For the first time since the US created an international group to coordinate military aid to Ukraine three years ago, America’s Pentagon chief will not be in attendance when more than 50 other defense leaders meet Wednesday, June 4. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who returned from a national security conference in Singapore on Sunday, will not arrive in Brussels until Wednesday evening, after the Ukraine Defense Contact Group’s meeting is over.
It is the latest in a series of steps that the US has taken to distance itself from the Ukraine war effort. And it comes on the heels of French President Emmanuel Macron’s warning at the security conference last weekend that the US and others risk a dangerous double standard if their concentration on a potential conflict with China is done at the cost of abandoning Ukraine.
What an abysmal sack of shit.
Do you really want Hegseth getting involved? Man’s got the Sidam touch in a way even other members of the Trump team can’t help but notice.
Given the abysmal OpSec he’s demonstrated, seems like he’d be more harm than good.
A fair point. I’m hoping he’d just be passed out and some competent person could get Ukraine what they need.
Wouldn’t that be a Sadim touch?
Wouldn’t want the rest of the world to know he drinks more Putinka than the russian generals do.
putin is really upset at trump and hesgeth, of the recent drone attacks.
Needs to block off more serious drinking time.
It being malicious seems like an obvious answer, but I seriously would not be surprised if it was a booking error or some sort of hubris that they’d wait for him.
Of course he does. They scheduled it on tequila thursdays, his religious pilgrimage to the bottom of a bottle comes first.
He is too busy renaming bases / ships after confederate generals, putting on makeup, chatting it up with his signal bros.
Bad hangover. Or being the true alcoholic and just making plans around his drinking.
He’s too busy brainstorming new names for the USNS Harriet Tubman because her actions and beliefs that “slavery is bad, actually” apparently don’t align with the current administration’s ideology. But why am I’m repeating things y’all already know? Everyone’s on his Signal chat, of course.
hes brainstorming how to get drunk faster, because he built up a tolerance to heavy drinker.
No value loss. Not sure what the story is.
Too busy worrying about ThE dEi, I imagine.
Yea I’ve been hungover and called off work too petey.
