President Biden (no chicken) travels to Kyiv. Putin rages . ..
This is actually a courageous move by Biden. Putin has been lobbing missiles (which mostly have run out), made- in-Iran drones, and artillery shells at Kyiv sporadically over the past year. You never know when the next one is coming. Thousands of civilians wounded or killed. That's were last weekend's “war crimes” accusation comes from.
Putin of course is thought to be “sheltering in place” - some place other than the Kremlin. He's seldom seen in public these days. But he will be on Thursday. That's when Chairman Xi Jinping of the People's Republic of China arrives for "consultations.”
“Hey . . Xi . . . my war isn't going so well. How about some missiles or drones or something?”
“I thought you had hypersonic missiles, Vlad. And Iranian drones? This invasion thing is bad for business. You promised it would be over in a week. We sell a lot of $hit to the USA and Europe, you know. You can't even make weather balloons apparently.”
Back to Biden. Again, a courageous move, that sends all the right messages. Like if FDR went to London during the Battle of Britain, in the midst of all the Nazi Stuka dive bombing and V1 and V2 missiles.
Watch Biden's poll ratings soar. Deservedly.
Watch state sponsored Russian trolls go nuts on social media sites.
Of course, I'd be happier if NATO declared a no-fly zone over Ukraine. “To protect civilians”.
Well, maybe Biden can be persuaded on that one too.
I'm also hopeful that China has had enough of Putin and his bipolar invasions.
Here's a question we all should be asking – who does Xi back as Russia's next premier? Russia is pretty much finished as the neighborhood bully, short of launching nukes. It's about to become a wholly owned subsidiary of China.
