Putin is either a tremendous chess player or some lucky bastard. Nothing president Obama tried to block him worked, and now, every action Trump does seems to benefit Putin sooner or later. e.g. Europe needs gas and oil. They were getting it through Ormuz. Now it is closed, and Russia still has a lot of both. But the EU is not buying it from them because of the invasion of Ukraine. Now Trump says he will leave Nato, and Putin is knocking at EU’s door with energy deals and weapons #NATO #EU
