Biden’s Ukraine visit upstages Putin and leaves Moscow’s military pundits raging

 

President Joe Biden’s surprise visit to Ukraine sparked anger and embarrassment among many of Russia’s hawkish military pundits on Monday, increasing pressure on Vladimir Putin as the Russian leader prepares to justify his stuttering invasion in a national address.

Biden’s historic visit came days before the one-year anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, providing a symbolic boost to Kyiv at a crucial juncture in the conflict.

But the visit caused fury in Russian pro-military and ultranationalist circles, as it upstages Putin on the eve of a major address in which the Russian president is expected to tout the supposed achievements of what he euphemistically calls a “special military operation.”

https://www.cnn.com/2023/02/20/europe/russia-reaction-biden-ukraine-visit-intl/index.html

Bidens visit has triggered a visit to Russia by China president XI .  There is speculation that China may supply arms to Russia , despite a previous refusal . Some reasoning is that China tried to be the peace maker but Zelensky did not want to know .  If the Chinese do supply weapons to Russia , that will start another cold war and heighten the tensions between the U.S.A. , Russia & China . I am not sure when the XI visit is scheduled for as it was announced early today . Looks like the war may not end any time soon and defeat for Putin has severe consequences for the world .

Harris can run in 28 if she wants. That will be an open contest.

Her resume is well known but she has been an unpopular vice president.

Presidential elections aren't usually decided based on the VP.

No winners here....none...

As I predicted months ago in my posts, all of the off ramps toward a non nuclear resolution have now been removed by Nato and the US.

 

Turning point will be in May.

 

If the Ukraine forces, with help from the west, seek to retake Crimea or push past the Donbass region and into Russian territory nuclear exchange is a given.

Putin already controls Belarus.  If he takes Ukraine his next target will be Moldova.

Those ginning up Putin's nuclear bluffs are playing right into his evil hands.

Belarus President (dictator) Alexander Lukashenko is Putin friendly as former Ukrain government was before trown over. A big difference since the majority of his people is not. Only 7,5 % is Russians in Belarus.

I am not American, however I do support the Democrats, because I have absolutely no time for the Republicans and their lies and political manoeuvrings, not to mention their previous lying presidential incumbent.

 

Much as I want the Dems to succeed in all they do, I was a little saddened to see this old man Biden shuffling around the place and occasionally stumbling with his words, and as for a "motivational speaker", well he doesn't cut the mustard in that regard, sad to say.

 

I sincerely hope the Dems have someone new "up their sleeve" to contest the next election, although Joe might get in at a pinch, but touch and go IMO.
 

He's pretty good for a person who has had a lifelong speech impediment and had to receive intensive therapy as a young person.

Xi will not be so stupid. He's gone there to persuade Putin to accept a political settlement acceptable to the west. China's trade is minuscule compare to that with the US and western allies against Russia.

China has warned Russia never to do this, so has India. Putin will only do this if he knows his number is up and the grim reaper has arrived at his door. At that time his Generals will off him. Russia wants to be a world player, not an ash tray. The mantra that the west should surrender to Russia because he might press the red button is getting tired now.

He is. No country should reject foreign policy involvement. America fought to keep Europe free from invaders in WW2 and this war continues that proud tradition.

So a President can't do two (or more) things at once? You must remember that we're not talking about trump here. President Biden is a real leader, not a carnival barker - bigly different.

This visit is all about China.

 

Biden to rally allies as Ukraine war gets more complicated

 

“I thought it was critical that there not be any doubt, none whatsoever, about U.S. support for Ukraine in the war,” Biden said as he stood with Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv before departing for Poland.

 

The administration on Sunday revealed it has new intelligence suggesting that China, which has remained on the sidelines of the conflict, is now considering sending Moscow lethal aid. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said it could become a “serious problem” if Beijing follows through.
