Do you think you Europe can just turn off gas or something ? Like there would be no logistics challenges to replace the supply? Why did Russia continue to supply gas? It wanted the money... Clearly the European strategy was the one that you probably praise Trump for, trying not to isolate Putin and Russia by buying their gas and using appeasement. They had agreements with Russia that were broken and and have to pivot away from them. Russia was benefiting massively and still broke their promises and broke trust, for what? So look where appeasement got Europe and Ukraine and it look where it will get Trump and the USA. Personally, you're argument and history supports the idea that Trump is making a massive mistake with it's new "strategy". Russia only understands force. |

Cause it makes them money. Artillery shells cost money.

I am not praising Trump, sound like your strategy of appeasement of an enemy is to hand them hundreds of billions of euros.

Exactly. They were fools and now are acting confused Putin took advantage of them, right after they saw him capture Crimea. Moreover, they criticized Americans for telling them not fund a war criminal.

They only understand force, I agree. I am not sure why you suggest otherwise?
