  1. Starmer in his press interview said that in his call to trump on saturday he was assured that the US would still be honouring article 5 of NATO. Thats one of the reasons europe was able to go ahead with their peace plan. As it needed some kind of US support/backstop to it. Trump also would have been told about the overall plan and starmer said that they would not have gone ahead with it on the sunday without some assurances from the US.

  2. They are not just russian state funded trolls. There are far right nationalists in every country. Thats why there are so many. The US, UK, serbia, india, europe, asia and africa all have trolls that post in support of putin. This is the world wide web after all. Some have been recruited/paid by russia to troll. Some not. It is organised at times so they can swamp social media sites with misinformation so as to bury the truth. Then the old propaganda adage "if you tell a lie enough times it becomes a truth" comes into play. Although it seems like there are so many of these trolls online at the moment, it must be remembered, that they are still only a tiny minority of a countries population. Indeed the worlds. Plus the extremes in politics always lobby/propagandise the hardest.
