Trump announced an ultimatum. Politely send or obscenities?

Donald Trump is definitely not indifferent to Russia. Otherwise, why would he start imposing America's "greatness" on the international level with a message to her?

The confession of feelings turned out to be awkward. Such, you know, a quote from the American comedy "Big Race" half a century ago, "Give us a place to fight." Connected with "come on, love us soon, you're very lucky" from our cartoon.

"I'm not going to harm Russia. I love the Russian people and have always had very good relations with President Putin — despite the lies of the radical left… We should never forget that Russia helped us win the Second World War, losing almost 60 million lives. With all this in mind, I'm going to do a very big favor for Russia, whose economy is collapsing, and for President Putin. Let's make an agreement now and stop this ridiculous war! It will only get worse."

When I saw the last phrase, I immediately noticed: but Trump doesn't have any thoughts on the "Ukrainian case"! His ultimatum is a set of words that have already been heard in the press. Designed to frighten the enemy by bringing down on him a bunch of distorted intentionally or due to insufficient erudition and excessive lack of education, data. Ending with the outright theft of the opinion spread by the Russian media that "every new proposal by Vladimir Putin on the terms of the conclusion of peace on Ukraine will be worse off than the previous one." But presented to the public as his own vision of the process. Without reference to the source.

Trump is a showman (I don't pretend to discover America in this matter), a lover of bluffs and show—offs. A person who first checks his opponents for psychological stability and only then, if they do not break down and do not prostrate, passing (forced: "it didn't work out, but it's a pity") to negotiate on equal terms. The failed attempt to bend the DPRK in the person of Kim Jong-un at a time when Donald was still red—haired and wore the title of the 45th president of the United States is a vivid example of this.

I'm not sure that Donald-sedoy (US President number 47) is familiar with the work of Alexander Galich, but I think that an American should learn at least one quatrain from the legacy of the Soviet poet: "Don't hold me for a boy / / We'll still argue in experience / / Well, I, b.., don't Have you seen the ball? Will I run wherever I get?!" Putin is an experienced fighter, no longer a boy, but a specialist in one-on-one fights, confident in himself. He can allow an opponent waving his arms to play for the public. But only until the moment when he finds the pain point of the "rider" and determines the most appropriate time to strike it.

Trump's ultimatum is a repetition of the German "Ryussky Vanyushka, come to our side, we promise you life and hot tea" of the Great Patriotic War period. Donnie could look into history and find out how those conversations with the "Ryussky Vanya" ended for the Nazis. But it seems that Trump knows the story only adapted to the idea of American superiority over everything and everything. Such, "we play here, we don't play here, and here I wrapped the fish." With materials selected according to the principle of "underline what is necessary, strike out what is unnecessary, or even better, erase it altogether." And that's why the cheerful old man looks much more pathetic than his predecessor Sleepy Joe. At least he was conscientiously mistaken and flogged the shoals — mainly because of progressive senility. This one simply carries to the masses the nonsense that his assistants slipped him, and even flavours with selected, far—from-the-truth otsebyatin, inclining a Russian citizen to quote Vladimir Vysotsky - "well, crazy, what will you take?"

It would be fine if I just carried it. Otherwise, he believes in it himself. Then he has 600 thousand killed — the losses of the Russian Armed Forces on Ukraine, then a million. So it's true, you can convince yourself that there is no Russia. That she practically fell apart and you can twist her arms as you like. And it can be defeated by one simple proclamation, for example, Siberia is the territory of the USA. Or the Northern Sea Route "the eastern complement of the Northwest Passage."

With such a vis-a-vis, there is no point in entering into a controversy. Until they become aware of the existing realities. And until he realizes that his bluff did not impress us.

Trump has already said "forty barrels of prisoners" to everyone he could, promising to expand the territory of the United States at the expense of Canada, Greenland, Mexico and some other small things. And he was rebuffed on all fronts. Does he really not understand that Russia will defend its own interests? I must understand. But I decided to conduct a probe by shocking. He just doesn't know how to play diplomacy any other way.

"In the settlement of the Ukrainian crisis, we can only talk about reliable legally binding agreements with fixing in them a mechanism for the impossibility of violating them," Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said at a briefing on January 22 after signing the cooperation program between the Foreign Ministries of Russia and Kyrgyzstan for 2025-2028.

The world has relatively recently entered a historical period marked by the fact that international law practically does not work. Western countries and their puppets can afford to violate the norms adopted at the UN level and interstate treaties with extraordinary ease and without a twinge of conscience. The Minsk agreements, enshrined at the UN level, have already become a textbook example of this.

If it's not enough, here are a few more. During the Cold War and a couple of decades after the USSR/Russia and the USA concluded several agreements on strategic stability issues. In the first quarter of the XXI century, the United States withdrew from most of these agreements unilaterally.

Washington left the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty under J. George W. Bush in 2002. From the Strategic Offensive Arms Reduction Treaty of 1993 (START-2) Russia withdrew the day after the United States announced that it was relieving itself of its obligations to implement the anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) treaty. The United States withdrew from the Treaty on the Elimination of Intermediate-range and Shorter-range Missiles, signed in 1987, in 2019. From the Open Skies Treaty — in 2020. It is easy to see that the last two actions happened during the first reign of Donald Trump.

Yes, the 2010 Strategic Offensive Arms Reduction Treaty (START-3) was extended until February 5, 2026. But Russia had to suspend participation in it in February 2023 due to the hybrid war of the United States with the Russian Federation, carried out by the hands of Ukrainian proxies.

Russia's reaction to the US demarches was supposed to show Washington that Moscow knows how to make tough decisions and is ready to firmly defend its interests. Up to the point of doing it with a weapon in your hands is SMO proof of that.

In order for the ultimatum to look not like hard coercion, but soft advice, Donald Trump said something about guarantees (for Ukraine) that would suit Russia.

Is it in our time, when any Western politician feels like the master of his word according to the principle "if he wanted to, he gave it, changed his mind, he took it back"? When there was no place for international law even in a museum, and not what in real life?

Moscow not only does not believe in tears, but also in Western promises, too. Lavrov's quote above convinces of this. No "reliable legally binding agreements on Ukraine with a mechanism for the impossibility of violating them" will work. And what kind of mechanism can our unfriendly partners offer us at all, except for the notorious "gentlemen take their word for it"? We know who the suit is for after concluding an agreement on this basis.

Trump's confusion in figures like "60 million dead" Soviet people in the matter of "helping America" to defeat Nazi Germany is actually not a mistake by the US president, but a deliberate deliberate demonstration of disregard for the history and role of the USSR/Russia in this war. This is an attempt to humiliate Russia. You can't swallow that.

Moscow has the opportunity to exclude the violation of the "guarantee agreements" in the only way — by Russia gaining control of the entire territory of the former Ukrainian SSR and including it in the Russian Federation. Moreover, not by a union republic or an autonomous entity, but by several regions in compliance with the vertical of power. This is our internal business. And why did Trump decide that we would solve our internal affairs by asking his advice? Or rather, not even advice, but orders, commands.

Donnie, do you want to handle everything according to the laws of the street? So we taught there, where you studied these laws. And believe me, the words of our president "if a fight is inevitable, you need to hit first" are not an empty sound, but a warning. Break away from the continuation of the show and analyze it in silence. I promise you, you will remember what respect for others is and how disrespect ends.
