    After an hour-long phone call with Putin, Trump
    came away with - and admitted - the truth of
    the matter ... Putin has ZERO interest in peace,
    plans to attack Ukraine until he has re-posessed
    the entire country and doesn't care HOW many die.

    Next up, some big "punishment" for Ukraine taking
    out so many of his big bombers. It WAS a brilliant
    well-managed attack ........

    Trump is kind of stuck here ... Vlad was NOT nearly
    as reasonable as he thought. Also the USA is NOT
    in the mood to fund an eternal war in Ukraine
    any more - though I do suspect some 'round-about
    support using EU/NATO countries as proxies for
    political appearances.

    The tighter trade/energy/mil relations between
    Russia and China/NK also complicates things.

    The previous Trump/Putin relationship was BEFORE
    the war - different times. Back then Putin DID
    seem more reasonable but NOW he's on a holy
    crusade to rebuild the entire old USSR. He's
    not so young anymore, maybe hears the clock
    ticking, thinks he must make his place in
    history (if there IS any more) sooner than later.

    However the BIG prizes are still to come up -
    Poland, the Baltics, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia,
    maybe some bits of Finland ...... THERE is where
    a WW-3 - smaller or larger - can happen easily.

    Slovakia has gone full Moscow already. It's
    causing problems. Hostility against the Czechs
    is escalating.
