🇬🇱🇺🇸 Moscow hopes Greenland will become an iceberg that sinks NATO, says former NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen.

People of Iran trusted Trump would come to their rescue, they took to the streets, hoping they got support.
But like always Trump did his #TACO thing, and thousands of people died, because the #Iranregime is a killing machine.
You can't trust #Trump and his cronies, like you can't trust #Putin.

What too many people refuse to admit is while they search around frantically for signs that Trump will help Ukraine, what has really happened is that Trump has protected Putin while the Russians have criminally attacked Ukrainian civilian life. This foolishness must stop now.
