Martin has own take on what is happening. He might be wrong.
The situation is what it is, but appearing one way or another, from different angles.
Next way-point checks, 24th April French runoff election, and 9th May Russian holiday.

The Euro is in serious trouble from two directions. (1) There is little doubt that the risk of war with Russia will devastate the Euro and there will be a mass outflow of capital to the dollar. (2) the French Elections show the run-off will be tight and the Euro is under pressure over the next two weeks also due to the French elections. In all honestly, a Macron loss will save Europe for a while for he is not just a stooge of Schwab's World Economic Forum, but he is fully on board with war against Russia to hide the failure of the European Union.
We can see that we have a turning point this coming week which probably reflects the coming run-off in the French elections between Macron and Le Pen which will be held on Sunday, April 24, 2022. However, May 9th is the victory celebration in Russia for winning WWII which the German Nazis were called the "Black Death" , and that much was Stalin's greatest accomplishment - saving Russia from Hitler.
What we do see is rising volatility post the French elections and since Macron is really pro-war and Le Pen is more against the war, Russia and the French elections are tied together. The danger we have is that Ukrain is indeed cannon fodder and they are being handed weapons from the USA, EU, and now the UK. They are being encouraged to begin attacking inside Russia with the missiles they are providing. Ukrainian troops are trained by NATO so, from Russia's perspective, this is really already a war with NATO. The rumor is that Ukraine will try to attack Russia aggressively to undermine their May 9th holiday. This is all become so cloak and dagger when we know the end game objective. Nobody cares about the Ukrainian civilians. The more killed the better for politics. |
