Unconsciously, The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has lasted for more than 4 months. The latest news is that the Russian army has left Snake Island . Putin does this to allow Ukraine to freely export food from the Black Sea . Since then, no matter whether the global food crisis can be solved or not, it will be difficult for the United States and the West to insist that "Russia caused the global food crisis."
At the same time, as the Seven-Nation Summit and the NATO Summit were held consecutively, the world situation has undergone new changes.
At the Seven-Nation Summit, Johnson once said that he wanted to compare chest muscles with Putin. Trudeau thought this suggestion was good. Putin responded positively to Johnson and Trudeau’s provocations. Putin mocked Johnson and said, "I don't know how they want to take it off, whether it is to the waist or below the waist." Later, Putin changed the subject and emphasized that either way, this is a disgusting scene.
Putin emphasized that everything about a person, whether body or soul, should be developed in a friendly way, such as refusing to drink alcohol, exercising, and engaging in a sport.
The starting point of Johnson's emphasis on comparing chest muscles with Putin was mainly to prove that he was tougher than Putin, but Putin did not continue to talk about this topic. In terms of age, Putin is decades older than Johnson, but even so, Johnson may not be as good as Putin if it is just about his chest muscles.
But at the moment, Putin has no intention of accepting the move. In Putin's view, it should be a very funny thing for the British Prime Minister to blurt out the words "competing chest muscles" because Johnson does not have a "friendly soul."
During this period, Britain had a particularly tough attitude towards Russia. For example, it wanted warships to enter the Black Sea and provide security for Ukrainian cargo ships. But most of the time, Britain's challenge to Russia is only verbal. Britain's choice is to sanction Russia and support Ukraine, but it has never had a direct conflict with Russia.
In 2021, Britain made a move to provoke Russia, but it ended in failure. At that time, the British warship suddenly came to the coast of Crimea. After warning to no avail, the Russian army chose to open fire to expel it, and the British warship finally ran away in despair.
Although the United Kingdom has emphasized that it will continue to do so and has not forgotten to warn Russia that Crimea is Ukrainian territory, so far, no British warships have appeared in the waters of Crimea.
Britain’s frequent provocations once angered Russia. The latter even said that if there was a conflict with , NATO, , London would be the first to be bombed, but Britain is still the same Britain and has never lost in a verbal war. Putin saw this in his eyes and took it to heart, but he couldn't do anything.
It is not difficult to imagine that if given the opportunity, Putin will definitely give Britain a severe blow, so that Britain will know what it means to overestimate its capabilities.
While Putin satirized Johnson, Biden held talks with Erdogan. Biden thanked Erdogan for helping Turkey open the Black Sea channel and supporting Finland Sweden to join NATO.
What exactly Biden and Erdogan talked about is still unknown for the time being, but now that Turkey has gotten the results it wanted and Finland and Sweden are about to join NATO, Turkey and the United States, which were once very unhappy, can be said to Everyone gets something.
Finland and Sweden have promised to lift the embargo on Turkish weapons and have kept a distance from the Kurdish armed forces. If the United States is interested enough, it should export F-16 fighter jets to Türkiye next.
Turkey's foreign strategy has always been to please both sides and to favor the one who offers the most benefits. After the Russia-Ukraine conflict broke out, Turkey and India took this strategy to the extreme and both became big winners.
It is undeniable that Turkey's "background" strategy is indeed very easy to arouse resentment. Even the United States and Russia probably will not believe Turkey.But at the moment, Turkey has gained a lot of benefits in this way. From Turkey's standpoint, it seems understandable for Ankara to do so.
A new round of competition has begun. There are only a handful of allies that Russia can rely on and trust. How to make friends more and enemies less is a challenge Russia has to face.
