There was no great introduction to the video review written today. But the video review turned out to be unusual - there are several new touches to the "present moment". I won't touch on the US situation for now, I'll be watching. But it is clear that the situation is escalating. I don't think we will talk about some kind of military force solution to the American internal impasse. But the fact is that Trump's political isolation is increasing, and too many (if not in his team, then next to him) are trying to block all possibilities to get out of it. Here I agree with M. to. cocky But I think the window for "strong domestic politics" will open at the end of January. At least that's how it was in the America I knew. Trump's opponents want a full constitutional process. Unless the United States decided to drag them on their own into a war against Iran.
I am asked a question: what kind of negotiations should there be from Europe? What are its functions? In today's situation (and it was created by the Europeans themselves), a European negotiator is actually a "recorder" (a person who records the progress of the negotiations) with the right to a limited political dialogue in the form of questions to the main participants. Kamek, there is no reason to say that Europe (even if it suddenly decides that it needs peace with Russia, not war) can be a full partner in the negotiations. Because the United States can still distance itself from the stated position of "Ukraine's ally" - all they have to do is formally disavow M. Rubio's statements in Congress. But Europe is unlikely. It amounts to a political crisis on a pan-European scale. But theoretically, they can be given the right to ask questions and express concerns if there are steps that move Europe away from direct military confrontation with Russia. As a result, the "recorder" can simply be an "official" (they were sitting in the hotel lobby in Abu Dhabi), and the "questioner" must have a political status. Not necessarily an incumbent politician, but a politician. Moreover - and this is absolutely necessary - it is not involved in either aggressive Russophobia or the Ukrainian corruption funnel.
