More demonstration for reinstating Fedorov.
Evident though that he said it in this context is surprising as surely a āpoliticalā fault.
I think heās got himself in a corner, there was that G7 meeting a month ago where he waltzes in, late, declaring āIām the bossā. Something changed there, Macron and others had him in a corner.
My reading is he, Trump, needed something for the Gulf situation and that was granted for support for Ukraine.
Unfortunately this will take time due to the mess Trump has created.

With Ukraineās fortunes taking a turn for the better, and Russia struggling, their allegiances are changing. At least for the moment.

First public dissent of a power from the close Russian galaxy that I can remember of. Putin must be seething.
