It was not an energy ceasefire. It was a gift to Putin. A White House official told Axios that, as Trump understands it, the term means only that Russia and Ukraine stop attacking each other's oil refineries—and that this is what Washington expects Ukraine to do. Ukraine has one refinery, while Russia has 38, of which 21 have been targeted by Ukrainian drones.

I don't think it's about treating China like an enemy but more about becoming over reliant on them. If we get on their bad side (which we problaby will at some point) how fucked are we if they stop trade with us?

    I mean you have to trade with one or the other preferably both. They are by far the largest economies in the world. What do you replace them with? You can't, sure trade with everyone else also but unless you want to severly limit your market you don't have a choice.
