Biden must end Cold War with Russia - US press

In the United States, it is believed that the former chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Joe Biden, is qualified enough to deal with international affairs. However, Biden's mind seemed to be stuck in the Cold War era that ended 30 years ago.

Will an ardent Russophobe be able to put aside his personal ambitions and establish normal relations with Russia? This question is asked by Doug Bandow in an article for the American edition of The American Conservative.



Democrat Joe Biden, giving an interview on television some time ago, said that the main threat to the United States is Russia. Quite a stupid judgment, the author of the article believes, especially from a person who should establish relations with other countries.

According to Bandow, Russia is an "unpleasant and authoritarian" country, and its leader, Vladimir Putin, is a "nationalist and dictator." Russia does not share the Western liberal worldview, but considers itself a part of Western Christian civilization.

Russia is opposing the collective West not ideologically, but practically, demanding that its interests be taken into account, that borders are not violated and that its status is respected. Russia has shown no interest in geopolitical conquests, while references to Moscow and Putin are causing hysteria in the West.

The author is convinced that the United States and NATO deceived Gorbachev when they promised him not to expand the alliance to the east, and now NATO soldiers are at the borders of Russia. The United States has carried out a number of "color revolutions" in the former republics of the USSR, so all of Moscow's actions fit into actions to defend its territory; it is not going to conquer anyone.

Moscow's behavior does not move it beyond international norms and does not threaten fundamental American interests

- the author writes.

The United States and Europe desperately need constructive negotiations with Russia; the Cold War is not beneficial to anyone. The US press noted that Biden must end the Cold War with Russia.

Will the ardent Russophobe Joe Biden be able to abandon the Cold War worldview and establish a dialogue with Russia, ending the confrontation?

At one time, the enemy of communism, Richard Nixon, went to Beijing and established relations with him. The author doubts that Biden will be able to repeat this by arriving in Moscow and dotting the i's. At the same time, the US hopes that he can become a president who recognizes that Russia has legitimate interests and that it will not sacrifice its security for the sake of US global hegemony.

                I don't remember the details, the consequences and reality are important. Above is an example from India, you can look at China.
                The Chinese people speak many dialects, northerners and southerners barely understood each other (except for writing - fortunately, hieroglyphs are concepts), but with the advent of information space based on radio and television, understanding became higher. External differences in people are also noticeable. Conclusions - over a long history, many peoples have been assimilated and now sincerely consider themselves to be Chinese.

                cut by the Anglo-Saxons, the list is huge.

                Why kill slaves?
                Anglo-Saxons are scum, of course, but they will not destroy slaves and work themselves.

                In the history of mankind, conquered peoples were not destroyed, but turned into slaves.
                Nothing has changed in the modern world.
                There are countries that are in slavery.
                It seems that everything is humane, but the result is the same - slavery.

                Genocide is not welcomed in the West either. Because this is done by scumbags like Hitler or Bandera.

        America certainly wants peace. But - for the girl to dance and pay. And for a long time and methodically builds on this foreign policy. The rest is secondary: the arms race, and the organization of color revolutions, and sanctions, and the imposition of "democracies" ... It is naive to expect anything else from a president.

        Trump's merits are considerable.
        He demonstrated their value in the eyes of the United States to everyone who came to his hand. That how much so to speak, bluntly.
        He gave up the transatlantic partnership - he just started to put cancer on European "partners", without democratic affection, persuasion, compliments, and even without petroleum jelly.
        He lost the Trans-Pacific Partnership, preferring bilateral agreements and thereby giving all that space to China.
        The sanctions have influenced Russia in the most beneficial way. At least they moved a little.
        And that was well - yes, we will buy everything, we have these dollars ... chickens do not peck.

        In short, Trump tore off the rose-colored glasses from half the world community, at least.
        And he continues to do this now, fighting for the result of the presidential elections and exposing this whole rotten and false system, which many (in the world) prayed for as a model / ideal and so on.

    ... Biden must end Cold War with Russia - US press

    It should be understood that this is not the "US press", but exclusively Douglas Bandow in his article.

    It should be understood that Biden owes nothing to anyone except the Americans.

    It should be understood that Biden is not nearly the biggest Russophobe of all the previous US presidents.

    Well, and most importantly, it should be understood that his rhetoric will undergo significant changes the moment he leaves the stands of the pre- and post-election rallies and sits down at the table in the Oval Office of the White House.

    So, today it is a pity for the time and effort to discuss practically speculative guesses, assumptions and reasoning of various journalists there.

    After the change of administration in the United States, one should not expect an easing of the sanctions regime, including with respect to Russia, Senator Ron Johnson warned.

    He called it a "historical tragedy" that Moscow "chose the path of unnecessary confrontation instead of integrating with the West."

    "The sanctions will remain in force regardless of who is the president, and the sanctions against the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline will remain," the Voice of America quoted him as saying.
    At the same time, he noted that Russia is "economically much weaker than the West," therefore, its influence on Western countries is "often exaggerated."

Since the end of the war under the shitcrats, relations with Russia have always only gone down, although now, it would seem, is much lower? But there will be much more to teach about human rights and democratic freedoms. Well, at least, how dare you not to let rear-wheel drive get married and hold parades in historic city centers.

              This is self-justification for members of the sect. The courts did not even try to present this argument.

                From these elections, one big epic file turned out. When one side, with the help of outright fraud and lies, was able to win the electoral votes ... now the United States cannot even morally point out now to other countries about violations in their elections ... now the Americans can be sent directly to three letters indicating their picking in their own nose.
                The United States was shown to the whole world as a country of crooks and swindlers.

    For someone in Washington and its environs, this cold war with Russia is very beneficial and these people spat on Biden and his administration.

    In one of his interviews, Soros said about the venality of political elites. Biden is no exception. The example of Ukraine shows that it is not expensive. A share in the business for his son and his family will instantly change his rhetoric, and most importantly, actions. We have good politicians wassat Soviet hardening! And in the world of capital, words mean little! Money is everything! hi

    Biden does not solve anything and will not, he should remember that in order to be in need, he still needs to go to the toilet, and not to his pants.

    Biden is handsome - he is 50 years old in this "ring" (he became a senator in 1972 at the age of 30!)
    He entered the battle three times. Last Victory - US Vice President for two terms!
    It doesn't matter when he reached the highest goal in life -77,87,97. He didn't give up!
    Nobody will say - not a fighter, a brat, a weakling.
    This is an example - never give up - and you will win!

    At the same time, the US hopes that he can become a president who recognizes that Russia has legitimate interests and that it will not sacrifice its security for the sake of US global hegemony.
    How can a person deprive himself and the military-industrial complex of taxpayers' money, as well as recognize himself and most of the media in his country as liars and fake jokes?

      There is no cold war between Russia and the United States now.
      Russia is the official enemy of the United States ... it is written in the official documents of the US STATE DEPARTMENT. hi

    Absolutely give a shit what it says. Imagine the situation, the Americans are fighting in Afghanistan, and the Soviet Union does not supply the fighters there with any MANPADS. That's right, this could not be. Because there was a cold war.

    An article in a newspaper with a circulation of 5000 copies is passed off as "US Press". I understand everything (money does not smell, info-war, ordering, etc.) but, if not conscience, then at least respect for the readers should be.
