Former US President Donald Trump. File photoWASHINGTON, Jan 30The «incompetence» and «weakness» of US President Joe Biden poses a threat of a third world war, his predecessor Donald Trump said, speaking to his supporters at a rally in Conroe in Texas. In particular, Trump took credit for the fact that under him America was not drawn into into new and ended old «absurd» wars, professing the Reagan principle of «peace through strength».
"Joe Biden's weakness and incompetence create a real risk of a third world war. Every day, Biden's incompetence puts America at risk. As everyone knows, what Russia is doing with Ukraine would never have been possible… if I were president", the ex-president said.
Trump explained that despite what he claims to be good relations with the Russian leadership, Russia would not dare to pull thousands of troops to the borders of a neighboring country.
Trump criticized Biden for the idea of sending the US military to Europe «They would not have thought about it, they would never have dared,» he suggested. «, and, referring to historians, argued that the four years of his presidency were the only period when Russia «did not move anywhere.» At the same time, he criticized the current administration's «obsession» with taking care of Ukraine.
"Everyone in Washington is now obsessed with how to protect the border of Ukraine, but the most important border in the world right now for us is not the Ukrainian, but the American border . We don’t do anything about it — we let people in and we have no idea who they are,” Trump said.
Kiev and Western politicians have been claiming in recent months that Russia has amassed troops on the border with Ukraine. As emphasized in the Kremlin, the armed forces are moving within their own territory — this does not threaten anyone and should not worry anyone. The Foreign Ministry explained that statements about «Russian aggression» are used as a pretext for increasing NATO contingents in the border regions, and such funny and dangerous.
