He’s going to attempt a coup. 2020 was the testing ground. After our government’s incompetence in holding him accountable the first time, they emboldened him to do it again. Our institutions are weakened, the military is being purged, our people are divided, our news is full of falsehoods, congress is defanged and the ultra rich are backing him with seemingly unlimited money. The ingredients for a coup are all present.

I can say with great certainty that the people that are downplaying Trump’s purge of the military have never read a history book

Our signal to the United States and countries in the Middle East about the Strait of Hormuz was that we were open to discussing it. As of today, I don't see any country lifting the blockade on its own, only joint steps can bring results. Ukraine has experience with launching the Grain Corridor in the Black Sea despite Russia’s attempts to block the flow of food and other goods. The situation now is similar, but it is about energy. Our suggestion – based on our experience – was as follows. The war and the negotiations on reopening the Hormuz Strait can go in parallel. It’s worth trying to find a diplomatic solution, and this could be beneficial for both sides in the war. An alternative step would be to control the Strait unilaterally, as Ukraine did with the Grain Corridor. Achieving this would require interceptors, military convoys to escort the vessels, a large integrated electronic warfare network, and other tools. We stand ready to help with this. But for now, we are not yet involved. So far, no one has made such a request. We are simply sharing our knowledge. If one day our partners want to make use of it, we would be ready. From an interview with NewsNation.

BREAKING: Russia, China, and France are blocking an Arab-backed push at the UN Security Council to authorize military action against Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, per NYT. According to diplomats, the three veto powers oppose any resolution language that would permit the use of force.
