It's an interesting situation. Trump wants an end to the war and Europe is seeming to want to continue it. I don't think Europe alone can reverse the way the war is going, leading to a Ukrainian victory. There's a lot of US dependency in both the EU and NATO. One of the big things Ukraine needs is boots on the ground. Will the EU and NATO be willing to do this? If they do then we move into the realm of WWIII.

 

Zero chance of NATO troops joining that war. None. 

 

It seems to deeply irritate some in the West but NATO owes Ukraine nothing.

You have got that totally about face IMO.

He wants to end the Russian invasion of Ukraine and allow the world to split into three spheres of influence.

1. USA

2. Russia

3. China

With him as the great leader/negotiator.

Those 3 have had the largest armies for a long time.

What do you mean, split? 

 

That split has been in place for my entire lifetime.

Fine. When the US is next attacked as in 9/11, Europe can shrug it off, it's just an American war.

 

   Why cant the E.U mobilise its armies and go and fight Russia .

A United European Army going to fight their own battles instead of asking the USA to fight their wars for them ?

The Russian land mass is 17 million square kilometres, the biggest country on the planet.  Ukraine is a mere 600,000 square kilometres, but the soil in eastern Ukraine is the richest on the planet.

 

Wars are about theft writ large, and Putin has a well-earned reputation as a kleptomaniac.

 

IMO he is focused in the wrong direction. Eastern Siberia is a treasure house of all kinds of resources, and China needs them.

 

What's the bet if Ukraine becomes all out war between the EU and Russia, China won't be stabbing Putin in the back?

You have life all figured out amazing.

Trump wants an end to the war

Everyone BUT Russia wants an end to the war.

 

So why has Trump suddenly split the one alliance that could stop it spreading and thereby  creating the foundations for WW111?

 

I suggest it is just the threat of WW111 that brings this about so that he subsequently, without any justification as usual, can  claim later that he has brought about peace by creating the new Triumvirate of USA, Russia and China with him as it's unelected dictator!

Whatever your taking I suggest you slow down a bit. If anything Trump wants to draw Russia away from China. 

Exactly. Friends with Russia, isolates China. Makes them weaker. Better trade deals. Trump is 10 steps ahead of leftists online.

That's a great move, escalate the situation with talk of Nukes to the country with the most, way to go froggy

The number is immaterial.

The possession and the acceptance by the other side of your determination  to use them in extremise is what counts.

Both France and the UK maintain at least one SSBN on patrol at all times. 

USA, Russia and China have their own SSBN's on patrol as well.

In addition other countries also have their own nuclear weapons which are capable of delivery by various means out with the SSBN scenario.

Contrary to false and misleading statements both the French and UK systems are TOTALLY independent of any control or limitations by any other country.

Hitler is a comparison, for which the World stood together to end the aggression, many on here want Ukraine to lose its land, I find that strange...........😏

 

Didn't half of Europe get split up and ceded to Russian control to end WW2? Are you saying the war was a clean victory and no countries got screwed over to bring it to an end?

Only the bits of then Europe that they occupied got realigned because the western Allies were too slow to cross the Rhine and slow the Russian advance into Berlin.

The Brits blame Paton and the Yanks blame Montgomery for being late and the French blame everyone with their white flags!

Eisenhower of course blamed nobody and accepted all the credit since Roosevelt had died and Churchill was out of power.

Only the bits they occupied? So if history repeats itself what does that mean for the bits of Ukraine already occupied?
