🇪🇺Ammunition Breakthrough: The Math Behind Europe's Artillery Surge In early 2024, the picture was bleak: 🇺🇸 U.S. supplies had ceased entirely, though they had delivered twice as much as the EU since the war began (2 million vs. ~1 million rounds); 🇪🇺 Europe struggled to scale…

The problem with Trump is not only that he sides with the Russian position in its war with Ukraine, but that he embraces Putin/Medvedev worldview…a competition between three Empires:China, Russia and the US…Europe not around the table but on the menu ….time to become an empire…

Macron’s approval ratings going up now. Trump may end up being the saviour of centrist politics in Europe, with right-wing populism becoming associated with Trump’s weak, erratic “leadership”. Silver linings and all that.

of course he's still talking his stuck record WW3 drivel and lying about 350b $ because all he has is drivel and lies and then he goes golfing while subjecting Ukraine to murder from the skies. His version of " settle" is capitulation to an aggressor. Morally as well as serially…

"I won't provide air defense because I want to stop death" Remember these words. A US president chose to enable russia's airstrikes to compel their victim into submission.

Of course. Russia hates Japan, and Trump's one foreign policy rule is to do whatever Russia wants. Japan needs nuclear weapons immediately.
James Macdonald retweeted
NEW: The actions of Trump and Vance in recent weeks highlight something under-appreciated. The American right is now ideologically closer to countries like Russia, Turkey and in some senses China, than to the rest of the west (even the conservative west).

NEW: YouGov poll reveals Keir Starmer's approval ratings have risen to their highest level in 6 months following his response to the Ukraine crisis. By contrast, the number of Brits with an unfavourable view of Nigel Farage has risen to 65% over the same period.

Japanese Prime Minister Ishiba: "Russia's aggression against Ukraine is an outrageous act that shakes the very foundation of the international order. Such unilateral attempts to change the status quo by force must not be tolerated anywhere in the world."

There are facts that Trump 🇺🇸 just refuses to see. His world is often more a world of fiction.

The events of the past week have bitterly disappointed those who thought they had conveyed to the new administration the seriousness of the threat posed to the West by the Axis of China, Russia, Iran and North Korea. economist.com/international/…
