Top-US-Unterhändler warnte die Europäer, dass Russland Raketen lagert

Ah yes, stockpiling, sure they are, given they have been net negative on pretty much their stocks of every piece of military hardware in their failed special military operation. Net negative on their stocks of gold and gasoline too.

It’s Daniel P. Driscoll, secretary of the army who is unqualified, selected for connections to the administration, compromised.

That’s nice dear

The Trump team’s logic (?) here is absolutely nuts.

I’m not a geopolitical expert like the crack squad Trump has surrounded himself with, but even a neophyte like me can see that giving Putin concessions now — so he can threaten Europe more effectively later — is insane.

Their whole argument boils down to: Russia is stockpiling missiles, therefore Ukraine should rush to accept a bad deal. That’s not diplomacy. That’s the geopolitical equivalent of, “The mugger bought a bigger knife, so hand over your watch faster.”

And the article itself completely torpedoes the pitch:

– Russia won’t slow missile production after a peace deal

– Russia becomes more dangerous if it’s rewarded

– A cease-fire just lets Moscow build an even bigger stockpile for the next war

If this is the level of strategic thinking coming out of the Trump camp, then Putin doesn’t need more missiles; he’s already getting everything he wants for free.

At this point, the only thing left is Trump’s team asking Putin whether he’d like Ukraine wrapped or bagged.

Are they going to ask Russia if they can do a deal over this?

Ngl that pic is hilarious

US top negotiator wants us to believe what the Russians told him to tell us.

What kind of missiles though, old soviet stockpiles or those state-of-the-art civilian building seeking missiles?
