(Original title: Trump's "Major Change in Position")

According to a report on the Washington Post website on August 23, U.S. President Trump hinted that he would suspend efforts to promote the Ukraine peace agreement, and expressed dissatisfaction with the rising number of casualties and the failure of Russia and Ukraine to reach a peace agreement.

Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on the 22nd: "I am not satisfied with any aspect of this war, nothing at all, not at all."

He also said an important decision would be made "within two weeks" on the future course of the conflict, a phrase Mr. Trump frequently uses, though not to refer specifically to a precise time frame but to signal a desire to make a decision later. After that time, he said, "people will know my choice because I will only choose one or the other."

U.S. President Trump Information

This statement marks a major shift in Trump's position.In recent weeks, he has repeatedly expressed full confidence in his ability to fight for security in Ukraine and to promptly facilitate a meeting between the leaders of the two sides of the conflict ¨C Russian President Putin and Ukrainian President Zelensky.

Trump has invested a lot of time and energy in bringing the war to an end as soon as possible, including a summit with Putin in Alaska more than a week ago, followed by meetings with Zelensky and European leaders in the White House on March 18.

However, these efforts have not brought any signs of progress, and Russia has always refused to accept its proposals to stop attacks on Ukraine, nor is it willing to make any concessions in the event that the highest goal of the war is not achieved.External analysts point out that the White House may have misunderstood Putin's intentions and may also be influenced by a voluntary thought.

Trump said he would now give Putin some time to decide whether to meet with Zelensky.

Cow playing the piano: accusing Russia of being an "aggressor country" Trump has changed his face again

Heraclitus, the Greek philosopher, once said, "Nothing lasts forever, nothing moves."

Only in Trump, this circulation seems to accelerate into a dizzying rhythm.

Trump has changed his face.

People who are paying attention to the situation in Russia and Ukraine suddenly have a new discovery: Trump has changed his face again?

On August 21, Trump suddenly posted two posts in a row, hinting on urging Ukraine to attack Russian mainland.

It should be known that less than a week ago, in Alaska, he also spoke with Putin; even when Zelensky and European leaders visited the White House, his thoughts were not shaken.

Here's what Trump said:

It is very difficult, if not impossible, to win the war without attacking the aggressor country. It's like a good team in sports, with excellent defense, but not allowed to attack, has no hope of winning at all! Such is the case with Ukraine and Russia.

He then said:

Dishonest and incompetent Joe Biden didn't let Ukraine fight back, only allowed it to defend. What was the result? In any case, if I were President at the time, this war would never have happened - the chances are zero. The future is full of hope!!!

Finally, three symbolic signs; signature: President Donald Trump.

At this juncture of the situation in Russia and Ukraine, what is Trump doing?

From this post, there are still a few new trends.

1. He accused Russia of being an aggressor country. All in all, this is the first time that Trump has characterized Russia in this way.

2. He rarely complained about Ukraine, hinting that he would provide Ukraine with offensive weapons and attack the Russian mainland.

3. He reiterated his consistent statement that if he were the president of the United States at that time, Russia and Ukraine would not be able to fight, and Biden is to blame.

He also vowed to mediate the conflict between Russia and Ukraine; The back foot fired fiercely again, encouraging Ukraine to attack Russia?

Does this represent a major shift in U.S. policy towards Russia?

Comparative photos posted by Trump

Just in the suspicion of people, the impatient Trump posted two comparison photos.

At the opening ceremony of the American National Exhibition in Moscow in 1959, U.S. Vice President Nixon and Soviet leader Khrushchev held a fierce debate on the ideology of the West, as well as the nuclear war.

Because the two were standing in front of the kitchen utensils booth at that time, it was called the "kitchen debate".

Nixon pointed his right index finger at Khrushchev's chest, naturally showing his tough attitude towards the Soviet Union.

Trump should take it for comparison. Therefore, another picture he put is a picture of his right index finger pointing to Putin during the meeting in Alaska.

We often say that a picture is better than a thousand words.

But on the dissemination, we are more vigilant, with images and videos, and sometimes easier to deceive people.

Between appearance and reality, there is often a deep undeniable divide.

