On December 7, the leaders of the United States and Russia held a two-hour "closed-door" video meeting.
Judging from the video footage of the meeting, Putin was alone, did not even bring an interpreter, and acted extremely relaxed.
Biden was different, acting very seriously, and all kinds of murderous expressions such as gritted teeth and wide eyes were used.
Is It Putin who doesn't care, or is Biden serious?
Putin and Biden have a video meeting
Judging from Putin's performance, he did not think that he would gain anything in this meeting, more like a person who came to see the play, to see what Biden wanted to do?
But judging from Biden's performance, it seems that Putin must be subdued.
Let's first look at the statements made after the meeting between the two sides:
According to the news released by the Kremlin website on the 7th, Putin and Biden exchanged views on the implementation of the results of the Geneva talks between the two leaders, bilateral relations, as well as the situation in Ukraine, the Iranian nuclear issue, and network information security, focusing on the Ukrainian crisis and the implementation of the Minsk agreement.
Kremlin Foreign Policy Adviser Yuri Ushakov: The discussion on Ukraine took a lot of time, and our president told US President Biden in detail that kiev did not implement the relevant agreements, and Ukraine undermined the implementation of the Minsk agreement.
At the same time, he also said that the tense Russian-US relations have not made a breakthrough because of this meeting.
U.S. President's National Security Adviser Sullivan
U.S. National Security Adviser Sullivan claimed later on the 7th that if Russia takes military action against Ukraine, the United States will increase defense assistance to Ukraine and "positively respond" to possible requests for troop increases from NATO allies.
Judging from the announcements of the two sides after the meeting, it seems that there is no sense of quarreling enough, and if it is described in diplomatic terms, it means that the two sides talked "frankly".
We can imagine the situation at that time.
Both sides go straight to the theme after being shabby.
Biden said, "Maozi! What do you want! Why hoard soldiers on the border of Eastern Ukraine? ”
Putin said: "White head! It is all your NATO fault that Uzbekistan has done this, and you are trying to conquer Ukrainian territory. ”
Biden said: "The meal can be eaten casually, the words can not be talked about, we are good friends of Ukraine, we have common values, so we support Ukraine." ”
Putin said: "Believe you are a ghost! Bad old man! What does NATO mean by its further eastward expansion and the deployment of offensive weapons systems in Russia's neighbors? ”
Biden said, "Maozi! You don't count your words, breaking the Minsk agreement first. ”
Putin said: "Who destroyed first? You bad old man did not come to the stage before, we are fine here, as soon as you came up to Wudong, you were nervous, whose problem do you say? I'm starting to miss Trump now. ”
Biden said, "Maozi! What did you say? You're looking for ballast, aren't you? ”
Putin
Seeing Biden's very unhappy look, Putin's heart is still very comfortable, thinking, this time I appeared alone, the purpose is to explore your bad old man's bottom. I'm alone, the bad old man can only talk to me, and no one else dares to interject, just to drain your energy and see how your body is.
Putin said: "President Biden, you can't talk like this, you first looked for trouble, as soon as you came to power, you came to my house to make trouble, and then you told the outside world that I was hairy, said that I eat human flesh, and gave me a hairy mouth name. ”
Biden said, "Don't you remember 8 years ago? I've always remembered that slap. ”
Putin said: "Bad old man! It turns out that you are a villain, so you don't have to talk about Luo? ”
The scene of the rip-off goes on until the end...
Isn't that ridiculous? I also think that the two sides are originally like this.
Judging from the expressions of the United States and Russia, the Ukrainian issue is the main topic of discussion between the two sides, but the Ukrainian issue is related to Russia's national security and has no need to talk about it at all.
Russian army
On November 30, Putin warned that NATO should not deploy missiles in Ukraine and that Russia would react strongly once the "red line" was crossed. Russia's new hypersonic missiles can hit those who give orders in 5 minutes.
After seeing the "red line" drawn by Putin, Biden was very upset, and said that he would not accept the "red line" drawn by anyone under the situation in Ukraine, and hoped to discuss the issue of not allowing an invasion of Ukraine during the "long talk" with Putin.
Immediately afterward, the United States joined forces with France, Germany, Britain, and Italy to establish a united front, emphasizing that diplomacy was the only way to resolve the Conflict in Ukraine.
Then he threatened Putin that if Russia dared to order an "invasion" of Ukraine, the United States would kick Russia out of the international financial system and impose direct sanctions on its "closest" partners with Western allies.
Putin is very clear that nothing will happen as long as NATO does not deploy missiles in Ukraine.
But Biden's bite of Russia's "invasion" of Ukraine as soon as he came up was not on a tune at all.
If things are abnormal, there will be demons!
Biden
The "invasion" of Ukraine was done by the United States itself, and then through the Media and intelligence agencies of the United States, it was hyped up to make the world feel that there was such a thing, so that the allies were nervous, NATO had to mobilize soldiers and horses to cope, Russia also had to mobilize troops to cope, and the situation became tense.
Biden suddenly made two moves, one move "out of nothing" and the other "blossoming on the tree", confusing the Ukrainian bureau and becoming a chip for Biden to negotiate the asking price with Putin.
Therefore, the Ukrainian issue is a cover, and Putin himself participated in the meeting alone to tell the world that there is no such thing and does not care at all.
So the question arises, what problem does Biden want to solve with the chips of ukraine?
Open a passage to Afghanistan from Russian-controlled Central Asia to provide supplies and support to the Islamic State. In order to open up this passage, the United States has gone to China and Pakistan to talk, and the reply is not allowed, and can only fight Russia's idea.
The Afghan Taliban
So why would Putin go crazy with Biden? Russia also seeks favors the United States in the Nord Stream-2 project. Half of the Nord Stream-2 project was funded by Gazprom, while the other 50 percent was 10 percent each by the French Ongee Group, the Austrian Oil and Gas Group, the Royal Dutch Shell, the German Uniper Company and the German company Winters hall. Without U.S. approval, the project, which costs more than 9.5 billion euros, would have to hang out there.
Putin's idea is that the conditions are reciprocal, the United States abandons the sanctions of the Nord Stream-2 project, and Russia allows the United States to open a passage to Afghanistan in Central Asia.
In Biden's view, such conditions are not equal at all, the Nord Stream-2 project is a tens of billions of dollars, and the Islamic State is not worth that much money at all. Moreover, the "Nord Stream-2" project is income for Russia, and the Islamic State is paying for the United States. So Biden turned Ukraine into a chip out of nothing, and wanted to exchange it with Putin through a cheap chip out of nothing.
Nord Stream-2
The passage to Afghanistan can be said to be a gift from Pakistan and China to Putin, otherwise Putin would not have any bargaining chips at all, and Putin would not have wasted his only chip, so Putin would not have negotiated other quid pro quos with Biden.
The problem now is that Biden went too deep into the drama and made the Ukraine problem like it was real.
Of course, Biden also wants to mess up Europe, help the dollar flow back, and achieve a new round of dollar harvest.
So for some time to come, Biden will continue to play the Ukrainian card.
Playing cards in this way also has side effects, which will consume a lot of U.S. diplomatic resources and lose other places. For example, in India, the United States lost it.
Putin had made billions of dollars in India before he met with Biden.
Biden really stole chicken this time and did not become a corrosive rice, and it seems that Biden is going to make things yellow again.
I haven't done a thing since I came to power, and how difficult it is for Biden to do it.
