WTF is going on?: https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/us-military-officers-pay-surprise-visit-belarus-observe-war-games-with-russia-2025-09-15/

>>64265244 (OP)
Gotta fraternise with your future allies somehow.

We aren't at war with Belarus, and considering it was two guys of unspecified rank that showed up alongside the Turkish and Hungarian delegation, it may not even be officially sanctioned. It could be a pair of liaison officers based in Hungary for Saber Guardian that were told informally by their Hungarian counterparts that they had two empty seats on the plane, wanna come? Stranger things have happened.

Luka's sons live in the west and he loves those two boys.

Say what you want about him, but he's a good dad.

>why is the most pro-Russian president in 80 years doing stuff with Russian and her allies
Gee I dunno. Did USA supporting Russia in the UN not tip you off that Trump is kompromat and Russia and Belarus can do whatever they want and Trump will just get an extra inch down his gullet as long as Putin smiles at him?

Nixon turning in his grave so fast you could connect him to a generator and power the continental United States.

>>64265244 (OP)
How is any of this surprising to you?
>>64265262
I mean Trump is doing a Nixon inverse here.
Nixon buddied up with the Chinese against the Soviets and Trump is doing the reverse here. Granted China certainly brought a lot more to the table as a potential ally than the Russians do today.

>>64265273
I doubt he would care that much. Did US troops mald at the Russians whenever they encountered Kornets in Iraq? Probably not.

>>64265273
They don’t care. They will more than happily embrace Americans as their new brothers if it helps them against their current enemy.
Russia‘s relationship with North Korea is a perfect example of how flexible such things are. In a span of two decades they went from mocking North Korea to sanctions against North Korea to North Koreans are our greatest brothers of all time.

>>64265288
nah see, that's the difference, zignog. US never rolled out the red carpet for rusnig generals to watch their wargames while americans were still getting popped by kornets. they killed the opfor and moved on. only in your clown empire do your "allies" get to barbecue your boys with himars one day and then sit front row at the parade the next, that's being a disposable pet lmao

>>64265281
Trump is buddying with Russia AGAINST THE CHINESE?!?!?
If you interpret this in the most charitably forward thinking way possible, Trump is setting the stage for a land grab in Russia, and it will be a race to extract the most money, land and resources possible before the borders between China and Novo-USivskyi meet.

But in the meanwhile Russia is increasing ties with China, not decreasing them. They most certainly wouldn't be able to harm China anyways, not even economically.

>>64265281
It's not really the inverse. If it is, he's fucking terrible at it. Russia and China are closer than they've been. Only time they were closer was pre-split. USA could remove Russia from the geopolitical landscape by supporting Ukraine. China can't land grab against a state with nukes. But if we defeated Russia so comprehensively they couldn't try this for a century, we'd be fine. But instead he does everything he can to please Putin, right down to blaming Ukraine for the invasion.

>>64265281
>Nixon buddied up with the Chinese against the Soviets and Trump is doing the reverse here
And Nixon was retarded. Chinks were already not friends with USSR and instead Nixon fed the Chinks and made them the enemy in the future.

>>64265281
>Nixon buddied up with the Chinese against the Soviets and Trump is doing the reverse here

Shame it will never happen. See: Putin's actions so far, and how much China is offering to Russia.

>>64265307
Senpai...the ziggers were invited to observe exercises as late as 2015. It wasn't until 2022 that people finally stopped rolling out the red carpet for them.

>>64265281
Why the fuck do people still buy into the "Russia as a potential ally against China" meme?
The more you placate Russians nowadays, the bolder they are when acting against us.

>>64265338
what does that have to do with kornets in iraq, baka retard?

>>64265307
>US never rolled out the red carpet for rusnig generals
No, the red carped only comes out for Putin

>>64265341
>Why the fuck do people still buy into the "Russia as a potential ally against China" meme?
Mostly racism and distance to Russia.
>Russians are white (mostly)
>Russians are Christians (mostly)
>Russians had conflicts with China
>Russians are more conservative/warlike than modern Europeans
>Russia and the US used to be allies
If you're working in some cozy think tank in DC then theoretically Russia seems like a natural ally for the US. Also every US president since Clinton is somehow convinced that they're the guy who can talk to Putin and figure things out.

