A black belt for Biden.
"Western nations are imposing increasingly severe sanctions on Russia following its invasion on Ukraine. The measures are designed to cripple Russia's economy and punish its government for taking military action," BBC. "The European Union, the United States, France, Germany, Italy, Canada and Britain agreed ... to ensure that selected Russian banks are removed from SWIFT to harm their ability to operate globally," Reuters. Japan joined Western nations in freezing Russian assets and "Apart from those held by six individuals including President Vladimir Putin and Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, Japan will freeze assets of Russia state-owned Promsvyazbank and Vnesheconombank, as well as the country's central bank," Reuters. The problem has arisen because of Ukraine's desire to join NATO, which is a militant association of armed forces of the US and European countries, The Print, which has fought illegal wars in Iraq, Libya and Afghanistan. Russia objects to hostile nuclear missiles right on its border. As proof of the complete control of the whole world by Western countries, "Russian teams were suspended from international soccer, including qualifying matches for the 2022 World Cup, as Moscow was pushed toward pariah status in sports for its invasion of Ukraine. World soccer body FIFA and European authority UEFA banned Russian national and club teams from their competitions 'until further notice'," ET. "World Taekwondo stripped President Vladimir Putin of his honorary taekwondo black belt," ET. The egregious attack on Libya and the murder of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011 by NATO, FP, shows the extreme power of western nations to punish anyone that they may not like. "Muammar Gaddafi's youngest son, Saif Al-Arab, and three grandchildren were killed in an airstrike on Tripoli, the government said," BS. Barack Obama still has his belt. Why this vicious reaction attack on Russia? Because of natural gas. "With the completion of the construction of Nord Stream 2 in September 2021, the US realized it had only a small window of opportunity before the pipeline got operationalized and it loses the EU's energy markets completely to Russian influence. Russia would no longer need Ukrainian transit pipelines to meet nearly 80 percent of its European energy supply obligations. And thus, America would lose a trump card it had held since 2014 when the Obama administration staged a coup d'etat and installed a pro-West far-right militia-run regime in Kyiv in a completely unconstitutional election process," wrote Lt Gen Abhay Krishna. The US has lost every war since the Korean war in 1953, which ended in stalemate, wikipedia. "The US Army has concluded that Iran was the only victor of the eight-year US campaign to remove Iraqi president Saddam Hussein and replace him with a democratic regime," Quartz. Joe Biden's disastrous flight from Afghanistan has left Taliban in complete control, The Atlantic. And now, "With US-NATO staring at Russia for the time to come, China will get a free pass in the Indo-Pacific, perhaps even allowing its PLA to indulge in some adventurism regarding Taiwan," HT. With the Taliban, Pakistan and China getting stronger, India is in more danger. If China gets Taiwan, Japan will be in danger. Perhaps, Joe Biden will also get a taikwondo black belt.
