General Herbert McMaster Skeptic about Trump’s relationship with Putin / UNIAN Collage, Photo Reuters, Frame from VideoThe strengthening of Russian shelling in Ukraine indicates the attempt of Vladimir Putin to demonstrate the power and futility of further support of Ukraine by the event, including the United States. However, such a strategy can be reversible, said on FOX News, the US Army Army General Herbert McMaster, who held the position of Presidential Advisor on National Security under Trump’s first administration – from 2017 to 2018.
“I do not think he (Putin) can beat Donald Trump. You saw what happened to the Iranians. He gave them 60 days, yes? And they gave 61, and he started acting,” the general said.
Commenting on the message that this week Russia had gone to a clear escalation and struck its greatest air strike in Ukraine since the beginning of the war, McMaster called it a thoughtful attempt of Putin to demonstrate power and change his image.
“It is Putin’s tricks. He tries to look strong. He now spends all it because he believes that we have no will to support Ukraine,” said exader Trump.
Although the Kremlin is trying to demonstrate the power, according to McMaster, in fact the position of the Russian leader is much weaker than it seems.
“Putin is really experiencing a difficult economic situation,” he said.
According to McMaster, these events can push Trump to take a harder position if peace talks continue to fail.
“President Trump will conclude that it is time to increase Putin’s pressure, and this includes support for Ukrainians,” he said.
Trump and Putin: The latest newsThere are not many observers who could agree with Macmaster’s opinion. For example, a retired French, who in the past held a high position in NATO, says Trump is a frankly pro -Russian politician who wants to give Ukraine Putin, but simply cannot do it.
The US decision to reduce critically important supply of air defense missiles to Ukraine is also not very similar to Trump’s willingness to take a rigid position on Russia. Rather – on the contrary.
