Poisonous Trumpian Diplomacy

The US has suffered some humiliating diplomatic and political defeats in the past month.

The attempt by Pompeo to trigger UN snap-back sanctions on Iran on September 20th was really a power-play aimed mainly against Russia and China.

US wants to force its own edicts on them. The EU states have also refused to go along with US anti-Iranian temper tantrums.

But it doesn’t really matter what the EU does or doesn’t do.

Let’s not forget that even though the EU says that it is still in the deal, and has refused to toe the US line at the UN, it has up to now succumbed to US pressure and stopped doing business with Iran since 2018. So the EU can afford to snub the US as it has nothing to lose anymore. The EU is having it both ways; staying in the JCPOA while not abiding by it.

The US is doing all this to get the JCPOA annulled.

But there is also another angle to this.

The EU, Russia, China, and many others definitely have Trump fatigue, and want to see him go. So the EU may just resist Pompeo’s demented and illegal dictates, and refuse to succumb to any further sanctions pressure, like it has been doing in order to deny Trump any sort of a diplomatic victory, further embarrass him, and isolate his regime. By doing so, the EU hopes that this will make Trump look weak and erode his chances of winning re-election.

Any US attempts to trigger the snap-back will fail, but will also cause problems for the authority of the UN. The US has no legal right to trigger sanctions since it left the JCPOA in 2018. Yet, if it forces a clearly illegal mandate onto the rest, and succeeds, then what will come next? It may force its own laws and dictates as UN law by citing any absurd reason.

The best option will be for the rest of the UNSC members, as well as Iran, is to stick to their guns and basically ignore US demands as having no legal merit, and call the US bluff.

The US regime is simply trying to intimidate enough people to make an illegal act legal. By ignoring the US, they will call Pompeo’s bluff, and US will be left with a strike three.

Another example of diplomacy-on the-cheap is the recent UAE-zionist deal Trump helped to broker.

This so-called deal is just a pathetic consolation prize over the failed 'Peace Plan' Trump tried to roll out. No one was going to go for it. So Trump has been reduced to squeezing out pointless favors from 2nd rate Gulf state vassals to make himself look good. He hasn't had one single quality foreign policy success yet, and is just trying to make up for it with poor substitutes, like the Kosovo deal.

Trump's presidency has degenerated into running errands for the zionists. This is so incredibly sad.

Along with this, we have the Navalny poisoning, which reeks of fraud, just like the Skripal poisoning in 2018.

By insinuation and innuendo, Russia is being accused of trying to poison Navalny with the novichok nerve agent, again without any credible evidence.

But why would Russia want to do so at this time, against a person who has very little popular support, fail to kill him with a lethal nerve agent, save his life in a hospital, then allow him to be transported to Germany for a diagnosis?

If Russia wanted him dead, there are many more subtle and convincing ways to do it.

And right away, we have the usual suspects demanding the cancellation of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline project, as punishment for Russia poisoning a political dissident.

We can see who stands to gain from this so-called poisoning plot, and it isn’t Russia and Putin.

Let’s not forget that before this latest poisoning drama, Mike Pompeo declared that the US will do everything to stop the Nord Stream 2 project.

Some years earlier, Mike Pompeo told an interviewer that at the CIA, he was taught to lie, cheat, and steal.

Whatever happened to Navalny was either caused by him taking something, or by health problems possibly brought on by diabetes, with which he has had issues with in the past.

But nefarious people in the anti-Russian camp are dressing all this up to look like a poisoning for self-serving political purposes.

It took a week and a half for this poisoning diagnosis to be announced by a German hospital, and only after Navalny’s care was suspiciously taken over by the German army and NATO.

Navalny’s condition was not the result of a poisoning. It looks like a setup to punish Russia for its refusal to support UN sanctions on Iran, for being the first to develop and roll out a working COVID19 vaccine, and for preventing another Maidan scenario in Belarus.

This is a pattern that has been evident for years. Whenever Russia achieves a diplomatic, strategic, or economic victory or an accomplishment of any kind, suddenly some bad incident occurs that is blamed on Russia to make it look bad.

We saw that before the World Cup in March 2018 with the Skripal farce, and we are seeing it now with the Navalny farce.

Recently, Belarus signals intelligence intercepted a voice communication between a Polish individual and an English speaker where details of this Navalny poisoning were discussed, and how this is to be used against Russia.

But none of this nonsense will succeed. The lack of proof, and the refusal of the accusers to cooperate, and provide Russia with any evidence to prove their poisoning hypothesis will turn this entire affair into a nothingburger.

This is all clearly a lie being used against Russia by the US and its lackeys for obvious purposes. This can only fool the Russophobe morons, but has no validity behind it.

The US also has a tradition of snuffing out a failing/failed patsy. Having built them up with lots of PR, pomp, and cash to no avail, they become more useful when hurt or killed, if and when they fail to reach their assigned objectives. Their demise is then used as a political cudgel against whatever government or leader the US regime doesn't like in that country.

This is just a warning for all aspiring US wannabe tools: think about what you are doing, or the US may dispose of you, if you're no longer useful to them. They cannot afford to have a disgruntled ex-patsy walking around out there, talking to someone about their experiences. You will end up shot, poisoned, ran over, or turned into a comatose vegetable.
