I don’t think so but I really don’t know. More likely - a professional soldier, with a carrier — on a wrong side…

''on the horizon, there is November, when Donald Trump will most likely take over as US president and confront Ukraine with the choice of either coming to terms, that is, largely Moscow’s terms, or losing American support, that is, collapsing.''

Blackrocks influence is not to be underestimated - they are heavily invested in Ukraine and appear to have a different endgame - the one where the winner takes all.

Blackrock gained control over the Fed and the Treasury while Trump was in the WH.,

I don't agree that Trump will end the war in Ukraine if he wins the election. He has made it clear that he will dictate terms which, if refused by the Russians, will result in a US escalation.

I don't know what evidence you have for coming to that conclusion, but we should acknowledge the possibility that he will betray the hopes of his followers. and of those who grudgingly rank him as the lesser of two evils.

Curious that he warns Putin of consequences for not coming to the negotiating table ("we're gonna give (Zelensky) a lot"), but merely states his expectations of Zelensky. We are left to assume that the consequences for Zelensky of not complying would be that "we're gonna give them nothing more". Yes, anything could happen with a second Trump presidency.
