You want to cut the Gordian knot, change the geopolitical world, create a strategic alignment; but to do that you need Putin to accept you do not view him as the enemy. You also need to prove you have control over the apparatus he views as a threat.
How do you prove you have control over the agency?
Trump instructs the CIA to send one public message. A message that: 1) outlines the CIA’s dual targeting of Trump and Putin; 2) that simultaneously proves your control over the CIA silo.
Was this the motive for the timing of the message from CIA Director John Ratcliffe?
It does look like Trump is trying to do this. This is a deep KOBK (Kill-Or-Be-Killed) move, though instead of ‘killing’ Putin/ Russia, Trump is proving to them that he does not want to ‘kill’ them. He wants cooperation and a solid alliance, which both leaders apparently deeply understand will be the greatest foreign policy outcome of this Century if they can achieve it. And it’s looking good, in my opinion. This is a very exciting interpretation about a super important strategy both leaders appear to be working toward. ABN
