Russia continues to test the limits both in Ukraine and with their violations of arms control treaties, what will Trump do. Go soft with more sanctions or send troops into Ukraine

WASHINGTON — Russia has secretly deployed a new cruise missile that American officials say violates a landmark arms control treaty, posing a major test for President Trump as his administration is facing a crisis over its ties to Moscow.

The Maidan revolution (glad you at least admit it was not a civil war) included many factions, but college students and Kyivians were prime among them.

Politicians and office-holders from various parties also spoke out.

"Russia was just more honest", wow. Just wow.
You mean THESE "college students?"

Because anyone who is familiar with the subject of "Ukrainian revolution" know very well by now that it were not "students" that were ravaging the police in Kiev, but the armed gangs of nationalists, who were trained and organized on American money ( I mean after all where did the $5 billion of American dollars invested in the change of the government go? Sure these dudes had their fair share, don't you think?)

So tell those fairy-tales about "students" to someone else pls.

Maybe we can have a draft and send you. The US people wont tolerate a shooting war with Russia after still being in 15 years of war in the mid east.

The timing is interesting. It seems to be a shift by Trump. And really, does Trump think Putin is going to just give it back?
This is just a distraction for the blind followers to think that Trump is "tough" when in reality Trump is Putin's little biatch.

Putin isn't returning anything and the Cheeto knows it. Possession is 9/10ths of the law.

Trump is a TRAITOR.

And yet you folks have the unmitigated gall to pile onto Trump for having to deal with an international issue that Barack Obama was too cowardly to confront?
And Trump isn't even going to confront it because he's in Putin's pocket.

Thought Trump was going to be so much better than Obama.

Trump is in way over his head.

Are you going to volunteer to go over and fight Russians?

Spicer saying it means nothing. We've all seen how easily lies fall of the tongues of the Trump administration. Trump needs to put his money where his mouth is...but we all know he actually has no money of his own so I don't expect that to happen. This is just a dog and pony show to try and take some of the heat off the investigation into his Russian ties.

No, it's intended to destroy that narrative. Putin is playing Trump like a violin, and probably suggested this himself to draw attention away from his own role in this mess and to convince those who want to be convinced that Trump and Putin aren't having the obvious bromance we've all witnessed.

Yeah, after all, look at those costly weapons we gave them, right?? Bicycle helmets painted to look like Ukrainian Easter eggs. Garbage can lids for shields. Piles of old tires set afire for camouflage. Baseball bats for self-defense. Clearly American interference.

BTW, it's Kyiv, not "Kiev".

He's feeling the pressure. Soon Trump won't have good relations with Russia, just as the plan requires. I'm sure there are secret reasons why we have to always stick a boot up Russia's ass. I doubt we'll find out the real reasons anytime soon. I'll have to call 007, get the scoop. lol
