The Economic Impact of Brexit
Other
Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have ยฃ40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

That Trump accepts a Kremlin capitulation demand for Ukraine as "his" plan clarifies that he is irrelevant in foreign policy.
Europe & Ukraine should ignore Trump (the US) in their dealing with Russia:
What Ukraine needs is more arms & money!

Putin versucht jetzt mithilfe der USA politisch zu erreichen, woran er militรคrisch gescheitert ist. Wir Europรคer sind doch aber keine Kleinkinder, die freudig zustimmen und bezahlen, wenn Putin und Trump sich zu unseren Lasten einigen wollen und Frieden in Europa gefรคhrden.

Trump's ultimatum to Ukraine to accept Kirill Dmitriev's capitulation plan makes it obvious that Trump works for Putin, whether erxtorgted or remunerated.
Former US allies must draw all the necessary conclusions asap: /1

Trumpโs world view: cynical, self-interested and money-grabbing
Latest Ukraine peace plan presented by the US would be a capitulation to Moscow
We know enough about Trump:
1. He embraces no values but money, power & vanity.
2. Either you need to threat him effectively (China) or bribe him. $200k might be enough (Switzerland or Apple).
3. Countries with values need to gang up & pressure him.

The Murky Plan That Ensures a Future War
Who will benefit from the White Houseโs 28-point proposal for Ukraine?
For a decade, Russia has been seeking to divide Europe and America, to undermine NATO and weaken the transatlantic alliance. This peace plan, if accepted, will achieve that goal.

Since the US under Trump is either supporting Russia's aggression in Ukraine or opposing all sensible multilateral cooperation, Trump's absence from COP30 in Brazil & G20 in South Africa is probably beneficial.

1) Start the worst European war since 1945 and commit every imaginable war crime
2) Decide how you want to be rewarded for your aggression
3) Leak the list of your desiderata to the US press
4) Wait for the US president to enforce your wish list on your victim.

I have persistently argued that Trump is Putin's obedient servant and that all his objections about Putin have just been insubstantial statements to delude his base that he is not Putin's obedient servant.
I am afraid that I have been right all along:
Trump serves Putin.

Why don't some Americans understand that Trump is Putin's puppet:
1. He is to meet Ukraine's president Zelensky.
2. Before he calls Putin for 2 1/2 hours & receives his instructions.
3. He repeats Putin's instructions: No tomahawks for you, Ukraine!
Putin dictates Trump's policy.

In no way does Trump behave like an ally of Europe, Japan, South Korea or Canada, but as an enemy launching unwarranted trade wars with huge tariffs.
Trump's only real ally appears to be Russia, on which he has imposed neither tariffs nor sanctions.

A few thoughts on Russia's war against Ukraine:
1. Trump does whatever he can to support Putin. His problem is that most republicans support Ukraine, so he gives them an opportunity to cheat themselves to claim that Trump supports Ukraine. /1

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.
