$LAVROV, US wants to buy Nord Stream on the cheap. YERMAK betrayed. Macron, I find you very pretty Topic 2055 Trump and Xi Jinping just held a two-hour summit in Beijing and what was said about Taiwan, Iran, and the future of US-China relations could reshape global diplomacy. Alex Christoforou of The Duran breaks down the meetings real meaning, including why the absence of weeks-long diplomatic preparation signals this was more of a business summit than a geopolitical breakthrough. Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov, speaking at the BRICS meeting in India, laid out Moscows claim that the United States is engineering full-spectrum energy dominance including a plan to purchase the Nord Stream pipeline company at a fraction of its value and resell Russian gas to Europe under an American label. Meanwhile, Russia launched one of its largest drone and missile barrages in months, Ukraines air defense intercepted under 30% of incoming fire, Zelenskys former chief of staff Yermak is now facing money laundering charges, and NATO chief Rutte is quietly pushing to triple financial support for Kiev. Is the Wests Ukraine strategy finally cracking under the weight of its own contradictions?
