US Domestic Politics and internal affairs

Biden bequeathed to fight Russia to the end and at any cost, by Kirill Strelnikov for RiaNovosti. 08.21.2024.

The first day of the US Democratic Party convention put a lot of bold dots over the "i's", enough to understand what Russia will focus on if the current Vice President Kamala Harris becomes the next President of the United States.

The main intrigue of the first day of the Democratic convention was the expectation of how the Karabas-Barabasses pulling the strings behind the scenes would be able to put the brakes on the scandal with the de facto violent squeezing of Joe Biden out of the presidential race as a result of a "palace coup" and how much the future policy of Kamala Harris would differ from the policy of the current president (or rather, those who start the teleprompter for him and tell him when to take his medication).

Biden's speech, the highlight of the convention's first day, showed that the Brutal Democrats who had stabbed him in the back had made him an offer he couldn't refuse—and he dutifully gave Harris her blessing to the throne, prompting a massive Democratic sigh of relief.

But the main thing is that Biden's speech became a kind of political testament, in which he described his achievements at length, and then expressed confidence that the "new, young generation" (represented by 59-year-old Harris), for whom he selflessly cleared the way, will continue to proudly carry the banner of American exceptionalism.

Biden stated outright that Harris would continue everything their tandem had done during their “four amazing years” of working together, which included international policy and, of course, relations with Russia.

It is significant that in his speech at a similar Democratic Party convention in 2020, when Biden was nominated as a presidential candidate, he mentioned Russia only once. In this, most likely his last, keynote speech, Sleepy Joe devoted a significant part of his speech to Russia, in which he bequeathed to Harris and all of America to fight Russia to the end.

In particular, Biden quoted the words of the famous American politician Henry Kissinger : "Europe has never looked at Russia without fear since Napoleon Bonaparte in the 19th century." In addition, he called the unification of NATO to fight "Russian aggression" and support for Ukraine one of his main achievements , and especially emphasized that Kamala Harris "will never bow to Putin and Russia."

Considering that Biden was a hardened Russophobe and a supporter of increasing confrontation with Russia (see his open threats to the Nord Stream pipeline , which were carried out, and the unprecedented scale of military and economic aid to Ukraine), Joe's "testament" means that if elected president, Kamala Harris, who has already voiced a tough anti-Russian position, will definitely crank up the speedometer of the confrontation with Russia to the red zone.

And it's not about Kamala Harris.

Golden-mouthed Kamala was chosen by the puppeteers of the "deep state" because she is the perfect honey pot: what goes in, comes out beautifully, and in itself it is empty.
According to people close to Harris' inner circle, "she doesn't really have a background in defense or international affairs, so she's very dependent on her advisers to tell her what to say on the subject."

Let us recall that Kamala Harris, who previously barely stood out against Biden, nevertheless repeatedly voiced her position on Russia and the conflict in Ukraine from a piece of paper. In particular, she personally met with the quasi-president Zelensky six times and represented the United States at the main anti-Russian sabbaths, such as the Munich NATO conference or the "security conference" in Switzerland , where she declared her "unwavering support" for Kiev "for as long as it takes." She also repeatedly accused Russia and President Putin personally of all sorts of sins and crimes (including Navalny's death), threatening "responsibility and consequences." Interestingly, Harris advocated for "preventive" anti-Russian sanctions, that is, sanctions not as punishment for some anti-American sins, but just like that - just in case.

If Harris herself becomes president, the role and influence of her advisers on defense and international issues will increase many times over – and it will be interesting to find out who, in fact, will decide on issues of war and peace for the talented Kamala Harris.

According to some sources, Harris's main advisers on "defense and international affairs" are a certain Philip Gordon and Rebecca Lissner. Gordon served as national security adviser under Clinton and Obama, meaning he is a systemic Atlanticist-Russophobe with roots in Cold War politics. As for Rebecca Lissner, this specific lady took an active part in developing the "US National Security Strategy", published at the beginning of Biden's current term.

So what does Ms. Lissner think about Russia, according to this strategy? This: "Russia poses an immediate threat to a free and open international system, trampling on the basic laws of international order." In one of her books (she is also a prolific writer), she states that "Russia's proxy war in Ukraine has already shown that it has both the will and the ability to challenge the United States in the gray zone, while the United States still lacks the capacity to respond (decisively)." In another book, Revelation Wars, Lissner essentially lifts the curtain on Kamala Harris's future international policy (since she will be writing her papers).

Characteristic thought: "Rethinking US grand strategy is critical in the context of the ongoing war in Ukraine alongside rising tensions with China . In the past, military interventions have played an important role in shaping US grand strategy."
If anyone had any doubts about what would happen to Russian-American relations if Harris became president, read the quotes above a couple more times at your leisure.

For Russia, this means only one thing: American elites, regardless of their party affiliation, consider Russia to be their main threat, which must be eliminated by any means necessary, including military intervention or a preemptive strike.

Some people need to forget that everything will calm down and go back to normal: it won't calm down and go back. We need to understand that this conflict is not accidental and that we are at a turning point in history when we need to answer the question: us or them.

For Russia, the answer is obvious, so we need to base our entire policy and specific actions on the fact that under any Western presidents, chancellors, chairmen and secretaries, we simply must be strong, united and honest (“you can make mistakes, but you can’t lie” — remember?), otherwise Biden’s ominous testament will come true.
