“If Trump really had been left in the dark, he wouldn’t remain silent. But, of course, he has to deny any foreknowledge publicly and vs the Russians. He needs plausible deniability, which is why it was done that way. I understand his position: he needs some leverage to push Russia towards a more conciliatory line. He fears that without results, the Senate will vote additional sanctions, which would compromise his policy towards Russia.”
“If Trump wasn’t informed about the attack, he has two choices.
1. Walk away from Europe’s problem and stop ALL support for Ukraine.
or
2. Resign.”
“Ukraine does nothing on its own; it doesn’t have the means for surveillance or targeting. The CIA and MI6 love playing these games. ”
