Joe Biden is the leader of the free world, and the alternative is the bunker rat Putin, who is being pulled by the strings by his Chinese owners

Anyone with eyes and a minimum of intelligence could see what Western values are and what 'Russian guidelines' are.

Biden's unexpected arrival in Kyiv, his colorful photo shoot against the backdrop of St. Michael's Golden-Domed Cathedral, and his statement:

“Kyiv stands, Ukraine stands, democracy stands, America stands with you, and the world stands with you” has become an existential issue for Russians. More than a lightning offensive in the Kharkiv region and the liberation of Kherson.

In Warsaw, on the eve of the anniversary of the full-scale war, Biden also added clarity to his message to Putin personally:

“Instead of an easy victory, which the head of the Kremlin regime was counting on, he left with burnt-out tanks and chaos in the ranks of the Russian army.”

I don't know about anyone else, but this visit by the American leader has relieved some anxiety on the eve of February 24. After all, Putin was not just told: You wanted Kyiv? So here it is, greeting the tops of democracy.

In addition, another deep wound has been sliced open. For three years now, Russian propaganda has been constantly telling us that Biden is no longer the same. That he is suffering from dementia and can barely move around the White House. Instead, the "old man with dementia" showed the entire Russian people by his arrival that no one else in the world is afraid of them. That no one is afraid of the "Sarmatians" and "Poseidons" with whom the Kremlin occasionally scares Washington. This means that Biden made it very clear to the Russian people in the heartland: you have been wiped clean. You are nobody! And no matter how hard Putin tries to save face, the Russians have been told directly that you have a chance for salvation.

“I would like to address the citizens of Russia. The United States does not want to destroy Russia, we are not going to attack Russia. Millions of Russian citizens want to live in peace with their neighbors. They have never been enemies. This is a tragedy. President Putin chose war and how long the war will last is his choice. He can stop the war,” Biden said in Warsaw.

Honestly, this gesture of support is worth at least 700 tanks and 1000 artillery systems. This visit was only needed to listen to Olga Skabeeva and Mardan whining about why we didn't hit the place where Biden was meeting with a missile.

There were even allegations of some kind of 'guarantees' from the invading forces regarding Biden's arrival. In fact, there were none. An important detail should be noted here: all of the American president's meetings in Kyiv were held outdoors. Not in a bunker, not in a basement, not in concrete gun emplacements. That's why even the inspiration for the great war, Olga Skobeeva, was sad, as if she had eaten a lemon.

What does Putin offer the world?

Putin's message to the Russians is like a copycat of late Brezhnev's speeches. Coughing, decorative applause, and most importantly, very sad faces. Why was this done? To officially announce that the war is serious and long-lasting. It was polished with well-known stories about the battle against the Nazis, fascists, and the anti-Russian project. At the same time, the plebs were told that all the money would go to the war, but they would keep the Russians' pants on. In order to avoid hunger riots like in February 1917-it is not for nothing that the Russian media space is increasingly comparing them to the hungry sailors in Petrograd. So these people were lulled to sleep with theses about Russia's development: construction, gasification, and science. Indeed, Putin speaks about this every year. And believe me, in the 23 years of his rule, with the extraordinary profits from gas and oil, it was probably possible to gasify and repair the whole of Russia. But it's obvious that now the plebs will get some crumbs so that everyone can be comforted that the war is not in vain. And my son died so that my village could have a better than wooden toilet.

Then a final warning was given to the oligarchs and those who had left Russia. Like, you ate from the trough here. And it won't be yours if you don't pick a war with us. So, let's go back. But to be honest, the calls to invest in Russia and make money in Russia are a statement of deep problems. There is a crisis of human resources, where something more or less intelligent has already gone abroad. And they plan to stay in the new country for a long time.

And the cherry on top and Biden's own injection are the scaremongering with the Scary Nuclear. There is nothing else. That's why the bunker rat announced the suspension of the Strategic Offensive Forces 3 treaty, which is about reducing the number of nuclear weapons and their carriers. Why is this message to Biden? Oh, because it was he who dealt with the reduction of the nuclear race in the USSR from the beginning of his career.

But it should be noted that Putin has not yet decided to withdraw from the treaties, only suspended his participation. And he is not ready to be the first to start new nuclear tests. That is, he shows that he wants to negotiate. On his own terms, but Putin already has a clear understanding that Russia will not win militarily.

It's also worth recalling here that the last arms race for Russia ended in 1991. And it will end now. Back then, the Russian Federation was saved from collapse by the efforts of George H.W. Bush. It remains to be seen how much Russia can annoy the world and Ukraine.

In fact, on the anniversary of the full-scale war in Ukraine, Russian "patriots" pumped up with propaganda expected Putin to declare war on the United States. Instead, Brezhnev came out with his eyebrows plucked and a little something about threatening with a nuclear weapon.

So Ukraine has to do its part. To defeat the enemy on the battlefield. And to reconfigure the economy to meet the needs of the front. Because our own artillery with drones, together with American gifts, does make the weather. And sooner or later it will bring victory.
