President Donald Trump has offered to represent the United States in mediating a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine in an effort to prevent global tensions from further escalating.
Russian President Vladimir Putinโs army is on the ropes and had to resort to the desperate measure of a large mobilization of Russiaโs fighting-age male population.
However, many Russian men donโt want to go to war because they know they will be canon fodder.
Ukraineโs surprise offensive exposed the weakness of the Russian army but the nation is still armed to the teeth.
Adding to that volatile mix is the โsabotageโ of the Nord Stream pipeline system.
As Slay News reported earlier, the European Union has confirmed that the recent massive leaks on the Nord Stream 1 & 2 pipelines were the result of โdeliberate attacks.โ
EUโs foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said: โThe European Union is deeply concerned about damage to the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines that has resulted in leaks in the international waters of the Baltic Sea.
โSafety and environmental concerns are of utmost priority.
โThese incidents are not a coincidence and affect us all. All available information indicates those leaks are the result of a deliberate act.
โWe will support any investigation aimed at getting full clarity on what happened and why, and will take further steps to increase our resilience in energy security.
โAny deliberate disruption of European energy infrastructure is utterly unacceptable and will be met with a robust and united response,โ he said.

As tensions continue to rise near breaking point, Trump has offered to step in and try to mediate a peace deal of some type.
Trump said:
โU.S. โLeadershipโ should remain โcool, calm, and dryโ on the SABOTAGE of the Nord Stream Pipelines.
โThis is a big event that should not entail a big solution, at least not yet.
โDo not make matters worse with the pipeline blowup.
โBe strategic, be smart (brilliant!), get a negotiated deal done NOW.
โThe entire World is at stake.
โI will head up group???
โEveryone is talking about the big hurricane barreling into Florida, as they should be.
โBut perhaps a far more important event in the longer term was the announcement that the Nord Stream I & II Pipelines out of Russia (which I brought to the Worldโs attention as President when I explained how crippling reliance on it could be for Germany and other parts of Europe.ย Everybody laughed at the time, but they are not laughing anymore!) has been SABOTAGED.
โThis could lead to major escalation or War,โ Trump said.
