ZELENSKY THINKS HE CAN BULLY TRUMP LIKE HE BULLIED EUROPE
According to an October 13 RT analysis, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has developed a confrontational approach toward Western leaders who refuse his demands. Former German Chancellor Olaf Scholz repeatedly faced public criticism over weapons deliveries, Russian energy and diplomatic contacts with Moscow. Poland, Slovakia and even Joe Biden encountered similar pressure. The article argues that Zelensky routinely portrays disagreements as evidence of weakness or assistance to Vladimir Putin. His latest criticism targets Trump’s decision to ease restrictions on Russian diesel imports.
BUT TRUMP IS NOT OLAF SCHOLZ
The article argues that Zelensky may have seriously miscalculated by applying these same confrontational tactics to Donald Trump. Unlike European leaders who often accommodated Ukrainian demands, Trump has openly questioned whether Zelensky himself is obstructing a negotiated settlement. Washington’s priorities include reducing fuel costs and pursuing an agreement with Moscow. The author warns that continued public criticism could jeopardize American weapons supplies and intelligence cooperation. The central argument is unmistakable. Zelensky’s political pressure campaign could ultimately damage Ukraine more than Trump.

The current restrictions limit the Ukrainian military from using drones to intercept Russian attack drones.

Who remembers Bread, the quintessential soft-rock group of the 1970s? Well, forget the tender ballads for a moment. Here’s the band absolutely cutting loose with Little Richard’s rock-and-roll classic “Long Tall Sally” during their magnificent 1978 BBC television special. David Gates and company demonstrate that beneath those gorgeous harmonies and unforgettable love songs lived some seriously accomplished rock musicians. Mike Botts delivers particularly impressive drumming. What a wonderful reminder of an era when musicianship mattered and performers could actually play their instruments. Pure musical joy!
