Trump frustrated about Iran - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 12.14pm post " Trump reportedly frustrated as he waits on envoys’ judgment over Iran strikes  "

Let's Get Real:

The deadline is THURSDAY, the Americans will meet with Iran in Geneva.  That should decide the outcome, this blog still thinks Trump is WIMP and will chicken out, he does not like long wars, such as Afghanistan and Iraq, he was critical of Iraq at the time.  The Oval will try to weasel out of action, he might accept a 2nd hand deal from Iran or Tehran will cave, if it had a brain cell it would.  It will interesting to see the State of the Union tonight ( Wednesday morning here in the UK ) will POTUS mention Iran in the speech, give them another ultimatum, its 10 days and counting down so far.

Russia has not achieved its goals in the Ukraine - Updare

It's four years since Russia invaded the Ukraine.

BBC News; Reports in its 10.55am post that Russia has stated it has not achieved its goals in the Ukraine.

Let's Get Real:

The WAR was expected to be short, destroyed Russian tanks had dress uniforms for the the tank soldiers who expected to get to Kyiv within a week! The Ukraine fought back, thus fours years of Trench Warfare, Europe has not seen it since WW1.  The Biden Administration and Europe supported the Ukraine, of 2025 Trump Administration has been a hindrance, demanding that NATO countries pay for the military kit and not signing security guarantees, thus the frozen front line in the front line.  The War goes on.
