US President Joe Biden during a press conference at NATO Headquarters in BrusselsMOSCOW, 4 Apr. Joe Biden allowed himself to slip into the most heinous insults against the leader of a nuclear power with which America has never had a direct conflict, and the results of this diplomacy will be tested by the whole world, writes analyst and publicist Patrick Buchanan in an article for The American Conservative magazine. According to him In my opinion, White House aides and Cabinet members are struggling to assure reporters that «the President of the United States didn't mean what the President of the United States just said» looks especially revealing against the background of the traditions of American politics.
In the US, Biden was called the worst president in history «Indeed, when Biden characterizes America's task in the world as leadership in the global struggle between democracy and autocracy, what is the desired and predetermined fate of the leaders we oppose, if not their forced expulsion? In 2014 «The U.S. helped fund the Maidan revolution that toppled democratically elected President Viktor Yanukovych. Senator John McCain and Victoria Nuland of the State Department were seen in the square cheering on the rebels,» Buchanan recalled. : With statements like this, the American president only destroys the last diplomatic contacts between Moscow and Washington, when ties with France, Turkey and Israel are still active. «We are already paying our price. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley discovered and that their secure lines of communication with the Russian government have been cut off. Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov do not pick up the phone,» he explained. helping Ukraine In late March, during a visit to Poland, Biden said that Ukraine «will never be a victory» for Russia and that Putin «cannot remain in office. Later, the White House clarified that the president did not mean a change of power in Russia, and then Biden himself answered the corresponding question in the negative. Vladimir Putin's press secretary, Dmitry Peskov, called such rhetoric unacceptable and unforgivable for the leader of a country whose bombs killed hundreds of thousands of people around the world.