>>64265353
lol exactly. ukraine keeps getting himars and ammo shipments while rusnigs get a pat on the back and ego strokes from trump on truthsocial. talk about being the world’s favorite punching bag lmao

its almost like this has always been a thing

>>64265281
>I mean Trump is doing a Nixon inverse here.
It was fucking retarded when Nixon did it, and China did have far more to offer to the US back then than the current incarnation of the Vatnig Union does now.

>>64265357
>Also every US president since Clinton is somehow convinced that they're the guy who can talk to Putin and figure things out.
Yet they still kep them at arms length and didnt let them join NATO. Didnt conault thm on the yugoslav wars etc. All previous US presidents still distrusted Russia. Even Bush, under whom relations were probably at their high water mark, only used some limited Russian bases and refused Russian cooperation in Afghanitan.

>>64265383
>Didnt conault thm on the yugoslav wars etc
Frankly consulting Yeltsin's Russia on anything was pintless since that country was entirely surviving on US aid.

Do you get your history lessons from TikTok or are you simply incapable of understanding the usual, basic membership requirements and procedures for submitting a formal application, instead expecting an invitation, fast track joining and preferential treatment because you are le big mighty bear?

In the future I fully expect you culture war brained retards to praise the orange skidmark for being so tough on Russia and humiliating them because he didn't even show them all the cum he sucked out of Putin's tip before swallowing while looking him in the eye.

>>64265429
Tbh Obamur/Hillary reset button was a moment far worse. But it was a single moment (did leave Georgia out to dry tho) and I'll argue it enabled Crimea and February 2022. But Trump keeps trying to top that, over and over again.

>>64265440
why couldn't we just let Russia die?
>saved the russian empire
>saved the soviet union
>saved the russian federation
just let them bite the dust this time. was it because of nuke?

>>64265431
I know what you meant but there are so many ethnicities in Russia and it is only due to centralisation that they're not more populous (as in due to lack of funds and modernisation their population growth is slow compared to Muscovites). I'm just funposting.

>>64265440
>But Trump keeps trying to top that, over and over again.
It makes sense. The only reason he wants a peace prize is because Obama got one. So he's going to one up him at every opportunity.

>>64265442
This latest gesture of goodwill towards the snow apes is because boomers had a lifetime diet of how strong the bear is and they don't want to confront the image that is alive only in their heads.

american are saying he is cool. why even bother looking for that from a russian dog?
russia can't give the west anything of value, not even oil and gas

>>64265244 (OP)
Why wouldn't you want to observe your adversaries' military maneuvers? What could you possibly lose by learning more information?

>>64265463
>why even bother looking for that from a russian dog?
Because Putin is what Trump actually aspires to be, like I said, strongman archetype, coupled with Trump being weak to flattery and him and his staff being kinda tarded because they're being played like fiddles.

But hey, as long as Trump can also pretend he is "president of peace" which again, attatched to his ego it does a lot for him.

>>64265341
its just cope by red caps to deal with the cognitive dissonance that they simp for an unironic russian asset.he is too stupid to be an actual agent but there is practically no difference when it comes to his behavior

east euros really got the raw end of the stick when after decades of being the most pro-american region in the world and following them through every sandbox, to serving vatniks military on a silver plate to westerners to decimate, now they are getting back stabbed every four years by indecisive cowards and turncoats. while american "leadership" themselves fluctuate between shitting their pants at the sight of le mighty aids bear, because they have a very red alert 2 image in their heads concerning vatniks, to openly simping for them

>>64265467
It's not reflective of reality.

Especially in the Soviet times the Russians loved to invite Americans over for air shows. They would have the same planes flying doughnuts to make it seem like they had many more times the bombers/interceptors/fighters than they really did.

These aren't exercises. It's false pageantry for internal and external audiences.

trump isn't a russian asset, he just owes a few favors to russian oligarchs who bailed him out of bankruptcy by buying overpriced nyc real estate nobody else wanted

>>64265463
Putin is his personal idol and role model. he made "russia great again" much like he wants to maga

>>64265467

Russian military maneuvers are essentially a stage play put on for Russia and her allies or countries Russia wants to impress.

