All that’s missing is finding some poison in Lindsey AND going public with it … many IFs there but oh well

Trump is going to support one of the recently deceased Senator Lindsey Graham’s pet issues – namely a sanctions package against Russia. This is according to a source within the White House to Bloomberg.

The package is intended to put pressure on the Kremlin by punishing countries that trade with Russia or buy Russian oil.

Previously, the White House has opposed sanctions against Russia, citing that they would undermine efforts to mediate peace through diplomacy.

India and China, not least. India is dependent on Russian military equipment as well as Russian oil. It would be good if alternatives could be provided. India is also concerned that Russia will come under China’s direct influence and sees its own partnership as a threshold. India sends many guest workers to Russia. It is quite a close relationship. The EU has recently strengthened its relationship with India. In connection with increased sanctions, Europe and the USA should make joint efforts to lift India out of Russian dependence. If India can be connected as an ally, the pressure on China can increase.

I don’t believe it’s just business as usual but also quite a few bribes (and possibly extortion) behind it. Nothing has happened in the war that could lead to suddenly wanting to let them back into the fold. On the contrary, the number of killed and injured civilians in Ukraine is increasing every day, so the resistance against Russia should be the same if not higher.

Kallas can be trusted!

What you get away with, you do. An inner compass is missing.

Flying home with the “old plane” may have been due to reasons such as a declared and well-identified threat from Iran against the president. From a security perspective, predictability is a weakness that can be exploited — the most likely scenario (documented by the media’s attention to the change) would be to fly home with the same plane one arrived with. To then claim security flaws in the “new plane” in this context, which from this perspective may therefore be completely unfounded, might not benefit national security?
