It's designed to destroy America's position in the world and is almost certainly a dictate from Russia. I mean they didn't even put tariffs on our most antagonistic supposed adversary, and why would they do that other than he has Trump by the short hairs? for god sakes they put tariffs on penguins on a virtually unknown island nation.

I think that Russia was omitted to give something to use in the peace talks alongside the secondary sanctions that have been threatened. Regardless there should be zero trade happening with Russia because of the sanctions so why would tarriffs make sense.

I also feel that this is a ripping the band aid off approach to destroying globalism. The Biden administration was already toning down the globalism of Peter Ziehan was correct, as we saw with their tepid responses to the red sea fiasco but now Trump has upped the attacks on the houthis too so I'm not quite sure what to think.

Currently the omission looks like it's a message being sent from Russia:

> Hey look, we write US policy, don't mess with Russia or we'll have the US mess with you.

If that's not the case, why not take the zero-cost step to avoid making it look like that's what it is?
