Investors are turning to sanctions-proof bets on Russian bonds and the rouble to wager that Donald Trump’s rapprochement with Vladimir Putin will send a wave of capital rushing back into Russia’s economy.

At this rate, Putin will be our next president.

"...the idea that Putin cannot be confronted is false. Contrary to the Kremlin’s propaganda, Russia is in bad shape. In three years, the so-called second largest army in the world has managed to grab only crumbs from a country three times less populated."

I never hear anyone in the #Media point out:
The LEGAL argument for #TraitorTrump's first #impeachment was that by threatening to withhold Javelin Missiles APPROPRIATED BY CONGRESS from #Ukraine (proving T**** being in office didn't stop #Putin), he was overstepping his authority to direct funds.
NOW he simply has #Musk doing it FOR him. It's every bit as illegal now as it was then, but now he has a packed #SCotUS protecting him. #CriminalPresidency #DisasterPresidency #DOGE
I have been wondering about #Trump's weird cosiness with #Putin and his aggression against #Zelensky. What is it that Putin has on Trump? Here is a plausible explanation. Trump is in huge financial debt with Putin and he doesn't want that to come out. After all Trump is a terrible negotiator and never made a profitable deal.
I'm sorry to say Americans, but you have a corruptible president.

While Hungary's Putin-loving, EU-hating Viktor Orban is busy whipping up more lies, protests are breaking out in Budapest:
Peter Magyar, the Hungarian opposition leader, stated: "Spring is here, the spring of the Hungarians, and together we will end Orban's winter."

#UK announced its plan to deploy 10,000 peacekeepers in #Ukraine, #The_Times has reported.
A military source told #The_Times that about 35 countries have agreed to supply weapons, logistical, and intelligence support to the mission, which is described as a "tripwire force." In the event of a ceasefire between #Russia and #Ukraine, it would deter #Putin from launching a fresh invasion.
President of Finland Alexander Stubb:
"I don't think Putin wants a ceasefire. Putin doesn't want peace. His original aim was...basically to have Ukraine ceasing to exist. He hasn't changed his aim. This is what all of us around the table have to understand."

Here's what we are reading today:
#Ukraine confirmed its troops’ withdrawal from #Sudzha in Russia’s #Kursk region.
The battle in Kursk has become key in negotiations for peace as #Putin cites enemy forces on Russian soil as a hurdle to accepting the U.S.-backed ceasefire deal.
