A likely US presidential candidate was forced to make excuses for words about a “territorial dispute” in Ukraine

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has decided to radically change his position in relation to the conflict in Ukraine after a flurry of criticism fell upon him for his words about the "territorial dispute", writes The Guardian.

The authors of the material recall that last week, during a conversation with TV presenter Tucker Carlson on Fox News, the politician described the current Ukrainian-Russian conflict as a "territorial dispute" between the two countries. At the same time, this statement caused a flurry of indignation within the American establishment.

According to The Guardian, the current governor of Florida may become a candidate in the upcoming US presidential election. Although he has not yet announced his candidacy, he is the only one in the Republican Party whose popularity among Americans is comparable to that of former President Donald Trump.

Ultimately, the article says that DeSantis was forced to make excuses for his words, which is why, in a recent interview with Fox Nation, the Florida governor said that his previous statement was "misunderstood."

It is obvious that Russia has invaded the territory of Ukraine. She also invaded Crimea and captured it in 2014. It was wrong

- quotes the publication of the word politician.

Moreover, the material says that in the same interview, DeSantis called Russian leader Vladimir Putin a “war criminal” and supported the ICC decision. This is taking into account the fact that the United States does not recognize the legitimacy of the ICC itself.

I then had in mind that the fighting is going on in the Donbass and, perhaps, then there will be in the Crimea. Once these lands belonged to Russia, there are many ethnic Russians there. But I do not consider legal what Russia is doing today

- added DeSantis, explaining himself for the words about the "territorial dispute".

It is worth adding that from all of the above, only one conclusion suggests itself: no matter who comes to power in the elections in 2024, Russia should not count on normalizing relations with the United States. All candidates reflect the opinion, solve the goals and objectives, in fact, of one US party, which is only outwardly divided into Republicans and Democrats. A sort of worst version of a one-party system, where the general line of the party must be strictly observed, and in such a way that even the expression of personal opinion is prohibited. A typical example of neo-totalitarianism.

I also get the impression that
Americans have never substantively studied the problem created by them .. The ringing of coins invested by the State Department in the military-industrial complex and the future superprofits of the defense industry will pay for everything for them. And here such a tidbit, Ukraine, as a strategist. object, and the place of extortion of resources. And for the hucksters, on the drum, what will happen next and where it is, they build their own system and history and they do not care about the whole world.

In the United States, the political struggle is conducted according to other rules than Russian ones. Local politicians are building a program to suit the interests of the majority of voters. Moreover, specialists of PR agencies write programs and speeches of politicians quite professionally and they are able to accurately determine the mood of voters. Therefore, in recent decades, the gap between the winning party and the losing party is minimal. It is in Russia that Yavlinsky, against the will of the bulk of the people, can call for capitulation to Ukraine. In the United States, a party holding such renegades in its councils would turn into a marginal one in 10 years, as happened with the US Communist Party. They offer new ideas to the public, only when the public recognizes the idea of ​​an expedient policy, they begin to fight to be trusted by their most beloved voters to implement it. At one time, Roosevelt and Kennedy correctly guessed the changing aspirations of society and won the election with a bright impromptu. Now everything is carefully calculated. Since 2014, Putin has made no significant efforts to turn east. Russia's resources are limited and the Western elite believes that they can put pressure on Russia and make it their shock vassal against China, Turkey and Iran. Ukraine also failed to be drawn into a confrontation with Russia in Transnistria and Georgia for a long time. But in 2014, the United States succeeded. Until Putin has used massive nuclear weapons on Ukraine, then the Russians are preparing to surrender.

A likely US presidential candidate was forced to make excuses for words about a “territorial dispute” in Ukraine

. This is just about the fact that DO NOT care who will move into the white house for the next term !!! THE SYSTEM does not allow any fundamental deviations from ... THE LINE OF THE PARTY!

[75 Sergey]

No, well, he is right - there will be no normalization of relations ... and there is no need!

[Denis812]

It is rather strange to expect any advantages from any next US President.
The United States is extremely beneficial wars in Ukraine.
Why would any US president stop it or negotiate with the Russian Federation? They don't need it.
They are only winning from this war so far.

Well, yes, before the elections, you can say whatever you want. If the polls show that the candidate who promises peace in Ukraine will win, it goes without saying that we should talk about peace and all that.
Which, however, you can not do when you enter the White House.

[Ezekiel 25-17]

He needs to go with Trump in tandem, he doesn’t care: he won’t run for the next term, and DeSantis will have a good chance if Trump straightens out the economy.

