I think people are missing the reality of the growing US-Russian alliance under Putin and Trump. Its not going to force a ceasefire on Ukraine, it will be to help Russia try to win the war. The US is now an active enemy of freedom.

Russians are under the impression that the USA has their back now, and therefore it has finally become acceptable to talk about the looming Chinese threat. How can Europe use this to its own advantage? Could Europe and China squeeze Russia so that it's forced to get back in line...

Why is the Trump administration *in such a rush* to push the US-Russia deal over the line? a) Screw Europe. American businesses can't wait to return to the Russian consumer market b) The Russian economy is months away from collapse and Poots demands that the sanctions be lifted ASAP
