... policy towards Russia would have been of a similar nature. After the start of the military operation, Washington would have unleashed a “tsunami of sanctions” on Russia regardless of who was in the Oval Office.
Trump's possible victory in the 2024 elections will change little for Russia. Trump is known as an opponent of arms control. However, its erosion has continued under Biden, and both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris can drive the last nail into the arms control coffin. Trump will more actively lobby for the promotion of American energy resources in the European market, especially since the EU's policy of sanctions against Russia will ...
