The deal is designed to troll the Transatlantic partnership, and it is working. 0:00 Russia Trolls the West 0:47 The Current Controversy 2:00 The Diesel Crunch 4:30 Trump's Bad Options 5:33 Ukraine's Strikes on Russia 7:33 Performative Politics 10:49 Russia's Financial Impact 13:07 Why Is Russia Doing This? 14:47 The Bigger Picture of the Problem The appearance of U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), EU, and NATO visual information does not imply or constitute an endorsement.
