Who knows, maybe NATO'll update to the modern era after this. Maybe.
I don't think the NATO will exist for much longer. I expect the US withdrawing soon, causing a chain reaction.
It's a race to the salted Earth bottom, for sure.
I wouldn't be surprised if this was among the topics discussed during the recent meeting between Trump and Putin. I expect there is already a plan and timeframe.
Discussed? That's generous.
Sales talk. With Ukraine (and other parts of Europe) being sold to Putin. I guess that's why Leavitt looked ashen afterwards. Because she understands the consequences of that deal.
Probably not, at least not while conservatives hold power in allied countries.
