The main statements of Trump at the meeting with Merz:
▪ Iran lost its Navy, Air Force, and control over the airspace;
▪ Israel did not force the US to launch an operation against Iran. Perhaps I forced them to act, Trump noted;

▪ The US is not satisfied with the UK's approaches to defense and operations against Iran;
▪ The United States will continue to use military bases in Spain for operations against Iran if necessary, despite Madrid's discontent;
▪ The US intends to sever all trade relations with Spain after its refusal to increase military spending to 5% of GDP.

The Website tracks spending on military actions against Iran since 2024. Additionally, you can see that, since February 28th, the USA has spent $900 million dollars per day on hostilities. You can also see how many alternate social programs the US could have funded with the money being spent attacking Iran just in the time you've been viewing the site.
Remember, this doesn't even include damages to infrastructure or knock-on economic effects from rising oil prices, etc.

This will not going to work with Iran having regular Navy there. To secure vessels against pirates in the bay of Aden they had to land crews of 6-8 people on board to make passage safe. But it will not work against Navy.

АДЕКВАТ Z on Ukraine:
🈁 From the very beginning of the Iranian war, not a single bit of attention has been paid to the Ukrainians. It's time to change that.
The money allocated by all the hosts at the farmstead is only enough for about a month left, so the promised 90 billion euros from the EU should start flowing in April (it won't cover all the needs, but at least it will prevent an immediate collapse). Hungary blocked the unanimous final agreement on this aid: there will be no aid until the oil pumping through "Druzhba" resumes. And just today, the stinky monkey announced that (I won't go into the details of the backstabbing) there will be no pumping until the end of the war or at least until a ceasefire. The Euroscum are boasting that they'll find money for the Ukrainians one way or another, but promising it (again, I won't go into the details) is much easier than actually doing it.
This was, in particular, another (countless) vivid illustration for fools who've been struggling for years with the question of why we don't eliminate the stinky one. Well, we need to dust him off first.

WARSAW, March 3 (Reuters) - Poland wants to be autonomous in the future when it comes to a nuclear deterrent, Prime Minister Donald Tusk said on Tuesday, as Europe seeks to build its capabilities independently of the United States.
On Monday, Tusk announced that Poland is holding talks with France and a group of its closest European allies regarding an advanced nuclear deterrence programme.
"We are investing heavily in future nuclear power plants, and Poland will not want to be passive when it comes to nuclear security in a military context," the prime minister said before the start of Tuesday's government meeting.
"We will cooperate with our allies... as our capabilities increase, we will try to prepare Poland for autonomous action in this matter."
Tusk also said that Poland is discussing its proposal for an advanced nuclear deterrent system with France and is also consulting with the countries that were invited to participate in this project along with Poland.
"In March, the Nuclear Energy Summit will take place in Paris. There, I will also have the opportunity to discuss this not only with President Macron (of France), but also with our other European partners."
