The invasion of Ukraine by Russia is President Biden’s lowest foreign policy moment. Before this military campaign began in Ukraine, the world had an absolute uni-polar order, controlled by the United States. No other country has tested this construct since the end of the cold war at scale. But just like that, Russia has inserted itself, not theoretically, but practically. And the world slept with that and woke up, and accepted it.
Yes, President Biden has given us a clear multi-polar order with China and Russia. Russia will likely pursue a playbook with commodities, energy and military – and do not expect this to end in Ukraine. The world ought to have prevented this invasion!
If you are an investor, it is time to make efforts to understand what happens in Russia and China as you do with the United States. These three countries will move markets; Russia wants to be noticed. Read Putin: “Top officials in leading NATO countries have allowed themselves to make aggressive comments about our country, therefore I hereby order the minister of Defense … to place the Russian Army Deterrence Force on combat alert.”

Yes, President Putin is telling everyone that he has nuclear weapons to turn the world into ashes and we’re not even a week into the war. Simply, your strength comes from your technology, economy, democracy, etc but you cannot ignore thermonuclear weapons which are 1000x more devastating than atomic bombs.
The world has CHANGED. And the veil is off!
Update: It took Russia’s invasion of Ukraine for Germany to quickly upgrade its defense spending. President Trump pushed for this change with his style and bravado but none cared. But with the paralysis in Ukraine, the signal is clear: you are on your own! People, the world has CHANGED.

Is Biden actually leading? First, it was Afghanistan, and now Ukraine, after all the empty assurances.
The weak people occupying big offices will keep issuing statements, condemning in ‘strongest terms’, while the mafias run riot.
Still wondering what failure looks like…
