The Donroe Doctrine
- Thread starter Ron in Regina
- Start date
If The U.S. is below Canada, and Alaska is to the NW of Canada, & Trump is dead set on “acquiring” Greenland by whatever means (including militarily) necessary…to the NE of Canada, where does that leave the future state of Labrador, Newfoundland, & Greenland on your map?
Anyway, back to the Donroe Doctrine, Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel rejected Trump's threat on social media, suggesting the U.S. had no moral authority to force a deal on Cuba.
"Cuba is a free, independent, and sovereign nation. Nobody dictates what we do," Diaz-Canel said on X. "Cuba does not attack; it has been attacked by the U.S. for 66 years, and it does not threaten; it prepares, ready to defend the homeland to the last drop of blood."
The U.S. president did not elaborate on his suggested “deal,” but Trump's push on Cuba represents the latest escalation in his move to bring regional powers in line with the United States and underscores the seriousness of the administration's ambition to dominate the Western Hemisphere.

reliesrelied on imported crude and fuel mainly provided by Venezuela, and Mexico in smaller volumes, purchased on the open market to keep its power generators and vehicles running.
As its operational refining capacity dwindled in recent years, Venezuela's supply of crude and fuel to Cuba has fallen. But the South American countryiswas still the largest provider with some 26,500 barrels per day exported last year, according to ship tracking data and internal documents of state-run PDVSA, which covered roughly 50% of Cuba's oil deficit.

Or Maine becomes significantly larger as it stretches into the Arctic. If Maine absorbed New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI, and Newfoundland & Labrador, it would become a massive territory, growing from its current ~35,000 sq mi (90,600 km²) to over 220,000 square miles (approx. 570,000 km²), making it roughly the size of France or Texas, vastly larger than its current New England stature…& that’s without factoring in Greenland.

"This is our hemisphere, and as the president said after the operation to capture Maduro, you know, American dominance in our hemisphere will not be questioned ever again," Jeremy Lewin, senior U.S. official for foreign assistance, humanitarian affairs, and religious freedom said, adding that the case of Venezuela "should make clear to the Cuban regime and every other despot around the world that you don't play games with President Trump." (???)
The State Department said this week it would finally deliver $3 million of aid pledged to the Cuban people in the wake of Hurricane Melissa in October. The hurricane ravaged eastern Cuba, isolating communities, destroying homes and flooding cropland.
Cuba has questioned Washington's motives (almost like someone’s playing a game with Cuba?) for sending the aid 77 days after it was announced and more than two months after the storm`s passage, but said it would accept the contributions and ensure they were distributed to those affected by the hurricane.
Trump has vowed to stop oil and money from longtime backer Venezuela from reaching Cuba after the January 3 operation that captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, a measure that analysts say could be catastrophic for Cuba's alreadyailing fuel supply, electrical grid and economy…cat & mouse style?
Anyway, the aid would be channeled through Cuba's Catholic Church and closely monitored, said Jeremy Lewin, senior U.S. official for foreign assistance, humanitarian affairs, and religious freedom, adding that the U.S. would hold Cuba "accountable" if any aid was diverted.
Vice Foreign Minister Carlos de Cossio later decried Lewin's comments on X as "apocalyptic threats" and said Washington failed to comprehend support for the Cuban government.
Cuba's Foreign Ministry said in a statement late on Wednesday that the U.S. move to send the aid now was "opportunistic" and "political manipulation" disguised as a humanitarian gesture, but that it would assure its appropriate use regardless.

The United States has piled dozens of new sanctions on the Communist-run country since a trade embargo was put in place following Fidel Castro's 1959 revolution 67 years ago. Cuba's collapsed economy, including widespread shortages of fuel (primarily from Venezuela until a few weeks ago), food and medicine (greatly complicated by the US embargo), has complicated recovery efforts following the storm in late October 2025.

These are some weird times.New world order (politics) - Wikipedia
A unipolar state is not the same as an empire or a hegemon that can control the behavior of all other states.
United States engaged in strategic restraint after World War II, thereby convincing weaker states that it was more interested in cooperation rather than domination. U.S. strategic restraint allowed weaker countries to participate in the make-up of the post-war world order, which limited opportunities for the United States to exploit total power advantages.
The United States could have unilaterally engaged in unfettered power projection, it decided instead to "lock in" its advantage long after zenith by establishing an enduring institutional order, gave weaker countries a voice, reduced great power uncertainty, and mitigated the security dilemma. That was then, and this is now.
Scholars have debated whether the current international order (as of 2025) is characterized by unipolarity, bipolarity or multipolarity. Other countries simply cannot match the power of the United States by joining alliances or building up their militaries." With no great power to check its adventurism, the United States will weaken itself by misusing its power internationally. "Wide latitude" of "policy choices" will allow the U.S. to act capriciously on the basis of "internal political pressure and national ambition."
Even if the United States acts benevolently, states will still attempt to balance against it because the power asymmetry demands it: In a self-help system, states do not worry about other states' intentions as they do other states' capabilities. "Unbalanced power leaves weaker states feeling uneasy and gives them reason to strengthen their positions.”

Carney got weird, declaring that the partnership sets Canada and China up for the, uh, “new world order.” What non-trade concessions will China expect from Canada in our “new partnership”?
Ahead of the grand canola-EV pact, the Chinese and Canadian governments signed a half dozen or so memorandums of understanding, mostly re-establishing earlier agreements that had expired — you know, because of all the kidnapping and election interfering.

Germany blundered by cozying up to Russia as it readied to wage war on Ukraine. Canada is making the same error
The United States, Russia and China, of course, have always been superpowers. In the past, they could not always get what they wanted. They were limited by international law, trade relationships, economics and circumstance. In 2026, that is no longer the case.
The world order is now beset by Social Darwinism on a staggering scale. For myriad reasons, America, Russia and China are the strong and they utterly dominate us, the comparatively-weak. They are thugs, most days, and the rest of the world knows it but cannot even say it aloud. So we go along.
With a straight face, Prime Minister Mark Carney last week trumpeted his assorted trade deals with China as a “new world order,” quote unquote. That was an unfortunate choice of words, but apt.
{Inter alia, the New World Order (NWO) was a stable of professional wrestlers, and a forgettable genre of heavy metal music. But, mostly, “New World Order” refers to a conspiracy theory that alleges a secret cabal of global elites that plots to create a totalitarian one-world government. The Illuminati, the Freemasons, George Soros and the Rothschilds are all in on it. (Of course.)}So, for Carney to celebrate a New World Order with China was, to say the least, a poor choice of words. Off to the woodshed, PMO spinners. In his private moments, Mark Carney probably acknowledges that – diplomatically, economically, militarily – Canada is a middle power, if that. A single chair at the G7 notwithstanding, we get pushed around. A lot.
On China, there have been two Mark Carneys. There is the election-time Mark Carney, who solemnly declared China “the biggest security threat” facing Canada. Then, there is the post-election Mark Carney, who now says China is a more reliable trading partner than the United States, that we are on “the right track” with the Chinese regime, that it’s an historic “strategic partnership” and – my personal favourite – the aforementioned “new world order.” Hulk Hogan, stand aside.
Mark Carney’s job description does indeed include a requirement that he offset Trump’s tariffs and 51st state insanity. And inking a trade deal with Malaysia, as Carney did in the fall, doesn’t quite get us where we need to be. True.
But, with China, now? A country that imprisoned and executed our citizens? A country that spied on us and broke our laws? That country? How ‘bout just a trade deal with China to help offset Trump and his Trumpiness without crazy security agreements with China?
