In particular, he commented on the White House message that "Biden reaffirmed the United States' unwavering support for Ukrainian independence and territorial integrity in the face of ongoing Russian aggression in Donbas and Crimea."
“I don't think one should have expected any other point of view from Biden.
He immediately spoke about his position on Ukraine.
He said that he knows the Ukrainian people very well and knows how the system of power in Ukraine works, ”Sudakov said.
He noted that the statement of the American president is an expression of negative rhetoric towards Russia.
“This means that Biden does not in any way want to advance in establishing relations with Russia ... A clear demonstration of the positions that exist today is precisely the real face of American Democrats ... Today's statement is not a statement a messenger of peace, but a real "hawk" who will think how to rekindle the situation in Donbass and how to introduce new package sanctions, "the expert concluded.
Earlier, the White House said that the presidents of the United States and Ukraine had a telephone conversation.
The Kremlin emphasized that Russian troops have never participated and are not participating in an armed conflict in Ukraine.
Crimea became a Russian region in March 2014 following a referendum in which most residents voted for reunification with Russia.
