Белоруссия

После Украины время напрячься наступает для республики Беларусь. Вдобавок к новым маневрам России вдоль границы - одно из самых загадачнох сообщений прошлой недели: Администрация Трампа (предположительно генерал Флинн) наводит справки о польском вторжении в Беларусь.

According to one U.S. official, national security aides have sought information about Polish incursions in Belarus, an eyebrow-raising request because little evidence of such activities appears to exist.

Откуда им пришла такая дикая идея - непонятно, но пахнет какими-то русскими источниками.

Знаменитая конгрессвумен Максин Уотерс внесла в Конгресс законопроект о проверке российских связей Трампа.



Congresswoman Maxine Waters, Ranking Member of the House Financial Services Committee, introduced legislation demanding that congressional investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 election include a thorough review of any collusion between persons associated, formally or informally, with President Donald Trump and the Russian government. In a press conference announcing the legislation with other progressive Members of Congress, Congresswoman Waters delivered the following remarks:

Like so many of you, we have been shaken by events that have occurred over the last 11 days since Donald Trump was inaugurated. We have been shaken by the lies, the deception, and the stunning level of incompetence.

In just under two weeks, Donald Trump has unnerved our allies, challenged our values, and brought so much instability and chaos to our country. This chaos is sure to please at least one person – Vladimir Putin. For everyone Trump is quick to bully, from world leaders to gold star families, to disabled Americans, there seems to be one person on the world’s stage who can do no wrong in Trump’s eyes. A dictator and former KGB agent who armed Assad in Syria as he attacked innocent civilians appears to be the only man that Donald Trump will not disparage.

Given the extensive ties between Russia and individuals associated with Trump, we cannot ignore the possibility that there may have been collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign.

Уотерс не скрывает, для чего это делается, и не боится произнести страшное слово "импичмент".
