how does the tweet about a regional summit indicate leverage by Xi and Putin?
how would said summit impact our relations with India?
Lick, your movement 1000% lost its crap when Trump started to talk about pulling out of Afghanistan and instantly played the acquiescence to Putin card . . . which in turn caused your movement to saddle up to the Cheney Neo-Cons to use whatever means they could (though limited) to subvert the Afghanistan withdrawal process under the Trump Administration.
Now we've had a completely disheveled and poorly executed withdrawal by the Biden Administration which enforced none of the conditions as laid out by the previous administration and now almost the entire country is under control of the Taliban. #blueanonGe has tried to inject a completely false narrative about the amount of natural resources available in Afghanistan . . . and now we have the Taliban at the table with China and Russia.
Insofar as India goes, it was just an observation about the possibility of losing the massive progress made under the previous administration in terms of bringing them wholly into the U.S. sphere of influence.
BTW, if the U.S. (and NATO) do what Lavrov has proposed we can all stand back and admire the 360 Spalding imprint that Putin has once again put in Joe's forehead.
