The Spin
Pro-Russia narrative
For years, Russia has voluntarily abided by the INF Treaty while warning the collective West about the growing presence of short- and intermediate-range, nuclear-capable missiles from the U.S. on the European continent. Unfortunately, the situation has only gotten worse — to the point where Russia must now take a number of reciprocal measures for its security.
Pro-establishment narrative
With nuclear threats to Russia, Trump just officially made Ukraine his war. Yes, Putin started it, and Biden did not stop it, but Trump, after initially claiming he could resolve it in a day, then a hundred days, has continued to arm Ukraine after coming to the realization that Russia doesn't want peace. Much depends on the U.S. envoy's visit to Moscow this week.
