I wonder whether we’d be where we are today if the US, Britain and others hadn’t constantly attacked Russia since just after WWII. Russia has put up with decades of this and they’ve also suffered intense provocations over the past seven or eight years: anti-Russia, anti-Putin propaganda, sanctions, military build-up and military exercises along Russia’s western border, and violations of Russia’s airspace, so why should Russians trust the west? Now the west is worried because both Russia and China are building sophisticated aircraft carriers, submarines, and weapons to defend their Arctic and Pacific coasts. What else did the west expect?… Read more »
America and her greedy bankers are also livid that Russia has its hands on the natural resources of the Arctic Circle which their own tech industry needs. Russia’s explorations of the area has also possibly destroyed the globalists green agenda, as if there is all that oil in the area, they will want to develop, extract and sell it, with their own industrial needs a priority and to assist China in their industries. Those of us who think that climate change is a rather overblown scam on humanity wish Russia and China “good luck” for their futures.
If I had the opportunity to say anything to the Russians, it would be… “don’t go”.
I see it as a safety issue, as in the personal safety of any attendees. Just sayin.
Summary of the meeting:
Blinken pointed at Lavrov with his ruler-based international order and said: “At the end of this ruler there’s a no-goodnik world destabilizer.”
Lavrov quickly retorted…. “OK but could you be a bit more specific about which end?”
Blinken, being the natural born salesman he is, demonstrates to his European allies the benefits of the ruler-based international order in the hands of a skilled American statesman, readily bent to fit any agenda or occasion:
Rather effeminate looking hands Blinken has. Not a working man, for sure. Hormone therapy?
I know very many hard working women who, presumably, all have “effeminate looking” hands.
It is indeed, a cultural conundrum.
is there such a thing as a “skilled American statesman?” I can’t think of one.
Skilled in the art of war, like that flying muppet in Braveheart.
