Is A Putin - Biden Summit In The Works?

The two presidents last spoke on December 31.  

The Guardian: Ukraine: US offers Putin summit with Biden in effort to stop slide to war 

Move comes amid ‘frank and substantive’ talks in Geneva and announcement by Russia of new military exercises 

The US has offered to hold a summit between Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin as a last-ditch effort to stop the slide to a new war in Europe, as Russia continued to build up its forces along the Ukraine border and announced new naval exercises in the Black Sea. 

The US secretary of state, Antony Blinken, said Washington and its allies were also ready to respond in writing next week to Russian demands on the future of Nato and European security, which Moscow has said must be addressed to avoid it taking “military measures”. 

But, speaking in Geneva where he held talks with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov, Blinken repeated the US and Nato position there could still be no compromise on the central issue of the right of Ukraine and other countries to join Nato in the future.

Bad idea. We do not want to give Putin an excuse to go to war. Can imagine spending any length of time alone in a room with Biden. The horror. The Horror!

Just wondering. Is there a book on diplomacy or a class called diplomacy 101, where it says you must call other world leaders bad names?

Russia invaded Finland in 1939.
Russia invaded Poland in 1939.

Russia invaded Estonia in 1940.
Russia invaded Latvia in 1940.
Russia invaded Lithuania in 1940.

Russia took land from Romania in 1940.

Did FDR have bad words for Russia?

How is it okay for FDR to align with Russia against a threat, but not Trump?

FDR aligned with Russia: yes. It was called WWII
and we also aligned with China. And when WWII ended we entered the cold war with US versus Russian (spheres of influence).
Now, Missy: name one time that Trump ever said a bad word or issued a threat to Russia or Putin. Name it. And no, the sanctions put in place DESPITE Trump not wanting them.

So patchcord you're privy to all of Trump's presidential communications with Russia, how is that patchcord?

If Trump had made an alliance with Russia against China

It would have been similar (not exactly like) than FDR's with Russia of 1941,

Only difference s this Russian has fewer warts.


Is there some reason FDR could have an alliance with Russia but Trump cannot. is it because back then Russia had more warts?

Freddie all bluster and no brains.
