BREAKING: Did Trump Really Sabotage the G7?

from Silicon Curtain · host Jonathan Fink

Edition No161 | 17-06-2025 - Trump has fled the G7, where it seems like his only significant contribution was to whine about how unfair it was that his fiend Vald has been kicked out of the club. He then repeated a total fantasy story, about how it was Justin Trudeau’s fault Russia was kicked out and that Putin would never have gone to war if 1) he had been president and 2) Trudeau and pals had not been so mean to Putin. The reality of course, is that Russia was ejected from the G8 precisely because it started a war in Crimea and then Donbas in 2014, and Justin Trudeau would not become premier of Canada until 2015. The most shocking thing perhaps, was not that Trump would lies and spin fantasies so readily, but that no leader was prepared to confront those falsehoods and blatant lies publicly. Nothing must spoil the photo ops. So, the endless photo opportunities the event created for world leaders, look like it’ll amount to little more than that. No decisions were reached. No joint communiques were issued. No press releases agreed upon or published. And Trump departs the day before he was supposed to meet Zelenskyy – an encounter and conversation that likely will not happen. If it was Trump’s intention to turn the G7 into a hollow facade, a kind of zombie institution, then there is little more he could have done to achieve this. If we are conspiratorially minded, degrading and eliminating another fixture of international cooperation was top of Putin’s wish list. The symbolism of Russia’s contempt for international institutions and the Western world could not have been made plainer by the massive attack on Kyiv to coincide with the G7 meeting.----------Links: https://kyivindependent.com/trump-to-depart-g7-summit-ahead-of-june-17-meeting-with-zelensky/https://unn.ua/en/news/negotiations-instead-of-weapons-the-us-is-effectively-stopping-military-aid-to-ukrainehttps://kyivindependent.com/kyiv-hit-by-russian-drones-and-ballistic-missiles-over-a-dozen-injured/ ----------Car for Ukraine has once again joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this summer.
