Re: The Donald Trump thread

Zelensky has to accept that putin has grabbed and will keep what he has

I think then a multi agency force or weaponry of some kind .....even if it's just lightweight .....has to happen

If Russia really wants to take over Ukraine , the baltic states etc etc then unless there is a huge army or the threat of a nuclear strike facing him then let's be honest .....he's going to eventually do it

I think starmer is doing his best in a very difficult situation

I would imagine behind all this hand shaking and greetings zelensky is having to accept that putin has unfortunately over powered him and always will

Yeah just give up on what’s lost, let Putin think he’s won as this is what they thrive off. But he can’t incur on anymore land….need peacekeepers there I’m sure but at least the blood shed ends. Having the yanks getting what they really want out of it will also bring further security…

I think Europe still holds the cards in terms of hurting Russia financially. Even with a trade deal, the US aren't really going to be buying russian gas and oil, they have enough of their own. The Chinese and Indians will have it like they do now, but at a very steep discount. The damage done to Russia financially if we continue to not buy their energy is huge and will start biting them.

Saw up thread discussions about life expired equipment being sent out. I know that was certainly the case with the Germans at the start, can remember stories of warehouses that needed breathing apparatus to enter because the wooden boxes containing the equipment was so mouldy, a lot of it was old east German stuff I believe. Not sure on the age of the American kit, but it seems like trump wants the Ukrainians to be the first to ever pay 'book price' for large orders, and then add on 50% plus. I hope the Ukrainians call his bluff, do deals to pay everyone else back, and tell the yanks to shove it

They might have the same social problems we do, but they’ve also decided to dedicate just short of a Trillion Dollars to their military spending despite being bordered by 2 allies and sitting ~5000 miles away from their main “enemies”.

Alaska is 53 miles away from the Russia mainland and the US Little Diomede Island is 2.4 miles away from the Russian Big Diomede Island, so they could literally have a battle using peashooters!

You should have this pained on the side of your house.

Re: The Donald Trump thread

I actually agree with your post. The very best a United Europe could have done years ago was to have built-up a strong European Military and have abandoned the USA years ago by treating it as a Geopolitical threat to be kept at arms distance.

Dorcus, you need to clear your PMs to receive the one Ive sent you.

Nah, I don't need it.

On the other hand you appear to need regular reminders.... have you got a blank gable end?

You could look at it every day from the top of your fence!

Empty land doesn’t typically tend to start invasions. But if the few thousand people in Lavrentiya and Provideniya did fancy their chances against the townsfolk of Nome, I don’t think the Americans would need to send an aircraft carrier along.

For settlements bigger than Rhiwbina, there’s about 2,500 miles between Anchorage and Yakutsk.

Re: The Donald Trump thread

Just seen that panorama documentary on the last few days of nonsense

And what a load of nonsense from Trump and his crew it was

I am absolutely astounded that anyone over here can admire that xxxx and the way he behaves

It was way too short and hopefully there will be more decent programmes on it all

I am sure there will be trump t shirt wearing clowns throwing stuff at the tv and saying the BBC is left wing and biased but fck em
