Boasting on Labor Day his great accomplishments to a Steel Workers Union in Philadelphia, 80-year-old President Joe Biden faces the unholy alliance of Russian President Vladimr Putin and North Korean President Kim Jong-un. Biden fierce threats of the most punishing sanctions against Putin in the run-up to the Ukraine war amounted to nothing as Putin marched the Russian army into Ukraine to stop Biden’s military build-up. Biden talked to steel workers about his great wisdom that looks more like senility than any kind insight in domestic and foreign affairs. Biden’s $100 billion proxy war in Ukraine has cost the U.S. much more than taxpayer cash: Biden has trashed U.S. credibility abroad by driving Russia, China and North Korea in a close economic, military and strategic alliance. Biden’s hostilily toward Russia, China and North Korea drove them into an alliance.
It’s undeniable that Biden’s decision to join Ukraine’s proxy war against the Kremlin has far more consequences than depleting the U.S. Treasury and stockpiles of munitions. Biden’s proxy war has decimated U.S. foreign policy, no longer enjoying the hard-fought diplomacy and détente with America’s adversaries. Under his predecessor 77-year-old former President Donald Trump, the U.S. government had functional relations with Russia, China and North Korea. Two-and-half-years-later, relations with the three major adversaries are the worst in U.S. history. Now Kim Jong-un travels to Vladivostok to meet Putin to discuss artillery munitions for the Russian fight in Ukraine. State Department and Pentagon officials can only look on in horror with where Biden has taken U.S. foreign policy. Trump had all three countries at least cooperating with Washington.
When Trump was president the corrupt Democrat-media establishment accused Trump of Russia, Chinese and North Korean collusion, falsely accusing the former president of nefarious ties to all three countries. Instead of applauding Trump for his exemplary foreign relations, they accused Trump of trying to destroy NATO. All Trump wanted was European countries to pay their fair share of NATO defense funding. Yet to the Democrat-controlled press, it was only about Trump treating U.S. allies badly. Now anyone with a shred of objectivity sees the real damage to Biden’s presidency. He’s destroyed any future of nonproliferation or arms control with the U.S. in a pitched battle with the Russian Federation. Too consumed by politics, the U.S. press doesn’t dare call Biden out for pushing the doomsday nuclear clock closer to midnight, with Putin talking once again about nukes.
Instead of Biden working with Russia to end the Ukraine War, he went along with Ukraine’s 45-year-old former comedic actor Volodymyr Zelensky in making catastrophic blunders for Ukraine. Zelensky refused to negotiate an end to the 19-months old conflict and went to war against the Kremlin pulling the U.S. into his quagmire. Since the war started Feb. 24, 2022, Zelensky has lost 25% of Ukraine’s sovereign territory, including Ukraine’s most strategic Black Sea ports. Now the war is about Zelensky getting back to the status quo before the conflict of Russia occupying Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk. Zelensky’s military blunders have sucked the U.S. into a proxy war with Russia, ending post WW II diplomacy and détente with Russia. No longer can Biden work toward a more peaceful world by controlling the spread of nuclear weapons while he seeks to topple Putin’s reign of power.
So, without any nonproliferation strategy, Putin can now make a deal with Kim to sell the rogue North Korean regime for nuclear technology in exchange for more artillery munitions depleted in the Ukraine War. “If Russia pays in oil and food, it can revive the North economy, which in turn could then also strengthen North Korea’s weapons system. It is an extra source of income for them that they didn’t have,” said Yan Uk, fellow at the Asian Institute of Policy Studies. Uk says it opens up more dialogue, cooperation and trade between Russia and North Korea. What’s the State Department or Pentagon supposed to do now to stop the economic, military and strategic cooperation between Moscow and Pyongyang? Biden’s proxy war against the Kremlin had opened up a can of worms for U.S. foreign policy. No longer can the U.S. count on any cooperation from the Russian Federation.
When it comes to the 2024 election, four more years of Biden anticipates hostility woth Russia, China and North Korea, or any other U.S. adversary, like Iran, looking to gain strategic advantage over the United States. Instead of taking his foreign policy advice from Zelensky, Biden should face impeachment not for his family’s financial shenanigans but for endangering U.S. national security. Watching the slow moving train wreck of Russian-North Korean economic, military and strategic cooperation should wake every American up to how Biden has endangered U.S. national security and world peace. Never before has the U.S. and world faced the very real prospects of nuclear war. Putin isn’t joking that more warmongering from the U.S. and NATO puts the world closer to nuclear Armageddon. Biden has pushed the world closer to nuclear annihilation.
