Trump lifts Iranian oil sanctions for 30 days

[Bitcoin_Arena]

by the way what your opinion about Trump decision attack Iran did you agree?

He has said that there's now an agreement between him and Iran: Trump says he's postponing power plant strikes after US-Iran talks - but Tehran denies talks took place
And as said on that news as well, Tehran is denying that there has been a peace talk between the two. So for those who are hoping that this might come to an end, I guess that we're still going to see a lot of things happening in that Strait. 

And I hope the Iranian folks do not fall for the peace talks or ceasefire trap. Trump and co. are compulsive liars who use ceasefire and peace talks to kill off any target they have in mind. If anyone trusts Trump's words or anything from his administration, then they shouldn't blame anyone else except themselves.

Its likely the Iranian forces in any negotiation are not one singular voice, possibly a varied range from across the entire country possibly.   Because of the bombing and loss of life I'm not sure there is a unified blanket force voice but varied sections with different opinions of how viable the war might be.
  In that kind of situation attacks from both sides probably continue for years, civil war is more likely then before and so on.   This is often true in wars, during ww2 various countries would be both fighting the invasion and others in the same country negotiating and even acting in support.
  Obviously the Iran regime has been killing off its people for many years, certainly its not a popular regime without opposition but the better question is how much power is commanded by those who want to end this war vs those who want it to continue.

This is one of the funniest outcomes to come out of the US imposing war on Iran.

The sanctions were maintained through so many presidencies yet Trump managed to fuck things up so tremendously that now the pentagon went out and requested 200 billions and still can't maintain order to an extent that oil prices remain stable. The effects Iran imposed in response were catastrophic to the entire American economy and moved trump to make concessions.

The global economic effect of the war has been massive and countries like China, India, and Russia etc that have direct supply from Iran are most hit in the energy war, which calls for an emergency approach to reduce the impact of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz by the Iranian regime due to the war.

The USA/Israel and Iran war has ultimately affected the global economy badly but in terms of oil effect I don't think Russia should be in the list of countries you have there as countries that have also being mostly hit by the war in oil/energy supply. Russia is abundantly rich in oil resource and arguably one of the most exporters of oil in the world.  That's why you could see that all the economic trade sanctions  by US and NATO really didn't affect them as they were relatively self sufficient with their rich resources including oil and gas. Say India and China, and I would agree but definitely not Russia.

This is his latest lie. With two goals at once: to gain time until the ships with troops arrive at the Bay, and the second goal is to manipulate the markets for insider trading. That is, the president of the most powerful country does not shy away from behaving like an ordinary insider trader. It certainly looks humiliating for the United States. Or not? Is this normal? The president lies, retracts his words, constantly changes his mind, and attacks during negotiations. Any negotiations with him are pointless, because he will renounce any agreements the next day (or in a week). Therefore, there are no options for ending the war at all.

Trump not only failed to make America great again, but also disgraced the country worldwide. Now other countries understand perfectly well that the US can no longer be relied upon on any issue. The state is becoming a pariah. Trust is gone. When a mentally retarded person occupies such a high position, nothing less was to be expected. I warned from the very beginning about the impending disaster. America has never known such a stupid president.

The words of the red-haired clown are worthless. He doesn't remember what he said this morning. He has several contradictory thoughts in a single sentence. It's more like schizophrenia in its acute phase.

Russia, canada, and norway are among the few countries that have benefited from the Iran-ireland conflict. Because they are major oil and gas exporting countries, and Russia is the biggest beneficiary among them.
According to report, Russia has earned more than $7 billion in just two week since the war broke out, and experts predict they could earn tens of billions more in the coming week as the war continues and oil prices continue to rise.

What made sanctions work, historically speaking, it was the belief that they reflected a consistent position. That they carried weight beyond economic leverage. Once you waive them when oil prices are inconvenient, the instrument changes. In this case, It loses power, the next time, and the time after that.

And the NATO is really complex in a way that the "paper tiger". Trump isn't entirely wrong that European members of the alliance have been spotty contributors. But there's a deep difference between "you have to spend more on defense" and "you failed my test" and at the same time promising to annex part of Denmark. Those two things cannot co-exist credibly. You cannot expect people to be loyal to you if you have actively undermined them.

Europe, to their credit, seems to be processing this in a way that's actually probably healthier long term. They're building out. Germany is the fourth largest spender for the military now. EU defense budget receiving serious allocations. The conversation has truly changed from "how do we keep the US engaged" to "what does a no-America scenario require".

What is the logic in claiming territory from an ally? Politically, what does it mean when the architect of the rules exempts itself from them?

Probably they do not disappear. They just get hollowed out and turn into a kind of rhetorical form that powerful states reference when doing whatever they were going to do anyway. Which, again, is not completely new. But the performance of rule-following was also valuable. It caused friction, slowed things down, provided the smaller states with at least the argument if not always the outcome.
