    It is obvious that the USA is working against the EU and Ukraine (and is not our friend as Johan No.1 usually writes).

    They fully support Orbán, who in turn sabotages the EU and, among other things, blocks the much-needed economic aid package to Ukraine of 90 billion euros. Orbán has also confiscated a valuables transport from Ukraine under the pretext that it was related to smuggling. He is entirely at Putin’s disposal and has recently agreed to a new twelve-point plan for even closer cooperation.

    Supporting Orbán in an attempt to help him win the election means simultaneously supporting Putin and Russia.

    Then we also have Vance’s various statements during his visit to Hungary.

    The USA has also approached Belarus, a country even closer to Russia. Some have previously put forward theories that the USA is approaching Russia to get them on their side against the main enemy, China. Some believe it is roughly the same thing the USA is trying to do here, to approach Hungary and Belarus to get them on their side against Russia. Feels a bit naive.

    I am increasingly convinced that the USA is on Russia’s side and wants to help Russia gain more influence in Europe, partly to weaken us but also as an exchange for the USA to strengthen its geopolitical presence on its side of the globe (Venezuela, etc.). A geopolitical division, plain and simple. Johan has been on that track (with the addition that the USA also wants to crash our economy) and it actually seems more and more likely.

    Syria, Venezuela, and Iran are clearly weakening Russia’s influence, but in terms of military matters, it doesn’t cost them much. In Syria, they withdrew everything they could as soon as they saw where it was heading instead of strengthening their presence and helping out.

    Russia is weakened and needs all military capacity themselves.

    Therefore, I believe it has been a relief for Russia to no longer have to continue supplying those countries with weapons. Iran is possibly an exception because they, in turn, have supplied Russia, but soaring oil prices + oil shortages that also make them sell more probably compensate for that (even if it perhaps wasn’t intended to go as far as it did).

    The USA was quick to lift sanctions against Russia, and Vance urges Europe to buy Russian oil.

    I actually no longer see it as just a joke, but as entirely possible that Trump and Putin have coordinated the USA’s attacks on both Venezuela and Iran.

    But regardless, the USA is not on our side, so whose side are they on?

    “JD Vance once again criticized Volodymyr Zelensky during his visit to Budapest, reports Reuters.

    Vance brought up Zelensky’s veiled threat to give Viktor Orbán’s address to Ukrainian soldiers if he does not stop blocking EU aid to Ukraine.

    – It is completely scandalous. A foreign head of state should never threaten a government leader in an allied country, says the American vice president.

    Vance also accused the EU and Ukraine of election interference in Hungary, which is heading to the polls on Sunday.”

    “US Vice President JD Vance lashes out at the EU during his press conference with Hungary’s national conservative Prime Minister Viktor Orbán in Budapest ahead of the election on Sunday. Reuters reports.

    – The bureaucrats in Brussels want to destroy Hungary’s economy by making Hungary less energy independent and driving up consumer prices. They have done it because they hate this guy, says JD Vance side by side with Orbán.

    He believes that the rest of the EU should instead do as Hungary and import Russian oil, according to TT.

    Orbán is trailing the opposition by between 10 and 20 percent in the polls ahead of the election, according to the BBC.”

    “In twelve points, Hungary and Russia list how the countries’ trade, energy, and culture will be further intertwined. The plan, signed at a meeting in Moscow in December but previously unknown, is published by Politico on Wednesday.

    The points range from nuclear fuel and education to culture and sports. Hungary has also agreed to increase Russian language education in the country by flying in teachers from Russia. Overall, the points underline “how close Budapest and Moscow hope to become,” writes the political site.

    Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó responds that foreign policy is only guided by national interests, not by “the extremely biased liberal mainstream media.”

    The election campaign has been marked by news of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s increasingly close cooperation with Russia, and the list is seen as further evidence. The election will be held on Sunday.”

      We kick out Hungary. Geographically becoming a new Kaliningrad but without other access roads than by air.

      If economically strong partners like the USA are after undermining that goal right now. It will be natural resources in Russia with nothing refined beyond that.

      If the USA is to find customers for its refined products, both Russia and the EU aid recipient Hungary have little to offer. At the same time, the EU has signed free trade agreements with India, South America, and things are underway with AU. Together with the Middle East, from a European perspective, there is no need for Russia, the USA, or China with these trading partners.

      I was at the beginning of the Trump administration also of the opinion that he wants to have Russia on his side against China. That may still be relevant, but he is also likely with Russia, against Europe. Russia allows the US to have its sphere of interest in America and partly in the Middle East, while the US helps Russia to have its sphere of interest in Europe.

      Flirting with Belarus is a bit harder to understand, as they already belong to Russia’s sphere of interest. Could it be some kind of influence against the Baltics?

      Trump wants to turn the clock back to his teenage 50s, which was the golden age of the US. Europe was weak after World War II and dependent on the US. The US was untouched with a massive industry, they had control over the seas and oil. No oil crisis and no strong trade unions. The biggest competitor was the Soviet Union, but they kept each other in check with the threat of “MAD”. If the communists got too close, it meant war, and leaders were replaced by controllable dictators.