>>64265442
nook is the most latest cope. most notorious example however was before any nook-ooking really took place. Burgers have this really bizarre simp complex when it comes to vatniks. And this aint anything new, trump is just the most disgusting expression of it from recent memory. Back in the 90s Bush senior travelled to kyiv to plead to the ukranian parliament NOT to dissolve the fucking vatnik union. clinton thought all you need to do is make lots of money with them, bush jr looked into putins eyes and found love or something etc etc etc

so now europe is faced with the same dilemma germans were faced with 80 years ago. as long as US exists it is the ultimate life insurance to the rotting zombie empire. Its kind of ironic that out of the big west euros its Merz, chancellor of germans, that is taking this question seriously. while others are safely tucked away behind others land they are willing to sacrifice to buy one more day of comfort

Shut the fuck up with your revisionist history. Europe spent trillions of dollars on Russian Oil and Gas while they kneecapped their own energy industry, and they continued to do so after Putin took Crimea. He invaded Ukraine with an army paid for by Europe, and for the first three years of the war, Europe spent more money on Russia than Ukraine.

Calling America out because we finally got sick of coddling the technocrats in Brussels who fuck everyone over but themselves, screwing regular Europeans the hardest is retarded and gay.

>>64265501
>there is literally 0 harm in going
If you had a president with a hard stance on Russia sure. No harm done. But with Trump's overt attempts to appease Putin it casts a bad image on US reliability towards its central and eastern Euro partners when US officers are present at maneuvers like that.

>>64265484
well it really does not matter if he ain't an asset when he is behaving exactly what and asset or even agent would unironically do. FFS americans capitulated in alaska and rolled out the red carpet for a deranged tyrant. American soldiers were standing in honor and kneeling in front of the tzar. while air force held a mini parade flyover to welcome the mighty manlet

of course vatniks are cockier then ever and now its impossible for internally for anybody to ack monke and end his imperial chimp out. since he has now a invincibility aura of monke the great, the tzar that made US kneel in submission

on a wider, ideological dimension, the red hats are emulating putinism in america with their own spin on it. on a personal level trump thinks putin is his friend and also role model on how a strong dictator should be. which he wants to be as the first king of USA

Nah, that's easy enough to detect when it becomes real - when they bring out the bloodbags for transfusion for actual casualties. They have short shelf lives and if you don't plan to use them you leave them at the hospitals.

It was taken in August 1939. Germany hadn't invaded Poland yet and arguably the US didn't care about what Germany was doing until 1941.

it's reverse-lookism/reverse-racism: retards see somewhat white and somewhat european looking russians and incorrectly infer that they are the same as actual Europeans and white Christians, not knowing the realities on the ground of the culture and people

>>64265357
The difficulty in understanding the Russian is that we do not take cognizance of the fact that he is not a European, but an Asiatic, and therefore thinks deviously. We can no more understand a Russian than a Chinaman or a Japanese, and from what I have seen of them, I have no particular desire to understand them, except to ascertain how much lead or iron it takes to kill them. In addition to his other Asiatic characteristics, the Russian has no regard for human life and is an all-out son of a bitch, barbarian, and chronic drunk.

>>64265633
I don't think Bush was entirely wrong.
Early Putin was still a serious westaboo. It seems he wanted the Saudi or Franco treatment. The US would turn a blind eye to his authoritarian regime, give him a limited sphere of influence and welcome him as an ally. The sphere of influence bit is where eventually clashed and Putin got salty.

>>64265667
Our automotive industry problems went far deeper than just an poor engine. Every part of production was shit resulting in low-quality cars that were garbage in every aspect - interior, exterior, under the hood, German, Sweedish, and Japanese cars blew them out of the water.

Yeah well I live in a city, as does 60% of the human race, so a truck is no good to me. But I do own a van, which for smaller parking space offers more transport capacity. Trucks arent even the best at what they are supposed to be good at, hauling stuff and carrying tools. Vans have them beat easy in cubic capacity. Its like you lot are ll using technicals while we are at least using APCs.

The Bongs had some great engines. The Rover V8 for example is still considered one of the best engines ever made.

>Jeep is also Indian-owned as of several months ago
The fate of every western company. Bought out the Pajeets or Changs. If it doesn't get bought up it gets a Pajeet CEO.

