This huge! This bill was sitting for months and months without action. Consequences of this bill will impact Russia dramatically in a economic way. GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham said that President Donald Trump has given the greenlight on a long-awaited bill to impose stiff sanctions on countries purchasing Russia oil — and the bill could come up in the Senate next week. Graham and Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal have been pushing for a floor vote on their sanctions legislation for months, arguing that the way to break Putin’s war machine in Ukraine is through Russia’s reliance on oil markets. The bill would allow the president to impose harsh sanctions on nations that purchase oil, natural gas and uranium from Russia, with exceptions for countries who have made contributions to Ukraine’s war effort.https://edition.cnn.com/world/live-news/trump-venezuela-oil-greenland-07-01-26

Yes, we know the answer. The writer of the article does not know the answer. I did not write this. I am clarifying as quotation appears to be my words.

Many are now asking whether the United Nations has any future at all if it cannot fulfil its first promise of maintaining international peace and security. Has the UN reached the end of its lifespan? It does, therefore, appear as though we are witnessing the collapse of the UN-led international peace and security system in real time. https://theconversation.com/venezuela-gaza-ukraine-is-the-un-failing-272703

Just take note that following comes from the state own Russian RT channel. Russia treats its soldiers as warriors on a holy mission from God, President Vladimir Putin said after attending a Christmas service on Wednesday. The president met with veterans of the Ukraine conflict and their families at the Saint George the Victorious Church outside Moscow. “You should be rightfully proud of your fathers and your mothers, as the Russian people have always been proud of their warriors,” Putin told a group of children. “We often call the Lord the Savior because he came to earth to save all people. It is the same with our warriors, because they are always, under the direction of the Lord, on a mission to defend the fatherland and its people,” he added. “At all times, Russia has viewed its warriors as carrying out a holy mission under the direction of the Lord,” Putin said.https://www.rt.com/russia/630683-putin-russian-soldiers-mission-god/

KOTS hmmm? Well UK is not invading anyone, USA acts alone not as a duel power in this regard. Duel world power? Not sure ... they seem to be very divided on the issues. But perhaps those issues do not erase the relationship they have as a duel world power? Prime minister assures colleagues he may one day stand up to Donald Trump – but not yet.

Expect even more conflicting reports and confusion about the matter

To pray for someone is different than making statements. When we pray we do not take sides but we urge Jehovah to support our brothers. Something to think about: What Jehovah is teaching us below? Injustice often inflames political passions. Jesus’ enemies tried to trap Jesus by getting him to take sides on a taxation issue. The tax in question was the “head tax,” a tax of one denarius levied on Roman subjects. (Read Matthew 22:16-18.) The Jews especially resented this tax. It represented their subjection to Rome. The “party followers of Herod” who raised this issue hoped that if Jesus denounced the tax, he might be accused of sedition. If Jesus said that taxation was a necessary burden, he could lose the support of his followers. 10 Jesus was careful to remain neutral on the taxation issue. “Pay back . . . Caesar’s things to Caesar, but God’s things to God,” he said. (Matt. 22:21) Of course, Jesus knew that corruption was common among tax collectors. But Jesus did not want to get sidetracked, diverted from the much more important issue. That was God’s Kingdom, which would be the real solution. He thereby set the example for all his followers. They should avoid becoming involved in political issues, no matter how right or just a certain cause might seem. Christians seek the Kingdom of God and his righteousness. They do that instead of forming strong opinions about, or speaking out against, certain unjust practices.—Matt. 6:33. W18 June

Maybe? Maybe not …. But turmoil is here for sure. Things can quickly escalate or settle down …. In the meantime Jehovah can act suddenly and make things very different overnight.

If this happens Japan said they might step in ... it would be messy and not as easy as it appears.
