I wish I could find another source to confirm this, but if true, that’s basically the nuclear option to kick out all American companies and halt all mineral exports to the US.

    I keep seeing this, but realistically, what could Russia possibly do to the US? Russia can’t even defeat a tiny country they share a border with. I’d be more worried about China when it comes to an actual threat.

      Russia doesn’t want anything from the the U.S. except what it’s already doing. Fucking shit up on the international stage and thereby destabilizing NATO.

      Any decrease is Western Hegemony is good for Russia. It doesn’t matter whether they achieve it by tossing some people out of windows, or by helping an orange toddler ascend to the highest office in the U.S.
