That is just appearance. Trump is heading for a brick wall with Putin. Russia is very happy to discuss the security architecture after the war but Lavrov has made it clear that Russia will continue the SMO until it has secured all the Russian speaking areas whuich are now part of Russia. It is NATO and Ukraine who desperately need to end the war but not Russia.
The problem with just turning over the Russian Oligarchs' money to Ukraine is that we are a society that believes in the rule of law. That's why the money has been frozen, as opposed to taken.
Please get Jeffrey Sonnenfeld (Yale) on the line. He is one of the few who deeply understands economics, Russia and effects of sanctions. He is also very well spoken and does a great interview
It's naive to think that Russia would behave exactly the same after Putin is gone. Who knows! We don't know. One thing is certain: Russia will NOT behave differently as long as Putin is in power! Putin's demise will be an opportunity for something different, perhaps something more constructive. At the very least, Russia will have something else to think about besides Ukraine for a while! Today's Russia is Putin's Russia in every possible respect, he is the sole ruler of the country. When Putin is gone, things are going to happen.
Why wasn't the new sanctions done on day 1 ? Little bit added from time to time, same with weapons. Looks like it's very much controlled. Why dragging it out ? Money ?
Keep in mind, these are the same clowns that have been claiming Russia was losing the war since day 1 😂😂😂😂 and now they want you to believe Russia is having a hard time economically, when it only takes 1 minute to Google and find out Russia overtook Germany’s place in purchase power, has a 4% growth this year, while the UK, Germany and France have become 3rd world countries 😂😂😂
With the budget deficit growing as Russia boosts military spending, a weaker rouble may suit President Vladimir Putin's government. Recent sanctions on Russian banking which some in Europe consider an attack by the USA on Hungary and others dealing with Gazprom as well as a hit on Russia have unsettled the rouble though it is up today,
Western economies going just swimmingly. Btw ,all this 'Putin' this and that etc is very Ladybird on Geopolitics and patronizing -try referring to 'Russia'.

Not a very accurate analysis. The Russian oil sales are being paid in Rupees, Dirhams and the Chinese currency. These payments then have to be converted to Rubles. At a cost!
Nah, Us has wester allies as japan, s Korea, Australia, Taiwan, Philippines, India, Thailand, New Zeeland and eastern allies as NATO, Israel and Ukraine. So watch out. Don’t hold your breath about china bailing you out.
Russia and North Korea alliance happened well before Trump. It was announced to Ukraine and they should have expected some additional support for North Korea once they entered Russian territory. They were very luck that none of the CSTO partners have entered the conflict. Chinese, Iranian, and North Korean support is not like what Ukraine is getting. Russia is having to pay for everything and their currency is getting weaker. Russia can barter with North Korea. It’s harder to do that with China and Iran.
@ Russia refused to help Armenia against former CSTO member Azerbaijan. Some of the countries have there own disputes with each other. I would also believe most don’t want to end up like Ukraine and prefer a weaker Russia. The problem is Russia has ramped up military capacity and if the Ukraine war ends it will have to use that capacity somewhere else.
The Times and the Spectator never tire of inviting on people who will tell us "Putin is in trouble" or. "Putin won't last long" or "Russia is on the brink of collapse" or "Russians will overthrow the regime if it goes on like this" or "Putin is worried"... These talking heads have been guffing on like this for nearly 3 years... You can *say* such things, but it doesn't mean they're true or likely or based on good judgement. How many of them predicted the sanctions will be effective? Or that the Russians will rebel against conscription? And when these things don't happen, just invite another western commentator or analyst to repeat it. Or Edwina Currie or Ian Duncan Smith or some anti-Putin campaigner or the lawyer of Putin's prisoners, or a military analyst convinced that "Russia will soon run out of equipment". It's all worth basically nothing; much of it is wishful thinking. Go and talk to a Russian economist who can speak and read Russian... heck, go and ask 10 of them, and then 10 Russian political philosophers. Then let's take the average of what they say.
Most American money hasn't been "Gifted" to Ukraine. It's given to the US defence industry who produce and supply weapons in the conflict. The Bill is passed on to Ukraine.
Brilliant analysis. Permit me to add my thoughts. With respect to intimate relationships in an American women's prison, I suggest that Sarah Boone may follow the same patterns she displayed with Brian Boone and Jorge Torres. That is, seeking to control an intimate partner and dominate her through haslighting and other narcissistic techniques. That said, any woman in prison will be safer than Torres because the entire inmate population is under constant surveillance. If she co-opts a male prison guard for privileges, he'll have the advantage of possessing real power over her by virtue of his authority. Any intimate relationship for Boone will come with risks for her, stemming from basic human jealousy. Her intimate relationships are unlikely to last, regardless of gender. After age 60, she'll have less to offer anyone. At best, she may have someone to share her bitterness with and slowly lose her connection with reality. I wonder what the jail chaplain thought of Boone's written statement. It didn't sound very forgiving or Christian to me. More like Marcus Antonius's eulogy of Cæsar in Shakespeare's Julie's Cæsar : 《I come not to praise Cæsar, but to bury him.》 Then, there's a matter of remorse and redemption. Our host, Jumpsuit Pablo, has clearly shown us both with his brutal honesty. I'm impressed ! Sarah Boone is light years away from the same place. Finally, let me be cruel. With a life sentence, Sarah Boone will have amassed so much gold to fill her cracks that she'll be made of solid gold and become intolerably perfect for the average human being. Fortunately, I'll die of old age first. 😂
