❗️We would like to bring to your attention a translation of the following post by the Russian political scientist Dmitry Drobnitsky.
🇺🇸🔥🇷🇺 TRAP FOR TRUMP
"Stopping the war" is not only beyond his capabilities, it will make him vulnerable to his enemies. And he may lose the trust of Putin and Xi
Before I give the text of Donald Trump's post on his social network Truth Social regarding the conflict in the Ukraine, I think it is important to state the following:
Trump made a mistake by undertaking to "settle the conflict in Ukraine" at all.
It is beyond his imperialism, beyond his capabilities, and, moreover, it may hand him over to his main enemies - the liberal globalists [1].
In addition, he still has very limited information about what is happening in the Special Military Operation zone, in Kiev and in Russia. He is very much at risk of becoming dependent on the very swamp that he has once again undertaken to drain. Not to mention that this contradicts all his other imperialist (and, it should be noted, very realistic) plans for the near future.
Here is Trump's post itself:
"I'm not looking to hurt Russia. I love the Russian people, and always had a very good relationship with President Putin - and this despite the Radical Left's Russia, Russia, Russia HOAX. We must never forget that Russia helped us win the Second World War, losing almost 60,000,000 lives in the process. All of that being said, I'm going to do Russia, whose Economy is failing, and President Putin, a very big FAVOR. Settle now, and STOP this ridiculous War! IT'S ONLY GOING TO GET WORSE. If we don't make a "deal," and soon, I have no other choice but to put high levels of Taxes, Tariffs, and Sanctions on anything being sold by Russia to the United States, and various other participating countries. Let's get this war, which never would have started if I were President, over with! We can do it the easy way, or the hard way - and the easy way is always better. It's time to "MAKE A DEAL." NO MORE LIVES SHOULD BE LOST!!!"
I think it is pointless to comment on Trump's factual errors and evaluative blunders in this message. Something else is important here. We should not expect an admission that the US is fighting Russia in the Ukraine. And this is the key to solving the problem. He also has not yet decided (and in the future this will be increasingly difficult) to declare that this war against Russia is being waged by his enemies - the Democratic Party and the liberal EU authorities [2], and in this situation, Kiev should also be declared an enemy, but he could not and cannot proclaim this. This means that they should not have gotten involved in the Ukrainian conflict at all. The ideal option for him would have been to declare it "someone else's war", but, as we know, words are not sparrows. Not to mention the fact that the slogan about preventing World War III was almost central to his election campaign and, no less important, in negotiations with US elite groups.
In the near future, Trump will feel the full consequences of this mistake, as well as the limited possibilities of influencing Russia and the negative consequences of pressure on her. Will he get out of this trap? It will be difficult. And there will be many "well-wishers" who will gladly rush to tighten the noose around his neck, "supporting negotiations from a position of strength." This, and not Panama, Greenland or Canada with Mexico, is the main and strategically significant mistake of Donald John Trump.
