Trump Implores his 'Friend' Vladimir After Murderous Assault on Kyiv and Cities - Silicon Curtain



Edition No133 | 24-04-2025 - The US is on the verge of exiting the so-called peace process. It’s become ever harder for him to hide the blatant alignment of his administration with Russia’s goal and objectives, Russian strategies and narratives. As we’ve said in, multiple recent episodes, it’s been all carrots for the Kremlin, and all sticks for Zelenskyy.

Withdrawing from the process, will potentially shield Trump from internal and external political accusations, at best, that he favours Russia, and at worst that he is an asset, a willing accomplice to Putin’s crimes. Indeed, much of the US administrations recent statements and actions threaten to normalise and excuse Russian crimes and criminality, as well as enabling them to continue their barbaric assaults on Ukraine. But withdrawing from negotiations which many tout as the best course of action, may mead to something far darker.

directly into Putin's hands. No doubt. Trump and the far right will never change their pro-Putin, anti-Ukraine position, at least in the near future.

It's time for Europe, if they are serious about stopping Russian aggression now and in the future, to mightily step up their game of assistance to Ukraine.
