penetration of hardened shelters

Like (underground) bunkers?

Technically the EU won’t " touch" the assets. They’ll use it as a collateral for a loan with a conditional future warreparation from Ruzz.

Add: And yes, this legal manoeuvring has no precendet afaik. It’s really very creative.

Iirc, Trump’s original bill contained zero help for ukraine and cutting like 20% of the US military budget and personnel in the Eastern Sentry . It was actually a Congresssional majority of Reps and Dems that then force changed the budget to include (some) help to Ukriane and to keep the US Mil Eastern Sentry budget as is.

And according to politico, Italy, Bulgaria, Malta and Czechia have joined the group of dissenting countries.

Yips, 800 M is more than nothing. But under Biden it was like 175 B just for context.

You have any news on this? Technically any business deal with a sanctioned country is hard. If you mean the "2 T US$ " deal Trumptraitor Inc wanted to make, it is related to unsanctioning RF economy and regaining G8 status, part of the first 28 point Ruzz-Witkoff draft , which seems to have been abandoned by the European Zelensky- Rubio version… But could be there are still 2 versions circulating.

Nothing happened after 5 hours of scratching each other’s balls. So imo it won’t ever happen.

While Nato’s Rutte said in a recent press briefing he was arranging a more structural delivery (procurement) system and other news sites talked even of new equipment? Not sure what’s going on.# Ed

I believe you.

I was under the impression that A.P had gone completely off script with the title. But when I clicked the link, I noticed that you had completely changed the title. A bit confusing, though I agree with your assessment.

You can always post your opinions separately and in comments wherever you want, and keep it cleaner.

Probably easier than one would think…

Gandalv on Xitter:

In a surprise statement that left diplomats choking on their coffee, Ursula von der Leyen reportedly announced that the EU is “open” to recognizing Alaska as Russian territory if it helps settle the whole Crimea thing once and for all. “Look, the Americans barely use the place except for reality TV and bears,” she allegedly said, shrugging as if she were trading Pokémon cards and not chunks of sovereign land.

According to sources, she concluded by noting that “this is how grownups negotiate,” before pointing out that if Trump can hand out Europe like party favors, she might as well join the fun.

The Kremlin was said to be “deeply intrigued,” mostly because they hadn’t even asked for Alaska yet, but appreciated the enthusiasm. Washington, on the other hand, responded with its usual composure.

Experts agree the whole episode highlights the new era of diplomatic innovation, where global leaders spontaneously auction off territories they don’t own in exchange for ones they also don’t own, all in the noble pursuit of “peace” or at least a quieter news cycle .

I have never believed in this US-Ruz Plan, so personally I can’t take it seriously. I think strategically that in the end, we have to force Ruzzia in a position that they’ll have no other option but to ask for a ceasefire and real negotiations. Unfortunately, I see no other way they will stop. Could very well be that we are reaching this point faster then we think, like you said.

I’d say look for them to put on poker faces

For sure, this is the way.

The Allies put severe restrictions against the Germans after the treaty of versailles, and that was never adhered to.

Yes. Had never thought of that.

Yeah, I agree. His agenda is to be bought, if he hasn’t already by Putin.

I’m now even more disgusted by the newest events alconcerning the " peaceplan" by the Trumptraitor than I already was.

I’ve been checking for a European reaction to the newest disclosures, but major politicians are (too) quiet. There are rumours that Kallas isn’t talking to USA any longer, because she finds Rubio, whom is the only hawk, too soft on Ruzz. And she’s probably not the only one.

Thankfully, most Europeans won’t get carried away and get trapped by the deliberate Ruzz/USA scheme to distant the allies. But I imagine that the latest diplomatic/corruption scandal by Steve Witkoff et all, will have profound repercussions.

This whole new scandal is huge, no idea what tomorrow might bring. Also I’m somewhat surprised that the USA congress is not more outraged. Seems like Witkoff is the (only) nominated fallguy.

Thanks for the indirect reminder. Done it and let’s do it now so they can use it in time on Xmas and before the banking holidays.

We should be happy that the children stay safe in their school bunkers for their safety. But it’s aslo sad that they can’t go to normal schools look out of the window and see the sun anymore. This too is part of the harsh reality, for now.

I was surprised too. So, seems Ortega is in control again since 2025, and he’s a dictator news link. Apparently according to OPs article and this link there is definitely Ruzzian connection.

The Zino-RuZo axis has been unfortunately successful in spreading their wings of death.
