Earlier this week, a trade war broke about between the US and Canada. But the EU, a more Canada-aligned ally, appears to have a pretty muted response so far. So, in this video, we’re taking a look at the escalating US-Canada trade war, how it’s pushing Canada towards the EU and how the EU is responding.

Since Trump’s re-election, the relationship between MAGA and the European right wing populist parties has been turbulent.

Ukraine won’t have to take Crimea. Cut the land bridge to mainland Ukraine and cut off the Russian forces in the south with a drive to the sea and Crimea will truly be free to decide its future. Once the south is free Donbas will be a mopping up operation driving out demoralized Russians.

In short:
Yes, but at great cost, as It is extraordinarily overly optimistic to suggest Crimea will be retaken by Ukraine, I don’t think people understand just how dug-in and heavily fortified the peninsula is, not to mention the overwhelming majority of the people living there now are Russians, attempting to retake Crimea will come at a catastrophic cost to both sides and will most likely fail in the end, not to mention the civilian death toll would be substantial

The fall of Kherson was inevitable, it’s geographic location made it a nightmare for Russia to handle because of the Dnieper River as well as the supply problems Russia faced while controlling the land, plus it has been the target for Ukrainian counter-offensives for a while.
