US Policy on the Russian-Ukrainian War
How pathetic the US policy on the Russian-Ukrainian war looks. If Biden was openly afraid of Putin, Trump is going to cooperate with a thief. And this is not surprising. It is enough to look at the results of the United States' international actions and see that all its greatness is only on paper. After the Second World War, in almost all conflicts in which the United States participated, it was defeated or brought chaos and instability. And this is despite the fact that the United States fought only with the much weaker. And now Trump is de-emphasizing his strength in front of the weaker ones, and flirting with Putin because his knees are shaking...
