Four senior members of Donald Trump’s entourage have held secret discussions with some of Kyiv’s top political opponents to Volodymyr Zelenskyy, just as Washington aligns with Moscow in seeking to lever the Ukrainian president out of his job.

The senior Trump allies held talks with Ukrainian opposition leader Yulia Tymoshenko, a remorselessly ambitious former prime minister, and senior members of the party of Petro Poroshenko, Zelenskyy’s immediate predecessor as president, according to three Ukrainian parliamentarians and a U.S. Republican foreign policy expert.

        I dont support empires, or hierarchies, or governments of any kind. Russia and the United States are simply two Kaiju, unbothered by what they crush underfoot. But go ahead and believe all those assumptions you made about me.

    Trump is scared Russia will lose before he can stop Zelensky with the aid of Europe. Once it’s only Europe and not just the US backing Ukraine, there will be nothing stopping them any more. No more ‘Don’t use our bombs too far inside Russia’ crap. Every refinery and military base in Russia will have to worry about how far Ukraine can reach every day.
