[Harpy Eagle]

So now Putin is aligning with China......LOL

This is not something new.

[Frankenstein]

Trump was too busy wiping the last of Putin's spunk from his chin to think straight.

How about that, yet Putin never invaded until sleepy Joe took over.

 

[Blaster]

NK stopped shooting missiles when Trump was President.

 

[Mindful]

You tax slaves better get back to work, he’s arranging another 10% deal as part of another hundred billion laundering scheme since a lot of that Omnibus money is "portable".

Do you think he could be electioneering?

Trying to make everybody love him?

Liar.

February 11, 2017	North Korea test-fired a Pukkuksong-2 missile over the Sea of Japan. This was the first launch of the new medium-range ballistic missile.[32][33][10]
March 6, 2017	North Korea launches four ballistic missiles from the Tongchang-ri launch site in the northwest.[34] Some flew 620 mi (1,000 km) before falling into the Sea of Japan.[35][10]
April 4, 2017	North Korea test-fired a medium-range ballistic missile from its eastern port of Sinpo into the Sea of Japan[36][37][10]
April 15, 2017	North Korea test-fired an unidentified land-based missile from the naval base in Sinpo but it exploded almost immediately after the takeoff.[38][39][40][41]
April 28, 2017	North Korea test-fired an unidentified missile from Pukchang airfield.[42][43] The missile, believed to be a medium-range[44] KN-17 ballistic missile,[42] faltered and broke apart minutes after liftoff.[44][45][46]
May 13, 2017	North Korea test-fired a Hwasong-12[47] missile from a test site in the area of Kusong.[48] The missile, later revealed to be an intermediate range ballistic missile,[49] traveled 30 minutes,[50] reached an altitude of more than 2,111.5 km, and flew a horizontal distance of 789 km (490 mi), before falling into the Sea of Japan.[49] Such a missile would have a range of at least 4,000, reaching Guam, to 6,000 km.[48][47]
May 21, 2017	North Korea test-fired another Pukkuksong-2 medium-range ballistic missile from Pukchang airfield,[51][52] which traveled approximately 500 km (310 mi) before falling into the Sea of Japan.[53] The missile landed about 350 km (220 mi) from North Korea's east coast.[53]
May 29, 2017	North Korea fired a short range ballistic missile into the Sea of Japan. It traveled 450 km.[54]
June 8, 2017	North Korea fired several missiles into the Sea of Japan. They are believed to be anti-ship missiles.[55] The South Korean military said the launches show the reclusive regime's "precise targeting capability."[56]
June 23, 2017	North Korea tested a new rocket engine that could possibly be fitted to an intercontinental ballistic missile.[57] This engine was later believed to be for the second stage of the Hwasong-15, first flown later in 2017.[58][59]
July 4, 2017	North Korea tested its first intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) named Hwasong-14 on July 4.[60][61] It launched from the Panghyon Aircraft Factory 8 km southeast of Panghyon Airport.[62] It was aimed straight up at a lofted trajectory and reached more than 2,500 km into space.[63] It landed 37 minutes later,[64] more than 930 km from its launch site,[65] into Japan's exclusive economic zone.[66] Aiming long, the missile would have traveled 7,000–8,000 km or more, reaching Alaska, Hawaii, and possibly Seattle.[64][67][68][69][70] Its operational range would be farther, bringing a 500 kg payload to targets in most of the contiguous United States 9,700 km away.[71][72][73]
July 28, 2017	The 14th missile test carried out by North Korea in 2017 was another ICBM launched at 23:41 North Korea time (15:41 GMT) from Chagang Province in the north of the country on July 28, 2017. Los Angeles, Denver, Chicago, Boston, and New York City appear to be within range.[74] The missile's reentry vehicle (RV) was seen by people in Japan as it entered the atmosphere and landed near the northernmost Japanese island, Hokkaido.[75][76] Analysis later revealed that the RV broke up on re-entry; further testing would be required.[77] The CIA made an assessment expecting adequate performance of the RV under the different stresses of a shallower trajectory towards the continental US.[78]
August 26, 2017	North Korea test-fired three short-range ballistic missiles from the Kangwon Province on August 26. Two travel approximately 250 kilometers in a northeastern direction and one explodes immediately after launch.[79]
August 29, 2017	On August 29, 2017, at 6 AM local time, North Korea launched a ballistic missile over Northern Japan.[80] The missile's short and low trajectory and its breakup into three pieces is consistent with the failure of a heavy post-boost vehicle.[81]
September 15, 2017	North Korea launched a ballistic missile on September 15 from Sunan airfield. It reached a height of 770 km and flew a distance of 3,700 km for 17 minutes over Hokkaido before landing in the Pacific.[82]
November 28, 2017	North Korea launched an ICBM from the vicinity of Pyongsong at 1:30pm EST/3:00am Pyongyang time. The rocket traveled for 50 minutes and reached 2,800 miles (4,500 km) in height, both of which were new milestones. The missile flew 600 miles (970 km) east into the Sea of Japan; unlike summer launches, the Japanese government did not issue cellphone alerts to warn its citizens. North Korea called it a Hwasong-15 missile. Its potential range appears to be more than 8,000 miles (13,000 km), able to reach Washington and the rest of the continental United States.[83][84] Much about the missile is unknown. The missile might have been fitted with a mock warhead to increase its range, in which case the maximum missile range while carrying a heavy warhead might be shorter than 13,000 km. Based on satellite imagery, some experts believe that North Korea may now be able to fuel missiles horizontally, shortening the delay between when a missile becomes visible to when it can be launched.[83] The rocket is believed to have broken up on re-entry into the atmosphere.[85]
May 4, 2019	North Korea launched several short-range projectiles from the vicinity of Wonsan on the country's east coast,[86] initial speculation as possibly a Russian Iskander missile which can make course corrections during its flight.[87] Later designated as KN-23.[88]
May 9, 2019	North Korea launched two short-range ballistic missiles[87] from the vicinity of Sinori in North Pyongan Province (launch area also, in another source, identified as Kusong[87]) at 4:29 p.m. and 4:49 p.m. local time.[89]
July 25, 2019	North Korea launched two short-range ballistic missiles, believed to be of a new design.[90] Demonstrated maximum range is 690 km.[91]
July 31, 2019	North Korea launched "several" short-range ballistic missiles.[92]
August 2, 2019	North Korea launched two short-range ballistic missiles at 2:59 a.m. and 3:23 a.m. local time.[93]
August 24, 2019	North Korea launched two short-range ballistic missiles from Sondok in South Hamgyong Province. Both fell in the Sea of Japan.[94]
September 10, 2019	North Korea launched two short-range projectiles from Kaechon shortly after proposing to resume denuclearization negotiations with the US. Both the projectiles fell into the sea off the North's east coast.[95]
October 2, 2019	North Korea test-fired a new-type submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) in the waters off Wonsan. The Republic of Korea Armed Forces said the missile, which was dubbed Pukguksong-3, flew about 450 kilometers and reached a maximum altitude of 910 kilometers, making it an intermediate-range ballistic missile. It fell into the exclusive economic zone of Japan off Shimane Prefecture. North Korea said the launch was successful.[96][97]
October 31, 2019	North Korea test-fired two short-range projectiles from Sunchon at 4:35 p.m. and 4:38 p.m. Both flew around 370 km and reached a maximum altitude of 90 km before falling in the Sea of Japan.[98]
November 28, 2019	North Korea test-launched two "short-range projectiles".[99] Rocket exhaust was visible from Russia.[100]
March 2, 2020	North Korea carried out test-launch of two unidentified projectiles from eastwards over the sea from the Wonsan area on the east coast. Projectiles are equipped with an operational range of 240 kilometres, and capable to flew a height of 35 kilometres.[101]

