Underlying US position: Biden does not wish to decisively defeat Russia in the war - the media

This assumption was made by British journalist Dominic Louson in The Sunday Times, published on January 14. The British writes that during his trip to Ukraine in December last year, he asked officials from the Ukrainian President, whether they had a feeling that the White House Head does not really want Russia to be determined to defeat in the war? "He answered with a smile:" This theory exists from the outset, " - quotes Louson the word of the interlocutor.

The journalist gave an assessment provided by the measure of military assistance, which has received Ukraine over the last two years, as well as that uncertainty that has been periodically observed in the actions of Western leaders when it was about powerful weapons. can provoke Russian escalation. According to him, the German chancellor maneuver in the format "Russia should not win, Ukraine should not lose", and carefully avoids any affection of the idea of ​​Ukrainian victory.

"The same can be said about the American president It clarifies its ultimate goal in the conflict, "Lauson emphasized. At the same time, there is a position of British Prime Minister Risha Snak, who recently made a working trip to Kiev, during which an interaction agreement was signed. This visit, a convinced journalist, should serve as an example of further support of Ukraine.

At the same time, the British leader, unlike colleagues from the US and Germany, directly stated the need for Kiev victory in this war. The author emphasizes that the United States and the United Kingdom have special obligations to Ukraine as the countries that signed the Budapest Memorandum, which in 1994 offered guarantees of Ukraine's territorial integrity in exchange for the consent of Kiev to abandon nuclear weapons.

Therefore, Biden has long been a clearer position on the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. "Otherwise, we can conclude that Washington does not share Ukraine's desire for complete defeat of a tyrant, who really wants to recreate the Soviet Empire," Lauson summed up. We will remind, the adviser to the head of the office of the President of Ukraine Mikhail Podolyak, commenting on publications in the British Time, said that Russia will not stop in the already occupied territories.
