You are right that both China and Russia are clear eyed about America’s totally transparent intentions with their latest ‘peace’ talks. However, it’s actually entirely possible, advantageous even, for Russia to go along with it if it can secure the necessary concessions from the Americans.
The primary reason would be that America and Ukraine won’t be the only ones who can take advantage of the ensuing pause in the conflict to rearm and resupply.
Russia is already winning the logistics war against America and the rest of NATO with no direct military imports from China. How do you think the re-arm race will go when China full-sends military exports to Russia after a ceasefire is agreed?
Russia is achieving a favourable KD ratio right now, but there are fundamental issues with its war machine that is hard, if not impossible to fix while they are in a full scale war and China isn’t willing to sell arms to a participant in active combat. But with a pause in the fighting and the full catalogue of Chinese arms unlocked, Russia can fundamentally revamp its military and give it a quantum leap in a couple of years. Then, when it is ready, it can basically manufacture any pretext it wants to restart the war and achieve far more favourable exchange ratios while also being able to conduct proper combined arms warfare instead of its current grinding attritional slog.
This is one example of corruption where I think the one who is bribing has no clear benifit. Musk stands to gain very little and lose a lot. Tesla sales are falling, twitter barely has any revenue, and space launching is not a very big industry. I don't seem to know what he is trying to achieve.
I mean you are just some random guy and Elon Musk is the richest person on the planet, so he probably knows what he is doing. It's obvious what this is about, China is using its leverage over Comrade Musk to inform Comrade Trump to go easy on China.
You have to see it through the Bob Woodward lens. As we know that Woodward was the one who exposed Nixon in Watergate. He wrote a book 'All the President's Men'. In that book he asks Deepthroat, the agent who leaked the Watergate break in, as to why do the people in the Nixon administration act and behave the way they do, Deepthroat says ' you have to understand that these are not smart men' . And we assume that these bureaucrats are obviously smarter than Trump's entourage. There is no Mad Man theory, they are behaving and acting like headless chickens. This is the reason why there are endless leaks.
Bruh. See some Trump interviews from 1980s. Tariffs on Asia are one of his fundamental core beliefs. He only has two firm opinion and one is tariffs. And Musk is rich because of an insanely manipulated stock and being born to a father with an emrald mine.
I once thought Elon was the High Inquisitor to the God Emperor Trump, but it seems like he is much closer to a court enuch than I thought —

Unless it was for medical reasons, someone doing this to their own body is a worrying sign of deep mental issues.
Does “Oh God, oh God, yes, yes, YES” count? If so, they do!
I think its similar to the framing before by some media. Was it economist? Im not sure...