Bong industry right there.

Do people even need MRAPs any more? It's kinda a niche GWOT era vehicle.

Modern ones are like an APC+

The Australian one that looks like a pig has rave reviews from Ukrainians.

>Vans have them beat easy in cubic capacity
Right. Trucks are made for towing heavy loads.

>>64265772
I remember that one. Some Aussie got really sad when one of them got lost in Ukraine since it was the first combat loss ever for them.
I believe the Russians even kept reusing it constantly in propaganda vids to show destroyed western equipment.

>Muh good feeling to drive
A zippy lighter BMW Sedan with a tuned engine feels good to drive. Trucks are utility items.

>>64265776
Tractors beat them at that. Trucks are just shitty jack of all trades master of none.

>>64265787
A tuned civic is even better but I don't want one.

>>64265789
But tractors are slow.

Okay my turn

What're you? In a hurry or something?
You're towing a heavy load.

>>64265256
She we aren't at war, but what exactly could a Russian puppet state show that would interest US officers?

>>64265800
Must not be that heavy a load then. Could have fitted it in a van.

Modern "muscle cars" are somewhat popular in postsoviet countries though. For the same crowd that otherwise would be in the market for bmw or lexus, but those don't seem exotic, eye-catching and unique enough for them. Of course those aren't as common as more "conventional" luxury brands, but not one-off imports by total weirdos either.

it's a good reminder for the vassals that their tributes are low.

US officers? New and innovative methods of sodomy. The official US flag is the rainbow flag after all. I see it at every embassy. Russo-American exchange of more than just information, if you know what I mean.

You also see them in western Europe occasionally. Even US trucks pop up sometimes. But you always see them in places where it makes no sense to own a truck like a city.

Do you seriously think Trump believes he will ever die? He is such a delusional narcissist that he most likely legitimately believes he is immortal.

>They lost their semi-monopoly once other countries rebuilt.
They also gave up a lot of their manufacturing abilities specifically to help rebuild, going so far as to pack up and ship entire factories and shipyards overseas.
I'm not gonna say it was a completely altruistic endeavor, because it also let the US become the wealthiest nation in the world by supplying said factories and controlling world trade etc, but it's important to note that the US quite literally gave entire shipyards away to help places like Japan rebuild, then later gave all the jobs manufacturing parts for said factories and shipyards away too because beam counters and CEOs want to make line go up, and now finally are realizing "hey wait maybe we shouldn't have given up 99% of domestic manufacturing and shipbuilding..."

Isn't it time there is a Nobel Prize for Defense of the Western World(tm)? Like, someone who has contributed ti defend the west and all these sorry liberal asses at Stockholm? We all know Obommer got the prize for being black, not sure why Drumpff still cares for a recognition which has been reduced to a DEI policy.

Why did Burgers vote a Russian asset into the WH despite knowing full well he was a Russian asset? Pls explain to this dumb Yuropoor.

>>64266043

He's probably not a Russian asset, but he does behave like one.

You euroamericans are funny people when it comes to collecive threats, in LATAM where I come from we have as many divides as yo at politics and social issues, but when it comes to fighting an external threat such as a foreign country trying to steal our lands everyone from the reddest tankie to the most churchgoing grandma align themselves and declare to be ready to kill any invading army with their bare hands if needs be. You have grown soft on the End of History and you all should be ashamed, embargoing Russia and its allies and declaring a no fly zone is what you should do with all your supposedly advanced weapons, what's the point of technological supremacy if you lack the balls to use them to enforce your hegemony? Spengler was right, all you think of is Money, but you forget a people's existence is not just how much imaginary jewgold you have at your account.

>>64266089
>what's the point of technological supremacy if you lack the balls to use them to enforce your hegemony?
the most frustrating thing about this whole war. the US, the EU collectively or any combination of leading NATO powers could've forced it to end at any time but they've all chosen not to because they're pussies

Ford got sued by Dodge and the courts ruled that a corporation must act only in the interest of it's shareholders and not it's employees or customers.

>>64266146
>interest of it's shareholders
That happened back when Ford was alive.

The current definition of "fiduciary duty" sells out tomorrow for today.
