Trump views Russia as an ally, not as an adversary. In the Ukraine war, he has put enormous effort into trying to paint Ukraine as the aggressor and the problem, and Russia as the victims trying to be reasonable

Trump made it pretty clear that he considers Russia the only real ally of the US and NATO it‘s enemy.

Look, I have no problem with a Russian tanker bringing oil, okay? People hear “oil,” they panic. I say, what kind of oil are we talking about? Olive oil, very healthy. Canola oil, also very popular. People are cooking, they’re sautéing, they’re doing tremendous things in the kitchen. And if it’s going to Cuba—Cuba Gooding Jr., by the way, great actor, fantastic energy—if he needs oil, you let him have the oil. You don’t stop a great American talent from getting his olive oil. That would be ridiculous, frankly. So no problem. Let the tanker come in, let the oil flow—preferably extra virgin, the best kind. Everybody wins.

Rhymeswithfire Mar 30, 2026 +3

Does Mexico have oil though? Serious question. Is the reason the US hasn't taken over Mexico because they don't have natural resources the US can exploit? Or do they give the US their resources at a discounted rate? Because to me (Aussie) it seems like every war the US has ever waged was because that other country has oil. And they want a regime that contracts their natural resources for a lower rate than the current.

3

Blofish1 Mar 30, 2026 +12

Mexico is a very big oil producer

12

Rhymeswithfire Mar 30, 2026

Thank you, I didn't know that. It's strange to me Trump isn't waging war on his closest neighbour though. What are your thoughts on that? I did a cursory google search (probably wrong?) that said Mexico doesn't have nuclear weapons. So what's the deal? Is this America's main source of oil/c**** oil everyone keeps talking about? How America isn't affected by the Hormuz straight oil tankers not being able to pass?

0

Blofish1 Mar 30, 2026 +2

America is the number one producer of oil in the world. The US both imports and exports different types of oil so it's not so cut and dried. IIRC the US imports from both Mexico and Saudi Arabia but could weather being cut off from MidEast oil better than most countries. Of course, even with American production, the US economy is greatly affected by the price of oil in the world. If oil hits $110 dollars a barrel than that's what American consumers are going to pay no matter where the oil is produced.

I legitimately can't tell if you're deliberately pretending to be naive to troll, or cannot comprehend that your assumption("US only attacks countries that have oil to buy it at a lower rate") is wrong.

TheAngryGoat Mar 30, 2026 +7

Logic: Trump is also the enemy

ex0e Mar 30, 2026 +1

Mexico successfully sent humanitarian aid to Cuba via military ships. Either Trump is afraid of Mexico or he is in love with Russia, after removing Russia's main overseas allies.

1

Enitnatsnoc Mar 30, 2026 -6

It's not about permission. It's just that the Russian Federation had the courage to send humanitarian aid to Cuba even at the risk of losing a tanker, but Mexico refused to carry out such actions. They preferred to listen to the instructions, although they verbally stated their opposition to such a policy.

-6

Free-Way-9220 Mar 30, 2026 +6

Of course its about permission. What do you think a "total pressure embargo" means. Trump relentlessly seeks vladimir Putin's approval and validation. Putin gets a free pass

6

Enitnatsnoc Mar 30, 2026 +1

It's about listening to Daddy Trump, and kissing his ass. There are simply no balls to send a tanker with humanitarian aid. Take that risk and see what happens.

I’m not American so please forgive me if I’m drawing lines incorrectly here or have my history wrong but wasn’t the whole “Cuban Missile Crisis” a big scare because Russians could set up a base there which was dangerously close to the US? It was the closest we got to World War 3 during the Cold War. Now Trump is freely allowing Russian presence there and opening up that threat again. Time and time again, Trump has shown he’s a traitor to the US. Its honestly surprising to me this clown hasn’t been overthrown yet

Bet-looking-Cat Mar 30, 2026 +1

As an American who remembers the Cuban missile crisis; I think it would behoove the U.S. to allow it but to check the cargo first. Russia is in a desperate spot right now with the prosecution of its ports by Ukraine and the fall of Syria and perhaps eventually of the IRGC alongside sanctions. Putin loves to repeat history.

Let me get something straight, there never was a blockade, there was an embargo, which are different. USA simply refused to trade with any company trading with Cuba. I work for a tanker company and remember some Cuba embargo checks US was doing when arriving in the USA. Chinese and Russian companies were always welcome to trade with Cuba, that’s why the only new car you can buy there is Lada.
