Some of Europe's leaders are keen to appease him & not only the Eurofascist allies, Farage & co; even Scholz in Germany's been oiling up to him.
I'm in Scotland, everyone can see Putin rubbing his hands in glee. I hope he & his fascist internationale will be crushed, in Ukraine, Syria & globally.
News I’m watching has been saying different things. To be clear Farage is NOT the Prime Minister of the UK. He doesn’t represent everyone’s opinions. He is an opposition politician who can be traced back to Russia who is well known to be a right-wing extremist by most Brits inc Putin payouts.
Farage & his team succeeded in getting enough racists, dim bulbs & fellow useful idiots (including Lexiteers like Mick Lynch & Tariq Ali) to back Brexit (celebrated by Putin's fascist fans globally); Trump & Brexit were a Kremlin package deal.
Putin doesn't actually need to get Farage elected to wreck Britain (obviously he'd be thrilled if Farage got in, but I think he knows that's not happening at present) - the point is to undermine Britain & to plant that seed of racism, bigotry & division. And Brexit succeeded massively in that.

The issue was always about limiting possible escalation; framing this as a response to DPRK troop deployments will hopefully do that.
But this move also gave cover for France and the UK to allow strikes with *their* weapons. And Trump can’t rescind that.
