Senator of the Russian Federation Alexei Pushkov drew attention to the fact that the confrontation between Washington and Moscow has now become an important part of the domestic policy of the United States.
“On the eve of the autumn elections to the US Congress, Biden cannot “give up”. At the same time, he can take tactical steps in relations with Russia in order to keep the situation under control. Getting it out of control in the form of a direct military conflict is not in the interests of the United States, since they are not ready to fight for Ukraine, no matter how the American media wind up the pre-war atmosphere”, Pushkov said in his Telegram channel.
The senator emphasized that the United States is ready to maintain and even increase tension for quite a long time. According to Pushkov, the transfer of the US military to Eastern Europe fully confirms this assumption.
As previously reported, US President Joe Biden decided to send a number of American military personnel to the Eastern European countries of the North Atlantic Alliance.
