Lots of strange geopolitical dynamics emerging
Strange?
For anyone who caters to or considers Putin larger than life politician... this would be perplexing...
Putin has been had at every single point of contention... he acquiesced to the detriment of Russian interests. Just in Ukraine alone... he had given sweetheart deals to Europe to be in their good books... be included, accepted... so much so that Merkel even said the quiet part out loud.
Today after so many casualties and economic losses... and knowing the pickle orange is in... when it was US provided guidance that was taking out Russian refineries... the inevitable goal of which was to have Europe sign longterm energy contracts with US suppliers providing American, Canadian and Venezuelan refined products and distillates.
Now for the midterms orange needs favors... what tangibles did Putin get for Russia? And this isn't even long-term need... Orange just has to cross the hump and that is it...
This isn't geopolitics... this is stupid and shortsighted.
