Trump Threatens to Blow Apart Entire G7 to Protect Putin
www.thedailybeast.com
Donald Trump, who recently re-established ties with the Kremlin, doesn’t want Russia to foot the blame for its war anymore.

Summary

Trump is pushing for softer language on Russia’s war in Ukraine, straining G7 unity.

Officials say the U.S. is blocking references to “Russian aggression” and prefers calling it the “Ukraine conflict.”

This shift follows Trump’s peace talks with Putin that excluded Ukraine’s President Zelensky, whom Trump later called a “dictator.”

The change in rhetoric contrasts with Biden-era support for Ukraine and threatens a unified G7 stance.

    The fuck is G7 anyway, but the face of global capitalism?

    Just doublechecking my premises, there’s this from Investopedia:

    The Group of Seven is an intergovernmental organization made up of the world’s largest developed economies: France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. Government leaders of these countries meet periodically to address international economic and monetary issues, with each member taking over the presidency on a rotating basis…

    Yeah, fuck 'em, but all is forgiven if G7 has the balls to expel America.
