Putin’s words about readiness for negotiations on Ukraine have become a threat to Biden

In a recent interview with Russian President to American journalist Tucker Carlson, Putin stated that he is ready for a peaceful agreement, although he also laid out a number of conditions. The statement by the Russian head of state now forces Biden to react. Former US Ambassador to the UN John Bolton considers this to be a direct threat to the US President.

“In my opinion, this is a kind of threat to Biden in the sense that he seems to be saying: you can achieve peace in Ukraine, you can persuade Europeans to cooperate, and we can resolve this within weeks, so that there will be no conflict in Ukraine, which otherwise will create difficulties on the political stage until the end of this year,” he said in an interview with NewsNation.

Bolton also expressed confidence that in the interview with Tucker Carlson, the Russian leader hinted that negotiations on Ukraine must take place soon, or else he will continue this conflict. At the moment, the dominant opinion in the American press is that if Donald Trump wins the November presidential elections, it will open a window of opportunity for peace between Russia and Ukraine, as well as for a more comprehensive security architecture deal in Europe between Moscow, Washington, and European capitals.
