Podcast: The New Cold War, Russia, Ukraine, NATO and Biden
Former Congressman Bill Lipinski and former Chicago City Hall reporter Ray Hanania look at the growing “New Cold War” between the United States and Russia as Vladimir Putin solidifies his power, undermines Democracy and returns his country to the old Soviet Communism in their latest podcast episode, “Two Guys on Politics.”
As Russian troops buildup along the Ukraine, President Biden has wanted them not to take any action.
Is Biden tough enough or is Putin seeing a weakness. Russian influence has grown in Syria, in Afghanistan and in Iraq creating a new front that includes Iran to Turkey.
What can Biden do to prevent the US and Russians from returning to a New Cold War that could become violent engaging NATO forces? Russian can destabilize the entire region including creating a new front in the Middle East.
