The Wall Street Journal had reported that Ukraine had given in to pressure from the White House to stop bombing Russian energy infrastructure.
Ukrainian officials, however, told the Kyiv Independent newspaper that they never agreed to a demand from Jared Kushner, the US president’s son-in-law, to pause refinery strikes for 30 days. The raids on Russia restarted on Friday, Kremlin officials said, complaining that Kyiv was now “simply ignoring” US wishes.
Trump has blamed the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, for the rise in global fuel prices, and last month lifted US sanctions on Russian diesel.

Neolibs in America, the ideology of America, are not at all threatened by Russia. They are threatened by losing money and capital. Cozying up to Russia against Europe is completely okay with neoliberals. A european war is good for american neolibs. A weak Europe is good for American neolibs, and neoliberalism is the ideology of America since Reagan. American ideology, Neoliberalism, is under no threat by Russia. The amount of fear Russia instills is extremely valuable to America’s ideology.
