of prisons, keeping communication of prisoners from getting out is not easy to control. Even for a country that can make up rules on the fly without criticism.

ministryofmonkey.bsky.social•4 days ago

He does seem to have access to rather updated geopolitcal news in this case

hrobak67.bsky.social•4 days ago

Interesting read from war criminal Strelkov. In a way, it adds up quite logically if we assume Trump has no loyalty to putin. Trump acting according to what is most beneficial to himself - nothing else matters!

If the negotiations fail, the U.S. will further strengthen Ukraine for another offensive. Moscow is likely aware of this and will try to delay talks for as long as possible, making escalation all but inevitable, according to him.
