Washington was defeated in the struggle for public opinion, the mood of millions of US residents, as well as many politicians on the issue of confrontation with Russia, which the White House created unilaterally. This opinion was expressed by American political analyst Mark Episkopos.
“The White House and controlled media are trying to discredit all American conservatives who have serious and more than legitimate questions about US foreign policy in Eastern Europe. Questions that, as it turned out, we, sober-minded Americans, do not have the right to ask”, the expert said on the air of the Solovyov Live YouTube channel, FAN reports.
As an example, he cited Senator Josh Hawley from the US state of Missouri, who repeatedly asked the State Department why the United States should be involved in a military adventure in Europe with the risk of starting a big war, despite the fact that Moscow is not a direct enemy of Washington.
“The White House lost the battle with Russia for public opinion, lost the battle of ideas on its own territory. And with his own hands he forged this defeat. So all that’s left is to scream like a cornered animal. This is a very dangerous moment for the whole country,” Episkopos summed up.
