Germany is irrelevant anymore in the grand scheme of global power. However, we have a newcomer in the class that is trying their best to inherit that title - China. So maybe, just maybe, Trump and Pootin were discussing things Chinese related yesterday. Trump has a pretty good level of disdain for all things China and something tells me he was putting the pressure on Pootin to come around to our side. Guess what, you can't do that by brow beating the person you hope to get support from.

I think that is Trump's long term goal here is to put the pressure on China with Russia's help. We'll see.

There never has been much love between Russia and China. Could be right.

The Russo-Sino War was a major armed conflict between the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China. The war began when the Chinese Army launched a massive failed Invasion of Siberia, in response to the Russo-Sino Border War. The Russian Federation declared war on the PRC on December 1, 2023.

I don't believe the USA and Russia were ever allies in WWI.

Both fought Germany in WWI, but not at the same time.

Could be wrong.

We entered WW1 in April-1917. Russia withdrew in October-1917

In 1918, we also fought (without success) alongside the Whites in the Russian Civil War.

Like I said could be wrong.
Thxs for setting me straight although I doubt there was much collusions with the Russians then.

But we both were officially fighting the Germans for a short time.

Yeah, a Chinese loss in that war would endanger the formation of the US-Chinese Alliance that your browncoats rebel against around 2500.
