As expected, Trump has soften is tone on Putin in less than 24 hours. From threatening Putin with " very angry and pissed off over Putin to " big, big problems" to a softer pullback that he " don't think he's going to go back on his words" and pally reminder that he know Putin for a long time. Then back to his attack on Zelensky with warning of ' big big problems". TRump's incoherency on Russia and Ukraine continue on. This man is proving to the world that he is untrustworthy and can't be rely on to assure any security commitment to the allies around the world.

Not the first time he was owned. But he will keep getting back with his delusional fantasies.

Yale published a list of US Companies still continuing business as usual in Russia. Go find out.

US also trade with Russia. Will Trump impose a sanction on himself? Trump is not much of a thinker or to put it correctly an idiot with a loose mouth.

Waiting for the rubes in this forum to respond that Trump's policy incoherency is a 3 dimensional chess play.

Took him a 2 months to know what Biden already know that Putin is a bad faith actor and is stringing Trump all along. Now he is adopting a version of Biden's plan of carrot and stick.

Putin does best in his Art of Procrastination. He is not a serious peace maker. Ultimately the Russian people or the military will kicked him out as the economy suffocate.

He did the next cowardly thing and ran away from the epicentre of the controversy. Fled to Hawaii and then proceeded to Iwo Jima. Meanwhile Vance and Waltz fled the scene to Greenland.

Extract from Axios that provide more clarity to Hyundai investment. It was May 2022, more than two years later, when Hyundai actually made the announcement. And it was President Biden's hand — not Trump's — that Chung shook in Seoul as he unveiled a $10 billion U.S. investment plan that included Hyundai's first dedicated electric vehicle plant near Savannah, Georgia.

Hyundai had announced their 2025 expansion plans during the Biden's administration. This official announcement by Hyundai was made 3 days before Trump impose auto tariffs of 25%.

There is no such thing as an all American made car and no automakers will invest billions to made car in America due to the idiosyncrasy of Trump in his on-off again policies. Elementary Johnny.

Pathetic attempt at equivalence.

US allies are looking at this bunch of clowns and amateurs handling the sensitive intelligence sloppily are wondering if they trust US to protect their secrets as they bound to protect theirs. They are astonished and worried just how the Trump and his administration are downplaying the leak that will have implication for broader intelligence sharing among allies in the future. theguardian.com/world/2025/mar/26/canada-five-eyes-security-signal-leak-white-house-response

Even Fox can’t defend this clown. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5211960-fox-brit-hume-hegseth-response-war-plans-leak/

Not Israel or the the country's Jews but the war mongering regime such as regime of Benjamin Netanyahu. You need to stay in context and resist generalisation.

Israel disregarded the Treaty on Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and has a stockpile of nuclear warheads which triggered a race in the middle-east countries for nuclear deterrent. Yes, Israel take the blame for nuclear weapons proliferation in the middle-east.

I do agree with you on diplomacy and not threats. IMHO the path to incentivize Iran not pursuing nuclear weapons is to strive for establishing middle-east to be a nuclear weapon free zones in line with UN long standing resolution. Also in line with the treaty on non-proliferation of Nuclear weapons. Isreal is the only country in the middle-east to have nuclear weapons and is escalating tension in the neighbouring middle-east countries.

Those Russian shills are just following their dear leader in spewing propaganda BS. Point in case, dear leader was briefed by his intelligence staffs including CIA that Ukrainian troops were not encircled by Russian but yet he repeated Putin's propaganda bs that the UKrainians soldiers were surrounded. .

Trump is escalating the tension in the middle-east with his threats and Iran will never yield. He should instead continue the work of United Nation on establishing the middle East Zone free of nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction. Simple common sense that he will never grasped.

Trump has been played again. Putin and Netanyahu both reneged on their ceasefire.

Not taking away from your well thought-out analysis as regards to the nuclear power plants. My 2 cents worth of take away was that Zelemsky humoured Trump and Trump doesn't even realized that he was teased. Trump laid out his idea that US could own and run Ukraine's power plants as part of his ceasefire plan. Zelensky replied was that they can talk about 1 plant (Zaporizhzhia) which is under Russia occupation. That was a rather smug reply and a kind of telling off Trump go talk to your good friend Putin as I am not interested. Of course the buffon does not understand subtlety.

Easy to win over Trump with flattery. But don't count on his short attention span and his unpredictability. Putin is made to be seen as a warmonger and do not want peace. Nice move Zelensky.

A book called "Art of the deal - the sarcastic version".

He said he will resign if Ukraine can secure lasting permanent peace. That's a patriot speaking.

It was an audacious plan and served strategic purposes at that time. Putin was embarrassed and had to move troops from the heavy fighting in the Eastern front to Kursk. It was also meant to give Ukrainian bargaining leverage. Ukraine has now have developed longer range drones that terrorised Kremlin and that has given them bargaining leverage. Putin has to concede a 30 days ceasefire on infrastructure attack. They didn’t succeed in Kursk. Military strategy is dynamic as conditions changed.
