That's absolutely disgusting. Never been, it's to save the Russian economy and make Putler the winner of this war.
Masterful gambit actually if that's the motive.
The Art of the Deal.
I don't think Turkey Türkiye will agree.
We are already going. EDIT: Elmo didn't like it.
Can't wait to see how the tariffs on Canada, EU and Mexico will hit the US economy. Since most MAGA's don't know how the tariffs work, here it is with bananas and monkeys: Let’s imagine a jungle where a group of monkeys love eating bananas. But not all bananas grow in their part of the jungle—some come from a neighboring monkey tribe that grows them more efficiently. So, the local monkeys trade shiny stones for these bananas, getting them at a good price. One day, the monkey chief decides he wants the local monkeys to grow more of their own bananas instead of relying on the neighboring tribe. To do this, he places a "banana tariff"—a rule that says any imported banana now costs extra shiny stones. Now, what happens? Imported Bananas Get More Expensive – Since the tariff makes foreign bananas pricier, the local monkeys have to pay more shiny stones to get the same bananas they used to enjoy cheaply. Local Banana Farmers Get a Boost... But Not Efficiently – Some monkeys try growing bananas themselves, but they’re not as good at it. Their bananas take longer to grow and aren’t as tasty, but because imported bananas are now expensive, local monkeys have no choice but to buy them. Monkeys Have Fewer Shiny Stones to Spend Elsewhere – Since they’re spending more on bananas, they have fewer shiny stones for things like coconuts, hammocks, or jungle parties. Other monkey businesses start struggling. The Other Tribe Strikes Back – Angry at the new tariff, the neighboring monkeys put their own tax on the shiny stones or on something they sell to the first tribe, like delicious mangoes. Now, both tribes are worse off! In short, tariffs make bananas (or real-world goods) more expensive, hurt trade, and can lead to retaliation. While they might help some local banana growers, the entire jungle ends up paying the price.
