Summary

Trump is pushing for softer language on Russia’s war in Ukraine, straining G7 unity.

Officials say the U.S. is blocking references to “Russian aggression” and prefers calling it the “Ukraine conflict.”

This shift follows Trump’s peace talks with Putin that excluded Ukraine’s President Zelensky, whom Trump later called a “dictator.”

The change in rhetoric contrasts with Biden-era support for Ukraine and threatens a unified G7 stance.

    Sorry but what the fuck are you talking about. You’re inventing connections between conflicts that aren’t there. Russia and the US don’t particularly care about Palestine. Believing that there’s some kind of exchange where the US is ‘taking’ Palestine because of the conflict in Ukraine is some of the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard. It’s like you think all of geopolitics is the US and Russia sitting around a map of the world and both of them are ten year olds.

      Isreal is financially supported by the US

      Iran is financially supported by Russia

      This has been going on since at least the 80s

      Russia didn’t like the US supporting Ukraine, so they got Iran to get Hamas to start a war to siphon US tax dollars to Isreal, who the US is required to support because of treaties, and divert them from Ukraine ro weaken Ukraine.

      Sorry if you aren’t interested or believe something else, but that’s the geopolitics on display in observable reality
