@@Alastair_Adana It doesn't have to be the Americans. Frankly, it shouldn't be either. You have the Fins and the Swede's in the North with a British and French backdrop, that can take care of the Baltic. Those same countries with additional support from the Americans, Canadians and the Danes in the Arctic. Turkey and to a lesser extent French, British, and the Americans at the Black Sea and the Mediterranian. Europe has to face the idea that American military support is going away, was always going to go away. This is a European conflict and must be dealt with, primarily, by the Europeans. They will hang around for a while with Ukraine, and if things go sideways there quickly, they will be there with NATO. But there does have to be a shift in the Eurozone that they no longer can just focus entirely on trade and production, with the US shouldering the bill for military power, that deal is in its twighlight years and will be gone before you know it.

Trajectory is currently irrelevant. The sanctions imposed up until now will take at least a decade to recover from. Every month that passes adds close to another year to that. Further enforcement steps like secondary sanctions and holding sellers responsible for where their goods end up will multiply these effects. I like Peter's idea of a blockade though. That would have a drastic impact on the rate that other sanctions bite too. Plus reduce willingness to evade sanctions by folks that don't already do it for the likes of NK/Iran.

Great Interview! Two clever ones! :) Peter has a new hat today! ;)

Peter is a great analyst 👏. Thx for the interview 👍

[@Aslak1979]

Interestingly Belarus is surprisingly quiet. I think Lukashenko is very afraid of a new public uprising as the one we saw a few years back where he was recorded seen landing in a helicopter in full public and running with a Kalashnikov in his hands. Belarus is very unstable and wants to break free from his dictatorship. So keep an eye on that region please 🙏

[@1001Balance]

If Nato is smart they would topple the Belarus regime.

[@war-painter]

ISIS last night headed for the border of Belarus after terror bombing Crocus concert hall in Moscow

[@CosmicHyperborean]

Belarus isn’t at all unstable and Lukashenko is quite popular, so likely no phony ‘color revolutions for democracy’ in Belarus funded by western intelligence agencies and people like Soros.

[@venomsoul1147]

You already free Ukraine from the legit elected president - now look at consequences.

[@jsb1585]

Even if he was willing, Lukaschenko is in a poor position to do much. His military is small and focused on internal regime security, not expeditionary power projection. He's had a history of oscillating between closer ties to Russia and emphasising Belarus' identity as an independent state. Better for him to lay low, rather than risk destabilising his vulnerable position.

It seems the more Russia advance the more this channel talks nonsense. It's not even fair on people. Giving them false hope when Ukraine are being routed.

[@stochastic42]

@@Evergreen0021 The more they advance? Russia controls far less territory than they did near the start of the war and they are barely advancing. I'm guessing this is just a Russian bot account...

[@MyDomesticChiffchaff]

​@@Evergreen0021Russia "advances" a little bit only when Ukraine gets no weapons from nato. On the scale of Ukraine the whole advance is miniscule. Even when at some point Russia seizes the whole Donbas region the gains/casualties ratio is extremely bad for Russia, especially considering NATO lost almost nothing

[@Historyfan476AD]

A very dangerous one too.

[@MyDomesticChiffchaff]

​@@Historyfan476ADas dangerous as providing lethal aid to Ukraine, as dangerous as crossing all the other "red lines". What will Russia do, nuke France because some French soldiers step on Ukrainian soil? They are already there unofficially. All Russia can do is say "well, French soldiers are now a target". That's all.

... Rostov-on-Don and Voronezh should also be on the neutralisation list, alongside Belgorod. I have no clue how, but following a strategy of denial of logistics, they have to be high up there

Can we get some input around the small issue of “oh yeah nukes will fly”. Mine adding some context around that tiny issue?

[@Patrick-kq9fy]

Interesting things happening in Belgograd... A report yesterday states former Wagner fighters join the FRA and are punching above their weight. Russian troops that surrender don't want to be POWs, but are asking to fight with the FRA on their march to Moscow. Now... this is an interesting dynamic first expressed with the Wagner revolt. Now, Russian Free Army can recruit from the front, bleeding defenders. Russian Media seems to be ignoring the attack in order to prevent Russian citizens and soldiers from realizing there is a viable opportunity for change.
