... The Baltic states of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania are now unplugged from Russia's electricity grid and have joined the European Union's network.

Plans for the move -- which have been in the works since 2007 - were seen as essential for European security and had been brought forward after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. ...

Another way Pres Putin has isolated Russia because of his unprovoked invasion of a sovereign Country.

That photo of Pres Putin apparently gloating that he pwned Pres Trump is, imo, historical.

Pres Trump looks to put his tail between his legs, so weak, when confronted with Pres Putin.

A puppet recognizes its master?
