@davidfrum Soviet-era joke:
"An old woman saw a camel for the first time in her life and started to cry. When she was asked why she was crying, she replied, "Look at what the Soviet government has done to the horse!"
In the USSR, you could be jailed ten years for telling this joke.
ivy levan was/still is so underrated and less known to public that she stopped making music for about 6 years now 😔 it's sad because her voice is so fcking unique and she's such a beauty too
context: currently listening to one of her songs 'killing you' ft. sting on repeat 🎶🎶
I am fully aware that my suggestion leads only to blood, toil, tears and sweat. But we have done it before and we can do it again. The alternative is to rebuild the continent after another devastating war, and that would be much harder and take much more time.🧵16/17
Ukraine has a lot to offer to China in return for security—rebuilding, ports, agricultural produce. There will be those in Europe who will support this. This gambit could be called a "Kissinger", splitting the US and Europe as Kissinger split the Soviet Union and China.🧵13/17
I have always felt that China is looking for a way to emerge as the victor, and that is worryingly possible. If the US and Europe don't offer security to Ukraine, China might step into the gap, using its leverage on Russia. They could even offer a better deal than Trump's.🧵12/17
If Europe is unable to stand up, Ukraine will be forced to rely on itself and a smaller group of allies that continue to give support. Threats to European security will grow immensely. Putin will get braver, meaning more war in Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, and beyond.🧵10/17
President Trump will dump this dead cat deal at Europe's door and say take it or leave it. Then it's up to Europe to decide whether or not to stick up for Ukraine and support rejection of the deal.🧵8/17
There is a strong possibility that the meeting between Putin and Trump will result in agreement. Putin is in the position to ask for it all. He might demand an election, the occupied territories, and Ukrainian neutrality. All these ideas have been teased.🧵6/17
