Trump is in talks with Russia to end the war

Why do I think you RussianTroll?

I guess because you aren't thinking clearly ?  lol

I don't think so. RT doesn't talk to me... :beer:

For the record: In 2016 NATO told Ukraine that it had no realistic chance of even being considered for NATO membership for at least another 20-25 years......2036 at the very earliest.

Obviously this all changed the moment Putin ordered his troops to invade Ukraine.

Which makes the NGO/MIC corporate involvement such as with contractors like my father circa 2006-2012 even more dodgy, in my humble opinion.  
Just like Eisenhower said, they will expand and create issues just to foment more profit.  NATO is just the public skin.

Where is RussianTroll? He was funny.

Where is RussianTroll? He was funny.

Strangely enough I was just looking at his profile, seems he hasn't visited here for quite some time.

Before he abandoned ATS he disappeared for a few months a couple of times then returned with an avalanche of threads.
Once he had pressing family business that he needed to attend to.
He is a journalist of sorts and possibly may be researching something.

I got on well with RT prior to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, he's clever and quite funny and likes a drink and a laugh - good attributes in my book.
We certainly didn't agree on everything but it never prevented us from getting along with each other and respecting the other's opinion etc.
Sadly that changed somewhat the moment Ukraine was invaded and we developed a sort of love/hate relationship.

Hopefully this senseless war will soon stop and we can get back to talking absolute bollocks to each other and having a laugh doing so.
At least lets hope he returns soon because he certainly generates discussion and at times provides a rather unique perspective.

My understanding from reading his threads in ATS was that he had been drafted in some capacity, unfortunately.

If I remember correctly RT is too old to be drafted.

There was a member of ATS who got called up in the first wave of drafts, Turretless.
He started a couple of threads when he was on leave after basic training and before he got deployed to the war zone.

Sadly we haven't heard anything from him for a long time.
I liked Turretless and enjoyed reading his photo threads of his visits to various parts of Russia.
He was a student who had a bright future ahead of him.
We can but hope that nothing untoward has happened to him in this needless and senseless war.

Senseless indeed.  I hope Trump can help get a treaty signed ASAP . Something Biden never really attempted. Wonder why?

A 'treaty' was never the plan.

Both parties want an absolute win... or people wouldn't be dying.

Fortunately both adversaries are responsive to money...

After that, it's up to "the" bank.
