    Zekenskyy did the best he could; he came in humility and he really didn’t have any cards at that table. He had no cards because he didn’t come to play, he came to capitulate to the whims of a tyrant to try and save the lives of his countrymen by signing a one-sided deal.

    That video will go down in history as one of the greatest moments of infamy in this age - if there were any justice Trump and the puppet masters behind him should be tried for the spark that lit the third world war.

      I read what happened, and after I knew I watched the video clip.

      I’m still under shock.

      The world is turning, this is an important point in history. I was in disbelief for a long time, but we Europeans can’t trust the US anymore.

      This might be a good thing after all, we need to wean off the American teat and decouple ourselves. We need our own tech stacks, we need our own EU troops and we need our own whatever Nato once was.

      We need to jump in and cough up the money to replace the Ukraine Support the US did.

      I’m fucking afraid, the risk of
      an even bigger war just greatly increased.

      But whatever will happen we’ll never be able to trust the USA again, even if things get better there’s no guarantee the same shit happens again 4 years later.

      The only rational thing is to isolate ourselves from the sick patient.