      Now communism is gone, and Russia is no longer an economic or military threat. However, the EU and China are economic competitors, and China is also a military one. Trump is now going for the lowest hanging fruit, to divide the EU together with his newfound friend Putin, and wants to keep the dictators in power in Europe.

    “While Donald Trump praises the ceasefire in Iran as a ‘total victory,’ concerns are growing among analysts, allies, and even Trump loyalists that the victory lap is being taken prematurely, reports the Wall Street Journal.

    Defense analysts interviewed by the newspaper agree that Iran’s capacity has clearly been diminished by the war, but it is still significant and that Iran can still keep the Strait of Hormuz closed and develop its nuclear program. This is despite US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth saying that ‘every objective was achieved, as planned, exactly as it was laid out from day one.’

    – My biggest concern right now is that in the coming weeks we will realize that we fooled ourselves because we lost courage, rather than achieving real change,” says Newt Gingrich, a Trump loyalist and former spokesperson in the House of Representatives.”

    1. 205

      I perceive that Hegseth is running his own race, within the military, with the Department of Defense, with his own personal agenda, a bit like JD Vance runs his, within politics. They act on Trump’s mandate, but the question is how rooted these two are in the Republican party in general. And if Trump listens to this as well. Mike Pence has expressed it like this, where Trump, with the attack on Iran, acted against MAGA.

    A bit sneaky chart that doesn’t start from zero in the Y-stack, giving the impression that the decline is much larger than it is, but there is still a clear decline in 2024, 2025, and now at the beginning of 2026.
    Things are going well now!

    🇺🇦 Bravo! Zelensky just dropped a cold warning straight to the American people:

    “I want American people to understand: we are your allies in Europe.

    World has no distance anymore — when drones already strike thousands of kilometers.

    One, two, three years — drones will strike ten, twenty thousand kilometers. With reactive engines, they will be very cheap. There will be swarms of these drones.

    You can’t defend that by yourself. The world has to help countries defend themselves and push the aggressor back.

    That’s why, i think, Americans need us, and we need the United States.”

    Who’s listening?

      I don’t think it will happen by 2025.

      Maybe something so it doesn’t become too much of a talking point, but forget that Putin is sitting on a stool in the sunshine

    “Donald Trump claims to protect the American steel industry and has, among other things, imposed high trade tariffs on foreign steel. But when his own ballroom in the White House is to be built, steel from the European company Arcelor Mittal is being used, sources tell the New York Times.

    According to reports, the Luxembourg-based company has donated steel worth tens of millions of dollars to Trump’s highly controversial vanity project. The steel, to be used for the ballroom’s structure, is manufactured in Europe.

    The White House has not provided any details about the donation, but in October, Trump said he had been offered steel worth $37 million. A few days later, he made changes to the steel tariffs that Arcelor Mittal may have benefited from, notes the NYT.

    The steel company has declined to comment on the reports, and White House spokesperson Davis Ingle says that Trump is making the building beautiful without costing the taxpayers.

    – Only people who are deeply obsessed with Donald Trump would see a problem with that, he adds.”

    “❗️ In March, the indicator of the enemy’s total losses increased by 29% thanks to Ukrainian unmanned systems units, — Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Syrskyi

    ▪️Since December 2025, our unmanned systems units have been neutralizing more enemy personnel than the enemy is recruiting into its ranks.

    ▪️Per day, unmanned forces units carry out more than 11,000 combat missions: in March, the number of verified targets hit increased by 50% — this exceeds 150,000.

    ▪️As of the beginning of April, the occupiers have expanded the size of their unmanned systems troops to 101,000 servicemen, and by the end of 2026 they plan to increase this number to 165,500.

    ▪️In March, the number of enemy pilot positions suppressed was 26% higher than in February.”

    Zelenskyy: “Few people can tell US president that he is wrong.” ✊👍

    “🇺🇦 I am ready to meet with Putin. Of course, not in Moscow or Kyiv. We can find such a place in the Middle East, in Europe, in the US, anywhere, — Zelensky for RAI

    ▪️Currently, the trilateral talks with Russia have been postponed due to the US concentration in the Middle East.

    ▪️The US ignored evidence of cooperation between Moscow and Tehran, they trust Putin.

    ▪️Trump team clearly does not fully understand Putin’s intentions.

    ▪️I am one of the few in the world who tells Trump what he thinks. Few people can tell US president that he is wrong. I think we have good relations.”

    Almost a half admission above MXT, I take all the positive I can get 👍

    Yes, it’s starting to look like that, some outliers dismiss all as too conspiratorial when connecting a couple instead of the main direction.

    My worst-case scenario – RU, USA, and China agree to divide the world.

    and that the EU must be kept weak and divided.

    We’re not there yet, but we haven’t seen enough of the USA-China either.

    Low probability for China-USA to succeed in agreeing, but it was also USA-Russia until it wasn’t anymore…

    We live in a CRAZY time sir, and the media at large is still seven exits behind.

    But… the counterattack on Orban is probably a collaboration between Europe’s intelligence services and a first positive.
