The partying is underway at the Kremlin. Vladimir Putin and his inner circle are toasting each other with shots of vodka and loud singing. How do you say in Russian “Happy Days Are Here Again” ? This from townhall.com.
After the thrashing Putin gave to Biden at their “summit” meeting in Switzerland this week, the devilish former KGB operative has every reason to celebrate.
Someone asked me on a scale of 1 to 10 what score I’d give to Biden for his G7 meeting in Britain and his one-on-one meeting with Putin in Geneva.
I gave Biden a five for just showing up in Europe. Then I started subtracting – all the way down to zero, because that’s what the U.S. got from Biden’s trip.
The G7 get-together was little more than a photo op. Actually, on second thought, It was a little less than a photo op.
All they did, besides welcome Joe into their club of declining countries, was issue a weak communique after three days of posing for group photos on a beach in a posh holiday spot on the Cornish seacoast.
Biden supposedly wanted the G7 to join him and be tough on China for its human rights abuses, its takeover of Hong Kong and its non-market economic policies and practices.
But the leaders of the world’s most advanced countries – who are deep in the economic pocket of China – chickened out.
Instead of ripping into China for unleashing a virus that killed 3.5 million people around the world, they meekly urged its Communist rulers to be more transparent and show more respect for human rights.
The G7, which was more interested in showing how progressive it is, pledged to vaccinate poorer countries, create a global tax for corporations, and spend many billions to fight climate change.
The G7 was a useless three-day publicity stunt for mediocre prime ministers and presidents, but Biden’s meeting with Putin in Geneva was the diplomatic disaster it was predicted to be.
Russia and Putin got everything they wanted – and paid nothing for it. Plus, they got it all before Biden even left the ground in Washington.
We – i.e., Biden – had already shut off our oil pipeline, begun destroying our booming energy sector and okayed Russia’s natural gas pipeline to Germany.
What did Biden get from Putin – whose military is closing in on Ukraine and playing war games off the coast of Hawaii?
Nothing.
Biden let Putin off the hook about Ukraine.
Okaying the natural gas pipeline to Germany has already given Russia enormous economic and political leverage over the European Union.
Unlike Biden, Putin knows that in 2021 whoever has the oil and gas still calls the shots – and no one is going to take away that geopolitical weapon with windmills and Parisian climate treaties.
For good measure, Biden – trying to get tough? – gave Putin a list of 16 places in America that are off limits to cyberattacks by Russians in or out of the government.
Hence the title of this article: Biden’s Lose-Lose Lack of Strategy. The Biden regime has America dancing the Limbo Rock. And we’re all singing: ‘How low can you go?’
President Trump you are missed, sir. Hurry back soon, please.
