It’s mostly a shift in rhetoric. My point is that normalising the work of embassies is bare minimum for dialogue. We’ll see whether this is circus for western(mostly US) audience or an honest attempt at something workable when actual talks about Ukraine/economic disputes are underway. Big bad orange man is quite the populist after all.
Otherwise, as Daniel Fried, a top former State Department official in both Republican and Democratic Party administrations, told Bloomberg News, lifting sanctions would be better held back as an incentive for Russia to keep to an eventual ceasefire.
So, never lifted or lifted piecemeal while Russia does what’s demanded in full. Yeah, I’m pretty sure even Kremlin libs know better at this point, Mr. Expert.
Overall Bloomberg’s version of sober just seems to be drinking every other day instead of being on an indefinite bender. Libs have their limits…
What’s been undone? As far as I heard they basically agreed on…having talks about Ukraine later, normalising the diplomatic relationship and making presidents meet. Maybe. It’s all declarative at this point.
Is Burr evolving into Carlin? Haven’t watched him in years.
Trump denied.
Kremlin too.