How about that, yet Putin never invaded until sleepy Joe took over.

He didn't need to invade. He was getting everything he wanted. Trump was his tool and never posed a problem.
Putin had a useful idiot in The Oval Office. Of course that all changed when Biden won and replaced Trump.

 

[Foolardi]

Does he know what he's doing there?

President Biden makes surprise visit to Kyiv, Ukraine, meets with President Zelenskyy

President Biden traveled to Ukraine’s capital city of Kyiv early Monday morning in a surprise visit as the country's war against Russia reaches the one-year mark.

Looking for the Ideal Ice Cream cone.?
Maybe trying to cash a few dozen Hunter Biden Monthly
Burisma Holdings paychecks.Unaware that Ukrainian money
is no good in the states.Therefore reduced to using the paycheck
moola on stuff like some nice Ethnic clothes and rugs for his
White House.

Trump knew how to act both smartly and expediently in Foreign
Affairs.He knew how to temper relations with the Biggest owner {Russia }
of Nuclear weapons { besides the U.S. } and make it seem like
cake.Biden is a total wreck in everything he says and does.
And Don't Forget that Hunter Biden was doing business with
Russian Oligarchs.Profitting and cutting deals.The dirty dog MSM
is not going to remind Joe public about that,Folks.

Trump was a weakling who appeased our enemies like Putin.
Putin knew this. Trump was his bitch.
As soon as Trump took office in 2016 he began appeasing Putin by weakening America's international alliances; NATO being one.
Putin was able to relax knowing he had a useful idiot in Trump who would abandon our allies in the face of Russian aggression.
The plan that these two tyrants had was that Putin would invade during Trump's second term.....and Trump wouldn't lift a finger to stop him.
But then Trump got unexpectedly kicked to rhe curb in 2020 and suddenly Putin's red carpet into Ukraine vanished.

America had a STRONG leader again who WASN'T gonna play nice with Russia.
And now he's pretty much slapped Putin in the face sneaking into Ukraine right under Putin's nose and making a fool of him.

That visit was planned months ago.

What exactly was he "getting" from Trump that he wasn't still "getting" in the spring of 2022?

How did Trump weaken NATO?

What is the purpose of NATO?

How were we "playing nice" with Russia prior to this admin? What policy changes happened during this admin that was different than past Admins that makes you say we started not "playing nice" with Russia?

BTW how does an adversarial relationship with Russia benefit the US?

[MagicMike]

Appeasement and Trump's contempt for our European allies.
The same contempt Putin has for rhem.
Putin knew that Trump was too weak to oppose his expansion plans.

 

[Couchpotato]

Appeasement and Trump's contempt for our European allies.

Be specific. What actions by Russia were we appeasing during the Trump Admin that changed during Biden's?

The same contempt Putin has for rhem.
Putin knew that Trump was too weak to oppose his expansion plans.

If Putin believed that Trump wouldn't oppose his expansion plans and Biden would why would he choose to invade a country while Biden was President instead of when Trump was? Do you see how illogical that argument is? That would be like deciding to not break into a house when you know the residents aren't there and they forgot to turn on the alarm, and then when you see that they get home and arm it that's when you decide to break in.

 

[Mindful]

So?

Is that all you have to say for yourself?

If you believe that you need to check into a insane asylum, whast was Trump giving them that Pedo Joe took away? We are on the brink of ww3 because of Pedo Joe

My opinion, and purely hypothetical at this stage.

I don’t think Putin would have invaded under Trump.

All sorts of conflicts raised their ugly heads after Biden became encumbent.
