If spheres of influence return, Russia falls into Europe's orbit, not the other way around.
Their economy is smaller than Italy's.
You cannot dictate terms to a continent when you are that weak.
Russia is not a superpower

Just a reminder that as of now, Iran is still run by cruel theocrats, Venezuela is still run by far-left socialists, Russia is still run by a destructive dictatorship, and Ukraine is still run by a vibrant democracy.

My hot take on Trump's tariffs against European countries:
1: they constitute economic aggression in order to acquire territory. Europeans will remember this for decades to come. They mean very serious damage to the transatlantic bond on all time horizons.

Please, don’t close your eyes. Scream about Ukraine.
Russia is kіІling us every day.
Every night, it's scary to fall asleep - it's scary not to wake up.
It was a terrible night. So many people suffеred...
Kyiv 💔 How paіnful it is to see this.

The Polish foreign minister, a writer and journalist who covered the Soviet war in Afghanistan in the 1980s, clearly knows a thing or two about a patiently-timed response.

It's Monday. You might hate your job but at least you're not a Russian general about to explain to me how 1/3 of my strategic aviation got blown up in a morning by some cheap Alibaba drones.

This war has never been about security or NATO expansion, only genocide and imperial ambition.
Putin’s fascist regime is willing to sacrifice every Russian life to achieve his goal and tragically, many will cheer him on and love him for it.

Cannot see Ukraine accepting this after all their heroic sacrifices. If they hold firm they must be backed to the hilt by European allies. If the US wants out then let them. It will be a forever stain on that country. We will remember
🚨🚨I understand there is massive pressure on Zelenskyy (US threat of walking away from negotiations) to agree a ceasefire deal (including accepting Russian occupied territories) but the reported #Trump proposal is very bad for #ukraine and he should reject it. 🧵 kyivindependent.com/final-draft-...
Trump's reported 'final' ceasefire offer includes accepting Russian occupation, few benefits for Ukraine
The U.S. reportedly presented its peace proposal last week during a meeting with Ukrainian officials in Paris.

You know what? There are not that many people in the US as a proportion of the world. Only 3 to 4%. It doesn’t have to have the role in global trade that it has had.
