Germany freezes Nord Stream 2 gas project as Ukraine crisis deepens

Реакция России:

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has issued an order to halt the process of certifying the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline. Well. Welcome to the brave new world where Europeans are very soon going to pay €2.000 for 1.000 cubic meters of natural gas!

Стабильный гений о нестабильном гении

В комментарии сейчас регулярно приходят арбатчики, которым нет никакого дела до Украины, с комментариями о том, что "при Трампе такого не было".

Я еще раз подчеркну, что этим людям Украина совершенно безразлична, поэтому ввиду реальной ситуации в Украине, вступать с этими идиотами в дискуссии не хочется. Но сделаю исключение и приведу подборку высказываний Трампа и трампистов на тему Украины. Сегодняшних высказываний.

(Все ссылки уже запостил rsokolov, так что посмотрите его записи тоже.)

Начну с самого предводителя. Сегодняшнее интервью:

BUCK: Mr. President, in the last 24 hours we know Russia has said that they are recognizing two breakaway regions of Ukraine, and now this White House is stating that this is an “invasion.” That’s a strong word. What went wrong here? What has the current occupant of the Oval Office done that he could have done differently?

PRESIDENT TRUMP: Well, what went wrong was a rigged election and what went wrong is a candidate that shouldn’t be there and a man that has no concept of what he’s doing. I went in yesterday and there was a television screen, and I said, “This is genius.” Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine — of Ukraine. Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that’s wonderful.

So, Putin is now saying, “It’s independent,” a large section of Ukraine. I said, “How smart is that?” And he’s gonna go in and be a peacekeeper. That’s strongest peace force… We could use that on our southern border. That’s the strongest peace force I’ve ever seen. There were more army tanks than I’ve ever seen. They’re gonna keep peace all right. No, but think of it. Here’s a guy who’s very savvy… I know him very well. Very, very well.

By the way, this never would have happened with us. Had I been in office, not even thinkable. This would never have happened. But here’s a guy that says, you know, “I’m gonna declare a big portion of Ukraine independent,” he used the word “independent,” “and we’re gonna go out and we’re gonna go in and we’re gonna help keep peace.” You gotta say that’s pretty savvy. And you know what the response was from Biden? There was no response. They didn’t have one for that. No, it’s very sad. Very sad.

Если кто-то хочет послушать, как Трамп это говорит, то послушайте.

Помимо всего прочего, что можно сказать об этом словесном поносе Трампа... How stupid is that? Jesus Christ, the guy is a fucking idiot.

Теперь апостолы. Начнем с Карлсона:

Tucker: It may be worth asking yourself… why do I hate Putin.. Has Putin ever called me a racist? Has he threatened to get me fired for disagreeing with him? pic.twitter.com/0jlXfS0PYy

Продолжим Candace Owens. Кстати, когда я не так давно назвал Owens печально известной, арбатчиков это развесилило.

I suggest every American who wants to know what’s *actually* going on in Russia and Ukraine, read this transcript of Putin’s address. As I’ve said for month— NATO (under direction from the United States) is violating previous agreements and expanding eastward. WE are at fault. https://t.co/NDmou8I36H

Я на днях с осуждением написал о позиции progressives. В частности, Омар и Сандерс. Но, to be fair, их позиция несопоставима с позицией трампистов. Сандерс со своим сегодняшним заявлением вообще молодцом выглядит:

Vladimir Putin’s latest invasion of Ukraine is an indefensible violation of international law, regardless of whatever false pretext he offers. There has always been a diplomatic solution to this situation. Tragically, Putin appears intent on rejecting it. pic.twitter.com/PUNIJSZMEk
