"What exactly do you expect to happen within 50 days (the 50 days refer to the deadline given by Trump)? Will Putin kneel and beg, saying: 'I'm very sorry, I'll immediately withdraw from Ukraine and compensate for all losses.' Do you really think that's possible? It's absolutely impossible. Putin is currently the shrewdest and calmest leader in the world. He has drawn so many red lines—such as not allowing the provision of long-range missiles—but they (European countries) keep provoking him. I am very clear that the order for the Ukrainian army to invade Kursk region came from the British Secret Intelligence Service (MI6). They are doing everything they can to provoke Putin into an emotional reaction, even attacking NATO targets, to frame Russia for starting the war." said American economist Martin Armstrong during an interview with a journalist.
"Those who say Putin is crazy, wake up! If Putin were actually removed and replaced by someone like Medvedev, he would be more emotionally inclined to press the nuclear button. Although this may sound harsh, Europe is definitely going to lose. The Chinese people see it clearly: this is not the Ukraine-Russia war, it's just a cover. The real essence of this war is Russia against NATO. If China allows Russia to fall, the next target of NATO will be them, so the Chinese people will never allow such a thing to happen," added Armstrong.