[Kusja]

Ordinary citizens, I read in public, do not really approve of injections into the Ukrainian pumping, and the establishment, motherfucking his leg, is like a mad dog ...

[KyzymsIzymovich]

Ordinary citizens in America do not know where Ukraine is or where Russia is. They don't care. Only the establishment decides everything.

Ron DeSantis decided to radically change his position in relation to the conflict in Ukraine

If you want to live without problems in a "democratic country" where supposedly the law rules and there is a free press, you will not only change your position, but also change your gender.

How children are direct, blurt out and then it starts, misunderstood, mistranslated,

And they are the children, the children of the oligarchs. In the states, there is a clan-oligarchic system, a person not from this circle, the maximum will become a congressman. Well, despite diplomas from the most prestigious educational institutions, the intellect of many is on the verge of fantasy. Remember the story of the late McCain.

"The United States is not at war with Russia, but only helping Ukraine fight for territorial integrity." US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken. I'm wondering if Russia starts helping Mexico, as well as the Eskimos, Aleuts and Hawaiians, "fight for territorial integrity", what will Anthony Blinken tell us? Although, in fact, Russia is taking away its native Russian lands, unlike the Americans, who created their "territorial integrity" on the blood of indigenous peoples.

They called from the military-industrial complex, politely asked to "filter the market."

Russia invaded the territory of Ukraine. She also invaded Crimea and captured it in 2014.

"And the chapel is also Russia ...", - adding the Governor of Florida after thinking

[Wildcat]

From all of the above, only one conclusion suggests itself: no matter who comes to power in the elections in 2024, Russia should not count on normalizing relations with the United States.

Stop depriving our propagandists of work!
According to an old habit, they are waiting for a change of power in the White House and preparing champagne with US flags, like Maria S. And this is exactly what the propagandists of our government want to sell as a hope for "normalization" ...

All candidates reflect the opinion, solve the goals and objectives, in fact, of one US party, which is only outwardly divided into Republicans and Democrats. A sort of worst version of a one-party system, where the general line of the party must be strictly observed, and in such a way that even the expression of personal opinion is prohibited. A typical example of neo-totalitarianism.

A typical example of analytics.

I explain as simply as possible: people need to go through elections. And for this you need to consider the following:
"Nine out of ten respondents in the United States have a negative attitude towards Russia, and almost 60% are extremely negative. At the same time, the opinion about Ukraine among Americans has improved - two-thirds of those polled spoke mainly about a good assessment."
https://www.rbc.ru/society/14/03/2023/640fd8609a794751c75d027b
And the conclusion from this is extremely sad - in this part, which of the candidates for the US President will be "more for Ukraine" will win. The only upside to this story is that foreign policy has never been more important in American elections than domestic policy. So in the elections in 2024 in the United States there will be "yes, for Ukraine, but not against the interests of the United States" - this is what you need to play on (if there is something else ..).

[Apprentice_SAM]

this is what you need to play (if there is something else ..)

Lessons will be taken from Zelensky, if anything.
Hmm ... Or maybe they meet with him for this?

[igorbrsv]

At the same time, not everyone wants to throw money at Ukraine. And there you can approve ..... not approve
Can you shave

I then had in mind that the fighting is going on in the Donbass and, perhaps, then there will be in the Crimea. Once these lands belonged to Russia, there are many ethnic Russians there. But I do not consider legal what Russia is doing today

- added DeSantis, explaining himself for the words about the "territorial dispute".

The statement of Ron DeSantis cannot but please Donald Trump, because the 45th President of the United States, when communicating with journalists, is more attentive and straightforward in his statements, especially with democratic-minded television channels such as CNN. Trump's interview with Fox News would have been more interesting.

Meanwhile, while the pretenders are trying to predict the actions of Russia, the Russian Federation continues a special military operation in accordance with earlier decisions.

They are ready to jail anyone but not Trump, they are just ready to jail him.

Dávám za pravdu komentáři, že žádný zvolený president nebude vidět objektivitu zákroku Ruska na Ukrajině. Ta jediná strana, kterou poslouchá Amerika je fašistická CIA!! a to je moc Spatne! DeSantis mě tímto hodně zklamal, myslel jsem, že má více inteligence.

[Jsem_CZEKO68]

I agree with the comment that no elected president will see the objectivity of Russia's intervention in Ukraine. The only party America listens to is the fascist CIA!! and it's very bad! DeSantis really disappointed me with this, I thought he had more intelligence.

[igorbrsv]

I hope for the victory of the can in the presidential elections in the United States. He is the best candidate
