Few
things can be more secure in politics than Donald Trump, who is trying to
dispel the negative news, creating a bust over another. I think that this is
the best translation of latest US president's comments from Friday on Russia return
to the G-7 group. But this distracting smoke bomb could still inflict
unnecessary harm to Western unity against Russia.
Russia's worst nightmare wanted permission Russia to come back on the negotiating table.
As he often says, his policy towards Russia is tougher than that of Barack
Obama. He agreed to strengthen NATO troops in eastern Europe and to accept
Macedonia in the alliance. Putting down Javelin anti-tank missile systems in
Ukraine, allowing the Pentagon to attack Russian mercenaries in Syria, imposing
sanctions against Vladimir Putin's friends, and evicting Russian spies of
solidarity with the United Kingdom after trying to murder a former double agent
and his daughter on British soil.
It also fights hard in the closed doors to convince Germany and Europe not to
allow the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, which will give Putin more leverage to
influence Poland and other European countries.
Trump's "G8" intervention is nonetheless a grant for Putin's strategy
to divest the United States and Europe. The attack on the US president is an
insult to British Prime Minister Teresa May so early after a failed Kremlin
attempt. Europe must confirm its anti-Russian sanctions, and the new Italian
government is already skeptical. As for Trump Putin's "willingness to be
at the negotiating table," the Russians will treat Trump's unilateral
rebate as a sign of weakness.
At the day of 200 Frankenstein's anniversary, the pure and true personification of
the crisis of personality, I’ll finish with quote of the Mary Shelly’s masterpiece: “When falsehood can look so like the truth, who can assure
themselves of certain happiness?”
