PUTIN-TRUMP SUMMIT IN BUDAPEST: HEADING TOWARDS DETENTE OR A SHOWDOWN?

There is a big question of how we have got to the point where Putin and Trump have committed themselves to another summit in Budapest.

By Alexander Mercouris.

The first thing to say is that there is none of the excitement - or concern - we saw ahead of the summit in Alaska. The European media, which was in a frenzy before the Alaska summit, is playing this summit down.

The second is that the Russians seem to be much more skeptical. Not only have Putin and Lavrov been challenged by the Russian media in recent press conferences and interviews, but it seems to me that Ushakov in his briefing seemed more doubtful than before. He spoke of the call between Putin and Trump as merely being ‘quite useful’, and made no comment about warmth or ‘sincerity’ between the leaders.

It is clear that there is a tension we have not seen before.

This has caused me to read through all the various comments made since Alaska by Putin and Lavrov, going back all the way to the press conference that Putin and Trump held after...

The Ukrainian government is so deeply corrupt - on all levels!

As you know, a 17-year-old Ukrainian was stabbed to death in Ireland. A 17-year-old Somali man killed him because of pork.

Allegedly, the Ukrainian was cooking pork in the kitchen. The Somali didn't know how to stop such haram, so he first physically attacked Vadim but, after noticing a knife, grabbed it and stabbed the Ukrainian in the back.

There were other children there at the same time, but they all ran away.
The Somali is being taken to a Children's Court, and will be tried as a child.

Vadim arrived there on Sunday. He was killed on Wednesday morning.
He was going to turn 18 on November 1.

The cynical thing is that the authorities called his mother and told her that her son was dead, and that it would be too expensive to transport the body and offered to cremate it (it's cheaper and the state of Ireland would cover the expenses).

Mom refused, and was told to prepare 8 thousand euros.

The Ukrainian Embassy ...

It’s not relevant if Hungary is a signatory to the ICC or not. What would happen to the country who decided to IN ANY WAY hurt the President of Russia. These Europeans have no idea what they are playing with. Just effing stupid. I think that’s why Putin is walking in with great confidence.

Putin: Hey egg head Mertz…come and arrest me if you’re so bad ass. Either do it or STFU!

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"

I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad !

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

Hope to see you all asap.
