    There is no rift, it all bullshit. NATO is the west

    When you think your opponent is a monolith, it just means you don’t understand your opponent.

    Russia’s Duganist foreign policy relies on the reality of a rift within nato. Part of the reason that they put so much renewed effort into their trumpist coup is to stoke that rift after their strategic failure in ukraine - bringing nato nations closer than at any point since 1990

    Russia’s influence among US kleptocrats and fascists is if anything understated. The regime’s “accomplishments” are just a wishlist of russian foreign policy goals.

    Trump has long been a russian asset and his business empire was just a front for russian mob money. His earliest advisors were almost entirely known russian agents. Destablising greenland and canada is russia attacking potential NW passage rivals, and greenland helps distance the us and eu. The first trump regime completely dismantled the state dept. and it’s still basically non-functional. Propaganda organs like VoA and USAID, cybersecurity too. Any institutions the empire uses to expand influence or defend itself. Massive self defeating tarriffs on allies and client states weaken alliances and increase pressure on the citizen body.

      Yeah Russia and USA jerk each other off under the table from time to time, depending on the political climate. I still think this so-called “rift” is subterfuge. The proxy war against Russia continues.
