๐ฅ๐ Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller calls the company a "national treasure" now in "difficult times," admitting last year's debt hit $60 billion. "This is our common duty as every citizen," he urges, claiming "fat years are gone" and it's "time to help" save the heritage.

Broader Stakes: If Trump acts, EU preps US firm sanctions; NATO weighs expulsion risks. Greenland's rare earths/minerals tempt, but sovereignty wins. Russia/China watchโEurope's stand signals no weak links. Stand with allies before history repeats as farce.
The slide towards dictatorship in the U.S. intensifies: under Trump, ICE agents execute citizens in the street, label them terrorists, & walk free. Tactics similar to those employed by Russia, as Europe faces the looming threat of American imperialism.

Then he drops the bomb: "For those who wonder why Trump is an aberrational president, you're listening to it right there."
