I read that trump wants sanctions on Russia, I don't think he knows what he's doing. He should help Europe, we helped them with both Iraq and Afghanistan, Even though Vance distasteful comment about our involvement. Vance as well only knows what he's seen on tv , neither have them gone to Ukraine to see for themselves the destruction.

I'm sure my brother working in a profession would say the same. Alot of non PC banter, even on race lines. Not pretty but it is a reality in less educated workplaces.

It is not clear why he SHOULD help Europe. I think there is a civil war going on there - for example, the commander-in-chief of Ukraine Syrskyi's parents still live in Russia and he himself was born in Russia.

And, let me remind you, Russian ships defended the North from France and Great Britain during the American Civil War.0 -
Yes but that was years ago. Ukraine during ww2 were on Germany side. My brother a history buff tell me this. But we are In the present day.

But civil war now! This is one of the explanations for its cruelty - everyone thinks that he is right, and the enemy is mistaken. In the previous civil war, Britain armed the losing side, since then British Mark V tanks stand there as monuments.

Wrong - Ukraine joined Soviet Union AGAINST Nazi Germany in WW2 !!!
And stayed aligned with Soviet Union until 1991, when a referendum registered 81.7% of voters who wanted independenceโฆโฆโฆ..

The majority of Ukrainians were conscripted into the Red Army when Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union. During this time, some Ukrainians chose to collaborate with the Nazis, either voluntarily or through conscription, particularly in units like the Galicia Division. These individuals viewed the Nazis as potential liberators from Soviet rule, although this hope ultimately proved to be false.
Fast forward to 24 August 1991, when the Supreme Soviet of the Ukrainian SSR adopted the Act of Declaration of Independence of Ukraine. This significant step was later confirmed by a national referendum held on 1 December 1991. Over 90% of the Ukrainian population supported independence in the vote, signalling a decisive break from the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union itself officially dissolved on 26 December 1991, following the signing of the Belovezh Accords on 8 December 1991, by Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus.

haha!
In Western Ukraine, which Stalin took from Poland in 1939 (Poland is part of the Russian Empire) and added to Soviet Ukraine, there was Bandera, who supported the Nazis. Stalin also took over parts of Hungary and Slovakia and added them to Soviet Ukraine, which is why Orban and Fico are against today's war. Eastern Ukraine, where the war is now, fought as partisans against the Nazis.
Very very confusing.
What is Great Britain doing in this tangle of snakes?0 -
81.7% โฆ Over 90%โฆ What other numbers will there be? 1984%?
Let me remind you that these referendums were held under the power and full control of the Communists. For example, EU Kaja Kallas' father has been a member of the Communist Party since 1970. Like Yeltsin (since 1961) and Putin (since 1975).
So the collapse of the USSR was completely controlled by the communist authorities. Zelenskiy is the first who is outside the influence of the Communist Party and it seems he was unable to reach an agreement with the authorities of neighboring countries that left the CPSU.0 -
Today loopy Trump has decided to charge tariffs at 200% on Alcohol from EU - Whether that includes UK (Scotch) is unclear - but could mean that US residents will have to survive on Bourbon instead of Scotch !
oh yes, he bought himself a Tesla yesterday - but is not allowed to drive it !
Because his driving licence expired over 4 years ago, at age 74 and has not been renewed !!
Can you imagine Trump driving any car - he would be extremely dangerous, demanding the right of way at every junction

That's not exactly true. It's a retaliation threat of imposing a 200% tarriff on the EU if it doesn't remove the 50% tarriff they've imposed on American whiskey.
Let's see where the chess pieces move again.

@Wibbles that gave me a laugh thank you ๐!! We need to be able to laugh, i wouldn't stop crying i think if I started. He'd probably think of something to ban everyone from driving/wrong colour car etc so he'd have the roads all to himself. My eyes have rolled so much ๐๐คจ๐คฃ since he got in and all his shenanigans. Might send him my opticians bill if it damages my eyes. He's dangerously deranged ๐ช๐ฅน

I think you'll find egister knows Eastern Europe far better than the rest of us.
In any case, it's not ok to insult people here just because you disagree with something.
