President Trump’s administration imposed sanctions on a series of Russian organizations and individuals on Thursday in retaliation for interference in the 2016 presidential elections and other “malicious” cyberattacks. It was the most significant action taken against Moscow since Mr. Trump took office.....

Same day as the U.K/ nerve gs denouncement. Interesting development. Maybe this will take his focus off tariff wars.

 

[Falsedawn]

 

[Seano]

Better late then never.

The story makes it seems as though it was a coordinated idea between several nations. Probably took a while to get everyone on the same page.

 

[Cake4Breakfast]

Bout time

 

[HomerThompson]

I'm actually shocked they're doing this. Trump had sat on those sanctions passed by Congress for so long, that I thought they would remain relatively silent here. The UK must have shared pretty convincing intel. Good for Trump.

 

[Cake4Breakfast]

The story makes it seems as though it was a coordinated idea between several nations. Probably took a while to get everyone on the same page.

But the statement included no joint action in response.

 

[Seaside]

But you want nuclear war which is why you are upset or are you upset at the delay?

 

[sickc0d3r]

Awesome. Fuck Russia.

 

[nac386]

Good. Putin seems to have gotten more and more bold over the last 12 months, it's time that somebody stood up to him.

 

[Rational Poster]

But I thought it was all made up by the deep state to save face for Hillary Clinton's embarrassment.

 

[Seano]

But the statement included no joint action in response.

Right, everyone wants America to take care of it. No one else is going to stick their neck out there against Russia.

I guess the Don won't be having tea with Vlad any time soon.

Who besides the United States can reasonably deter Russian aggression?

May was spitting fire at Russia, must have been drinking really strong tea going in.

 

[Peteyandjia]

First Robocop, then Ghostbusters, now the Cold War.

Getting sick of all these 1980's reboots

 

[Seano]

May was spitting fire at Russia

What would she do without the US as an ally? The UK would be wiped out in a war with Russia.

 

[Seano]

Who besides the United States can reasonably deter Russian aggression?

Said this the other day, maybe the rest of the world should stop telling us to go fuck ourselves over our own policy if they expect us to wipe their asses when it comes to military intervention.
