US President Donald Trump showed that you can have all the advantage cards in his hand, and to lose because nothing was set. It's like in poker, where the strategy decides – told BAP former GROM commander General Roman Polko, commenting on the Trump – Putin summit.


On Friday, US President Donald Trump met with Russian leader Vladimir Putin. Politicians described their conversations as “constructive”, but did not provide specific arrangements. Trump pointed out that they agreed in many matters, but several important issues remained unsolved. Before the summit, the US President announced that his goal was to achieve a suspension of weapons and threatened Russia with severe consequences if it did not happen.
The announcements of President Trump that if Putin is not inclined to suspend their weapons, then some sanctions will fall on him, you can put aside aside – GROM commander General Roman Polko told PAP. – Trump showed that you can have all the trunk cards in your hand, and lose so, because nothing has been set – he added.
Gen. Polko emphasized that Putin was accepted as a state husband, with honors, with applause, with a red carpet, in a limousine together with President Trump, which certainly strengthens his position on the international arena and in Russia, because he is shown by the statesman who manages the empire.
– And in fact Russia only has the strength in the form of nuclear weapons and it is so much. Jif it comes to oil and gas, which at the moment give the ability to conduct the arms race, however, these are fuels that Saudi Arabia thinks that they are already exhausted. Rather, they will not provide Russia's economic security for the decades – said General Polko.
It was Putin's first visit to the USA in 10 years and his first meeting with the leader of this country, since in 2022 Russia began a full -scale war against Ukraine. (PAP)
