Someone who’s good with economics, is this good?

I need more powerful world leaders to put this administration in its place. You know how Trump and Vance humiliated Zelenskyy in the White House? I need the same to be done to them.

Perestroika, not even once.

Putin has said he wants Ukraine to drop its ambitions to join NATO, Russia to control the entirety of four Ukrainian regions it has claimed as its own, and the size of the Ukrainian army to be limited. Kyiv says those demands are tantamount to demanding its capitulation.

Well, if I recall correctly, the original terms at the beginning of the war were significantly more favourable: Ukraine could pursue EU membership with no pushback, No NATO, and I don’t even think Russia was going to absorb the eastern territories back then, just that they either had autonomy or whatever they wanted (maybe there were calls for more negotiations on that front but I cannot remember).

But this is what happens when you continue the war and even threaten to “make Russia small again” (Zelenskyy wore a shirt with that statement), the terms have changed after all this time, too much goodwill has been squandered. No way was Russia just going to take it on the chin and roll over. It makes me incredibly sad but what did anyone expect?

Edit: also, don’t those territories want to join Russia now? I believe initially they were only looking for autonomy, but after years of bombings and protection from Russia they’d rather be absorbed now. I could be entirely wrong of course.

Yeah I just saw a video that broke down the math and it’s incredibly weird. Anyway tariffs will definitely save the US!

This makes me think he just hit the tariff button and called it a day

Hopefully they make some great gains by 2030!

The way I would’ve kept my mouth shut and just took so many screenshots and recordings. But he’s not me.

Didn’t he also voluntarily leave said chat as well?

Dutch had just returned from the front lines when we met at the base of his new unit, Ukraine’s lethally effective Third Assault Brigade.

So Azov?

defend American values on Ukrainian soil.

So there’s your problem.

This is what happens when you place incredibly high tariffs on Chinese EVs because the US asked. What did they expect, exactly? Now they wanna cry to the WTO because China is retaliating? Be so for real. This country is so fucking stupid.

But Huawei Mate XT 😔

I’ve never had this kind of phone nor do I know anyone who does, so I can’t give a definitive answer except that the Huawei Mate XT looks so cool.

I’m glad they just outright stated it, of course I am not wholeheartedly believing them but the sentiment is nice.

Edit: the comments on the article are super fucking weird, some are downright offensive.

Typical woke war criminal Putin 🙄

Squeals with orgasmic glee!

Is a weird way of putting it…

This was literally me as I was watching. I couldn’t help but keep cringing, sometimes I had to physically look away.

In all seriousness, I finally watched the exchange and WOW the secondhand embarrassment I felt was strong. I had to watch this in 1.5x speed because it was so bad. I don’t think I’ve witnessed a more uncomfortable and unproductive conversation in my life. I had no faith in Trump, or Vance, to have a proper conversation about ending the war but this was worse than I expected. None of these people know what diplomacy is, also Vance lecturing Zelenskyy for a “thank you”, like he’s a child, was hard to watch and so stupid.

They keep talking about Russian imperialism but I don’t understand what they mean 😭