Trump handed Putin, showing his strength.But let¡¯s be more clear, a few days ago, he also laid on the red carpet and personally welcomed Putin at the airport.

Not to mention, Putin also pointed to Trump.

Trump personally welcomed Putin at the airport

Putin, are you strong or close?

But no matter what, the meaning of Trump's two photos and two tweets should be very clear.

At least three meanings.

The first one was handed over to Putin.

It should also pressure Putin that if he does not agree to a ceasefire, the consequences will be serious.The United States does not rule out providing offensive weapons to Ukraine, allowing Ukraine to attack Russian mainland.

As for the ¡°aggressive country¡±, it doesn¡¯t have to be too much.

Trump has a big mouth, and he even described going to Alaska as going to Russia.

We don't have to take it too seriously.

In international politics, words are often, as Nietzsche put it, "There is no truth, only interpretation", and everything depends on who is reading and why.

The second volume, passed to Europe and Ukraine.

Don¡¯t worry too much, I¡¯m not inclined to Russia; you see, I¡¯m not calling Russia an ¡°aggressor.¡±

Moreover, Biden was too bad to bind the hands and feet of Ukraine; if I launched, any offensive weapons could be provided.

Germany, why don't you also provide Taurus missiles!

The third is to be passed on to Trump critics.

Didn't you criticize me for being too polite and weak to Putin, and too overbearing and snobbish to Europe and Ukraine?

I have to say, many western cartoonists like to draw best now, that is, Trump is too attentive to Putin.

But look, there are people like me, Trump, who are tough on Putin.

It can be completely comparable to Nixon's versus Khrushchev.

And I have a lot of backbone, not excluding providing offensive weapons to Ukraine.

If you want to fight, then fight.

Of course, in Europe, you have the money ready to buy American arms first and then deliver them to Ukraine.

I always felt that these two tweets also showed two very distinctive features of Trump.

The first characteristic is his volatility and uncertainty.

The only thing we can be sure of in this world is Trump's uncertainty. Anyway, the one who can overthrow Trump will definitely be Trump in a few minutes.

We think the day-to-day change is a governing taboo; but for Trump, it¡¯s a regular meal.

There is a joke that said: Trump attended a meeting and finally made a decision, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief; but when Trump went out, he chatted with the doorman for a while, and he changed his mind again, making people go crazy...

The second characteristic is that he likes to show strength, but he is actually extremely smart.

Therefore, looking at his social account, he really criticizes the world.

Whether it was Macron, Stammer, or Merkel and Trudeau at that time, they were all scolded by him, not to mention Biden, who was picked out as targets by Trump every day.

Biden was helpless. Who said that in American politics, the one who misses him most is Trump.

But don't underestimate Trump's emotional intelligence.

Who to scold, how to scold, and when to scold is still very particular.

Machiavelli said in Monarchy that real power lies in the precise moment of showing power and compromise.

Some friends will analyze the above two tweets, even if the fierce criticism of Russia has even thrown off the unprecedented hat of "aggressor country", but Trump is not willing to name Putin, but will target Biden.

Biden, in the end, you are too incompetent.

There are comments joking that the above picture is "the six gates of the siege of the light top", and the below picture is "the seven great guys of Europe to the White House to listen to class."

Also, the seven European bosses went to the White House to collectively stand for Zelensky. In addition to letting them sit in small chairs and listen to his lectures at the White House, Trump avenged the "six major factions besieged Guangming Top" that year.

Looking at Western media reports, and also at this White House meeting, Von der Leyen spoke a lot about the disappearance of children, Trump was very unhappy, and even once asked Von der Leyen "to meet", because he wanted to talk to the real leader of the country.

A little tofu and a little water.

Aunt Feng, Aunt Feng, I wonder if there is such a thing?

Finally, back to the question at the beginning, has Trump changed his face?

His words changed, but he really didn't feel like he didn't. He just fired a few more empty words and made the headlines a few more times.

And even if it really changed, it will definitely come back in two days.

A 180-degree turn, and even a 360-degree 720-degree fox dance, for others, it is a big deal, but for Trump, it is not possible to take the hand.

What do you say, Putin?
