Its funny to me that after Venezuela and everything else, that people are still underestimating this guy and his strategies to rid the world of actual dictatorships. You all realize that hes not the only person making these decisions right? Secretary of Treasury is destroying their banking networks and sanctioning every aspect to their regimes. They are going to run out of money. They have lost just about everything. Their troops arent gonna fight when they dont get paid and many will turn on the regime. Cuba is being systematically dismantled right now as well. Its about to go down also.
Did Saddam's regime collapse after the monkey-pounding we gave him in GW1?
Did the Germans bomb England into submission during the Blitz?
I doubt you can change a regime without boots on the ground.
Without boots on the ground the best you could achieve would be to fragment them and turn them into a failed-state region of warlords sitting on the the choke-point of the most important energy route in the world.
But hey, good luck with your Special Military Operation. Pottery Barn Rules.
Oh, next he is going want to lift sanctions on Russia so they can flood the market with blood-oil while he has the Gulf shut down. He had a "perfect" call with Vlad.
