"Russian President Vladimir Putin is keen to reshape global power dynamics. He sought to build a counterbalance to Western influence with a summit of BRICS countries, including the leaders of China and India, in Russia last week.

He has sought direct help for the war from Iran, which has supplied drones, and North Korea, which has shipped large amounts of ammunition, according to Western governments."

Vlad saw Russia' place in the world order slip from #2 to #3 with China's rise... and the Ukraine is a way of him having a hissy fit about it. Of course, it also blends with his long sought goals of reunifying the old SU states.

If Trump wins, then Ukraine will the first of several states to fall, because Trump will appease Vlad, who will call off Iran's paid mercenaries against Israel, which Vlad can't afford anymore anyway.

And Trump can expand his Abraham Accords to become Peace in the Middle East with attack dogs called off.

Then, if he's the bible's Man of Sin, he will himself break the agreement and attack... Israel.

Go figure.
