What are your feelings about what you have heard about the Biden Putin summit?
Since I am sick, not sleeping, I watched Biden talk to the media. For me it was a master class in politics.
And I liked that he was truthful and practical.
It does not matter if we trust Putin. We have to understand him and his own interests. We will know if he is telling us the truth by what happens in the future. We wait, and we will know. I like that until the very end, he did not get baited into talking points the media was looking for. Some questions shouldn't be answered because they are stupid. Some IMO should be addressed by memos post media interviews instead of trying for nuance on the fly.

While Biden never mentioned his presidential predecessor, the 2018 summit in Helsinki, Finland, between Trump and Putin hung over the proceedings like a stale fart -- with both sides utterly aware of it but neither willing to acknowledge it directly. link |
