"The former commander of the Russian Ground Forces General Chirkin made some rather startling admissions in a live interview: "There are goals in every war and in this special military operation the President of the Russian Federation set the goals of denazification and demilitarization. Any goals are achieved through the solution of a succession of problems -- tactical operational and strategic -- which we have been trying to see since the start of this military operation. To be honest I do not intend to criticize anyone but I think that Russia yet again was not ready for a war just like it"

"There are two interrelated problems with seizing the Russian assets and neither is Belgiums fault. First the EU cannot possibly expect to have Belgium assume responsibility for the seizure. Its a non-starter as I have repeatedly said. If any seizure is to happen the entire bloc must be collectively responsible for the legal fallout if/when Russia tries to recover these assets. The fact that as far as I know only Germany has offered to be part of this is telling me that the other EU countries are unwilling to assume that responsibility which means they fear legal explosure which validates the"

"The document isnt pro-Europe. It squarely aims at undermining the European Union. If that works Europe becomes a geographical term like Germany and Italy before their unifications. It becomes irrelevant globally as a collection of small and medium sized states that are price takers economically and non-entities militarily. Some will become even more dependent on the US others will seek to accommodate all sides and some will drift toward Russia. This administration is not working to enable Europe to function as a partner. It is scrambling to make itself dominant over a much reduced powerless"

"The NSS uses nominal GDP numbers to portray Europes decline because with this metric the US share of world GDP has remained stable at about 26%. But the US has a much higher price level than Europe so its going to be hit hard by the PPP adjustment which is really the metric one should use for the comparison being made and you can see why the clowns who wrote the NSS didnt use it. The PPP-adjusted GDP shares now are XX% for the US and XX% for the EU. China is the largest economy with 20%. The decline is real but its not just the EU its the collective West. And it does not matter what fantasies"

"The more the US pulls out of its European commitments the more imperative the defense of Ukraine for Europes security becomes. Its a fundamental contradiction in the US current strategy to demand adherence to its wishes while simultaneously weakening the lever of influence that had given it the outsized voice in the past. The Trump cabal is stuck in the mindset of American dominance while the reality is dictating partial retrenchment and an overhaul of the transatlantic relationship"

"You are being purposefully obtuse. They clearly mean the small countries bordering Russia you know the ones Moscow is perpetually bullying and trying to snuff out.

"Im going to set aside the claim that Europe is inferior its a clownish take that says a lot more about this idiots insecurities than anything else. Lets take up the U.S. is paying for Europes security claim. Keep in mind that I do think the Europeans were free-riding on US military power and that I do think the EU must evolve into an organization that can make coherent foreign policy in military matters for the collective. Still the claim that the U.S. is just paying for Euros who do nothing for themselves is garbage. I have already explained the American dominance as being part of the"

"The wailing and gnashing of teeth by these guys would be slightly more credible if they were vocal about the X bans in China and Russia as well as the concessions Musk made to operate in Brazil and Turkey just recently.

If X is going to operate outside American jurisdiction it will have to comply with appropriate local and international laws. Musk is free to choose not to operate if he does not like the conditions.

Saudi's Aramco makes that much in X days and ExxomMobil -- in X weeks.

"The US strategy is incoherent. If Trump & Co get their way of pushing for disintegration of the European Union they will force the creation of an European alternative to NATO in which the US will have no say. Ukraine will absolutely be part of this alliance as it currently has the only capable battle-tested military in Europe. The idea that a putative Ukrainian membership in NATO is a roadblock to peace is belied so often by facts that one has to be willfully blind to think that this here changes anything. The Russians know how to keep milking that cow by demanding that NATO change its"

"The large difference between the nominal and PPP-adjusted values for the US (compare with the much smaller adjustment for EU) is the result of the strong dollar which maintains its value due to large global demand and strong financial markets here. While this in itself is an important form of power we are trying to figure out economic output (capacity to produce goods and services) for which the adjustment makes sense. The reality is that both the US and the EU have declined relatively speaking due to the rise of China and others. The nominal value reflects American power (in part through its"
