US President Joe Biden incorrectly assesses the state of the Russian economy, which can lead to dangerous consequences. This error of the head of the White House called Bloomberg.
As noted by the American edition, the view of Byyden that the Russian economy is based solely on the export of oil and gas, is incorrect and does not reflect the real picture, although in general is quite popular among US politicians. “Russia is not an export superpower, if you drop oil and gas. She has a fairly large domestic market to support one of the world’s largest and, which is important, the most sustainable economies,” writes Bloomberg.
The article states that such words by Bayden about the Russian economy, if they really reflect his thoughts, indicate that the US President disinforced or made the wrong conclusions from the reports that he was provided. Moreover, such an approach can bring the American leader of trouble in the future and break Washington trap.
So, resembles the publication, at one time Barack Obama, taking the post of head of the White House, also repeatedly expressed Russia as a regional power. As a result, his policy was short-sighted and created problems for the American establishment, Bloomberg believes.
In July, Biden stated that Russian President Vladimir Putin had the problems that he knows, and this “makes it more dangerous.” According to him, the Russian leadership is subject to difficulties due to the fact that the Russian economy relies exclusively on oil and nuclear weapons. The Kremlin said that the American president demonstrates the erroneous knowledge and understanding of modern Russia.
