    And now that the US is pulling out of a proxy war, the EU is insisting it continue, consequences of nuclear war be damned.

        And you’re both going to continue a fight the US started, leaving both the EU & Russia in a weakened state. Which if you look into the leaked communications from the US state dept, you’d see that was exactly the plan.
