Biden and his regime are trying to make conflict where it is not.
They need a distraction, need a conflict for multiple reasons.
I am sure the CIA is more than trying their best behind the scenes and on the ground over there to make it happen.
Biden and the West have zero cards in this so called negotiation with Putin.
Russia owns Europe's energy supply and can cut it off at anytime
Russia also owns a lot of U.S. treasuries and gold.
From reading foreign sites it seems Putin is laughing at Biden when they talk.
