"Trump thinks about Canada in much the same way Vladimir Putin thinks about Ukraine. He identifies with his fellow imperialist. ... the way Trump talks about annexing Canada bears a disconcerting resemblance to the way Putin talks about annexing Ukraine."

As Evan Hurst notes, it's clear from multiple instances that

"Vladimir Putin mocks Trump to his face, he mocks him behind his back, and he mocks him on live TV in front of audiences of Russians."

Though Fox News and Trump epigones want to pretend that Putin didn't keep Trump waiting for their recent phone call — a humiliation tactic — there's video footage of Putin laughing about this to an audience who laugh back.

Zelenskyy urges EU to address Hungary's veto: This is wrong

In response to #Poland declaration of exit from land mine (Ottawa) convention, #Russia MFA stated it “will take steps to increase its defensive capabilities”.

But land mines do not magically jump over the border and conduct offensives. Land mines are already a 100% defensive weapon so the only case when Polish land mines may cause any problems to Russia is when its soldiers illegally cross into Polish territory and get blown up in result.

The only “defensive step” Russia needs to take is therefore to abstain from invading Polish territory, and Russian soldiers won’t suffer from Polish land mines🤷 It’s really very simple.

P.S. I explained in the past that Russia uses its private meanings for well-established words. In 2010 Russia already absurdly described “Patriot” air defense batteries in Poland and Ukraine’s defensive fortifications in Donbas as “aggressive escalation”. This is because Russia perceives its ability to invade other countries as it wishes as some kind of its natural right or entitlement. Therefore any initiative these countries take to make Russian invasion more difficult reduces this imaginary entitlement, and thus dialectically becomes “threat to Russian security”.

Trump isn't the only one wanting to do business with Russia.

This is disgusting. But not unexpected.

Before #Trump was inaugurated, his incoming admin was briefed by #Biden ofcls about the efforts & urged to continue monitoring #Russia's hybrid warfare campaign, fmr US ofcls said.

However, since Trump took office…much of the work has come to a standstill, acc/to 11 current & fmr ofcls, all of whom requested anonymity to discuss classified matters. Reuters is the first to report on the full extent of the Biden admin effort & how multiple different US agencies have since paused their work….

President Joe #Biden last year ordered his #NationalSecurity team to establish working groups to monitor the issue amid warnings from US #intelligence that Russia was escalating a shadow war against Western nations.

The plan was led by Biden's #NSC & involved at least 7 national security agencies working w/European allies to disrupt plots targeting #Europe & the #UnitedStates….

"Instead, Trump has aligned the United States with Russia, the chief military and political threat to Europe and Ukraine.

In two months, our nation has threatened the sovereignty of Greenland and Panama. Those nations provide vital transportation (shipping) and other services for the Western Hemisphere."

#Trump promised Wednesday to help #Ukraine get back thousands of children allegedly abducted to #Russia . But Yale University's Humanitarian Research Lab, which has been tracking the missing children, lost crucial funding from the US government as Trump made sweeping cuts into foreign aid. The Humanitarian Research Lab -- which is seeking donations to keep going -- says more than 19,000 children have been deported to Russia, with only 1,236 returned.

US ‘deletes evidence’ of #Russia’s kidnap of 35,000 Ukrainian children

“A #Yale University source said the US state department deleted the evidence which would have been used as part of rescue efforts to get the children home to #Ukraine.

It would also have been used to prosecute those behind their abductions – including Russian president Vladimir #Putin.”
