Friends, who knows what will happen next in the continuing hot spots between Washington/NATO and Russia? Robert Parry’s “Consortium News” below features Jonathan Marshall who gives a laudable possibility that Donald Trump could help end the war in Ukraine. This quick fix possibility looks like it could appeal to Trump. He wouldn’t have to do much to make a huge difference as he starts his term. Let’s hope that someone gets the possible win-win to him, if they haven’t already.
The article gives a clear, short, sequenced narrative of Ukraine events in case you, like many of us, have a hard time keeping up with the continually exploding happenings across Ukraine and the Middle East.
Let’s hope for best,
Sharon
