I wonder what favor he’s talking about … buying Russian energy? Releasing the billions in frozen assets? nostr:note1eqa6hvkrnvec2m4p5cgqc6zze6jauhx7equ7vdhrvjxuefxxcf8qxev46g

Not blowing up anymore Nordstream pipelines?

I think it's just a vailed threat. i.e. come to an agreement and I'll do you a favor by not crushing you.

Crushing how though? What do we import from Russia? Can’t be much … their assets are already frozen.

No clue. Mostly bluster I would assume. This is how he makes deals.

Favor is to hold out hand and make peace the easy way.

Vs what? How can we hurt that country any more than we have? Export oil to Europe and cut Putin out of that income stream? Maybe …

> The post comes a day after Trump criticized Putin for continuing the war effort despite reports that more than 700,000 Russians have been killed or wounded in the fighting, which has also caused Russia’s economy to plummet with inflation edging towards 10%.

>“He can’t be thrilled,” Trump said. “He’s not doing so well. I mean, he’s grinding it out … it’s not making him look very good.”

>“I think he’s destroying Russia by not making a deal,” he added.

I think the "FAVOR" is extending the olive branch and changing U.S. policy on this, allowing Russia to cut it's losses.

I also read somewhere on Nostr yesterday that the US was stopping shipments of arms to Ukraine.
