Back in 2014, Russia was expelled from the group of the world’s strongest powers, when it was the G8 at the time. This was after the country’s annexation of Crimea from Ukraine.

Trump says Ukraine war wouldn’t have happened if Russia was still part of G7
(www.thelondoneconomic.com)
I'm almost relieved that Europe is cutting ties to USA now. Not because of Trump, but because half the population failed to prevent him from becoming president. But now there is no more purchasing of USA weapons and IT services, I wonder how Trump figures that helps reduce military cost for USA?
This shit has been brewing since George W Bush was president, and gave false intelligence to allies, and then stated if you aren't with us you are against us. The Republicans have been sociopathic for decades, and Americans keep voting for it!
Seems it was USA all along who was against Europe, freedom and democracy.
Good riddance! 🖕🖕🖕
Trump is a symptom, not the cause.
Absolutely.
Shame that many Americans are just too ignorant to realize what USA is losing right now, and how their literal crisis agent of a president now does damage to diplomatic and economic relations with Europe that will simply never heal. All the respect, all the soft power, all the things that were just status quo that nobody wanted to challenge out of convenience - all out the window.
When I grew up I was a huge fan of USA. Americans were cool, they landed on the moon, made the best movies and in the 70's they made computers.
But the past 30 years, I realized their talk of freedom was hollow. And after that I soon realized that American society had become sociopathic.
Trump is the perfect image of American society. Whenever an American exclaims "this is not who we are". I kind of get angry with them, because YES! this is EXACTLY who you are! And it's been brewing for 50 years, and nobody (President or party line) since Carter tried to stop it.
I've been warning about it for 20 years now, and all that time I could only see it play out and getting worse and worse.
Of course Republicans are the main villains, but Democrats have actually been accomplishes a big part of the way.
Anyone who claims to have any doubt who Taco McBonespurs works for is either delusional or a liar.
This just makes Putin look petty and childish.
They all look petty and childish but they don't give a shit.
Yankee go home.
Trump says a lot of things, and majority of them are moronic nonsense. The war would have happened sooner or later, as long as Ukraine is free and independent, the Russians cannot sleep well as long as they know that Ukraine is not theirs slave.
Also, they were suspended because of the occupation of Crimea, so, basically, the war had already begun at that time.
Felon rapist says what?
Cheeto opens his mouth and out comes bullshit
I'm surprised!
