It probably started so that Trump would win in 2016 and with Qanon (whenever that was exactly&#8230;) and has continued all the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump would now stand as a great peacemaker who saved Europe and also brought in hundreds of billions to the US, improving the economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And then his faction would have the chance to sit at the top of the pyramid instead of the current gang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bread and circuses &#8211; everything was designed so that Putin would get his share and Trump would look very good, all at the expense of Ukraine and EU security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump probably counted on his popularity to rise and he is strengthening his grip on power in the US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But Zelensky has crashed the whole party exactly because he and Ukraine had integrity, EU finally dared to follow suit as one man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine the nightmare we would have woken up to if Ukraine had given in &#8211; Europe&#8217;s security would be extremely weakened \ud83d\ude32<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One election away and Ukraine would have become pro-Russian-friendly because don&#8217;t think for a second that the country is not a soup of different forces fighting for power and post-war, unemployed soldiers would have flooded Europe like our new unstoppable mafia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We would have been left WITHOUT Ukraine all of a sudden and a million Russians on the border with the Baltics&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And FINALLY, Europe&#8217;s leaders have now understood this as we discussed back in 2022. But yes, everything has its time, and the art is to wait for the right moment, I understand that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now this abyss will not happen thanks to Zelensky and a few hundred thousand fighters in eastern Ukraine, so what they have done for us can never be overstated. But of course, they will be forgotten when history is written.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But not in the history we are going to write post-war in the thread that we are now building up towards \ud83d\udc4d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those of you reading here know that the UA offensive has started and Erik14 reported on new attack vectors up in Kursk recently<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6b0c5df9-9e57-403e-834f-b26c112f2bee_756x437.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6b0c5df9-9e57-403e-834f-b26c112f2bee_756x437.png\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:419px;height:auto\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It will be very exciting to soon hear Trump complain about Ukraine launching offensives and not wanting peace &#8211; my guess is it will happen soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump&#8217;s limit for how far he can push this is somewhere and no one really knows when the backlash will come, but I can promise you it will come if he does not change course immediately, which he probably will not do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But is this really so darn bad?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For three years, Ukraine was not allowed to win, there were many betrayals, and now they have no red cards to adhere to and the EU stood up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For me, the USA is irrelevant after these three years &#8211; I am infinitely disappointed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The hope was that at least it couldn&#8217;t get any worse, but it did by far when Mango Mussolini entered the meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think this is as close as we get to Trump&#8217;s motives and from what I see right now, there is a full collision underway &#8211; a total train crash between Trump and Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because do you know what Trump has today after Truth Social and the two cryptocurrencies &#8211; now he has the money again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a bit like when the left in Iran allied with the Islamists &#8211; you want to tear down the current power structure and then your enemy&#8217;s enemy suddenly becomes your friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Swedish battalion somewhere in the forests of the Baltics<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">With the Swedish Battalion as part of MNB-LVA, we stand strong!  <br><br>Exercise OAK RESOLVE marks Sweden&#39;s first participation in a NATO exercise as part of MNB-LVA.
