@MsAnjaliB Ugh, I need to do my laundry tonight. Thanks for the reminder. 😭

@MattBoxer94 It's not austerity if it's paired with $4 trillion in tax cuts though.

[Deepak Srinivasan | தீபக் ஸ்ரீனிவாசன் @DeepakInsights]

@MsAnjaliB Fall in love, make mistakes, embarrass yourself, dance in the rain, and work hard, but never so hard that you forget to live.

And remember, no matter what, always be kind. That’s what makes you truly successful.

Aur haan… apni maa ka kehna suno. She’s always right!

@MsAnjaliB At 21, you think you know everything. At 30, you realize you knew nothing. At 40, you start figuring things out. And at 50, you laugh at your 21-year-old self. So, don’t take life too seriously.

@ConflictDISP @SteveKerins, is this a color revolution?

[Deepak Srinivasan | தீபக் ஸ்ரீனிவாசன் @DeepakInsights]

@Zprtr1 Kyiv Post is reporting this now too, @SteveKerins. This is going to be earth-shattering if it happens.

@SteveKerins It's going to be a long 3 years and 11 months.

@SteveKerins Kissinger said something like this once, no? Something about not knowing who to call when he wants to talk to Europe?

[Deepak Srinivasan | தீபக் ஸ்ரீனிவாசன் @DeepakInsights]

@SteveKerins Yeah, I think the question of whether they step up will ultimately determine the future of Europe. If they don't do so within weeks, Trump's deal with Putin is going to become a fait accompli. That's why Trump is pushing to get this done fast.

[Deepak Srinivasan | தீபக் ஸ்ரீனிவாசன் @DeepakInsights]

@SteveKerins Is Europe capable of stepping up to fill the gaps left by the US? Do they have the willingness?

[Deepak Srinivasan | தீபக் ஸ்ரீனிவாசன் @DeepakInsights]

@MattBoxer94 Trump is one. Who else dodged the draft?

[Deepak Srinivasan | தீபக் ஸ்ரீனிவாசன் @DeepakInsights]

@SteveKerins Of course, it remains to be seen if they can agree to a deal. But this is as good an offer as Russia could reasonably hope for, so I'm not sure why they'd say no.

Ukraine might still refuse, which would then leave it to Trump to force them into compliance.

[Deepak Srinivasan | தீபக் ஸ்ரீனிவாசன் @DeepakInsights]

@SteveKerins If they agree to a deal, I think it's likely that Putin rides out Trump's term to consolidate his gains before he thinks about any further excursion. If he humiliates Trump, a lot of his gains could be reversed.

[Deepak Srinivasan | தீபக் ஸ்ரீனிவாசன் @DeepakInsights]

@SteveKerins This has been a stunning turn of events. I was still skeptical as late as December that Trump would actually be able to bring this war to an end at all, let alone that he would seek to end the war on these terms.

[Deepak Srinivasan | தீபக் ஸ்ரீனிவாசன் @DeepakInsights]

@SteveKerins If Putin can land this deal while getting sanctions removed, he'd have accomplished all of his war aims.

[Deepak Srinivasan | தீபக் ஸ்ரீனிவாசன் @DeepakInsights]

@SteveKerins Trump is likely to remove all US troops from the Baltics as well, but given that they're already in the EU, I still think their independence is likely to hold for the foreseeable future.
