Trump Promises Pressure on Moscow, But G7 Allies Don't Buy It
Trump says he is frustrated with Putin again, but European leaders are mostly just rolling their eyes.
Trump showed up at the G7 summit dropping hints that he might tear up those mysterious Alaska deal promises where Moscow was supposed to get Donbas. He claims he is totally disappointed with Putin and ready to crack down.
The only problem? European leaders present at the meeting simply do not believe he will actually do anything. According to officials, everyone listened to the tough talk, but nobody is holding their breath for real sanctions or action.
Talking tough behind closed doors is completely free, while actual enforcement usually requires a bit more effort than dramatic hints.
World diplomacy is currently relying heavily on classic mood swings.
