Paul Craig Roberts: Sooner or later Russians will learn it’s a mistake to trust the West
Good-neighborly relations between Russia and America were not even considered in Geneva.

Chairman of The Institute for Political Economy Mr. Paul Craig Roberts on the results of the meeting in Geneva between the Presidents of the two powers — Putin and Biden. In his opinion, real progress in the relationship between Russia and the United States is blocked as long as Washington has hegemonic intent. As long as the White House is hostile to a multi-polar world it’s hard to see real progress in improving the relations.

The Presidents have had their separate press-conferences, clearly underscoring the existing differences. Unexpected for many, one of the main outcomes of the summit has become the U.S.-Russia Presidential Joint Statement on Strategic Stability. According to the old diplomatic tradition, a summit without a joint statement (or a communique) or a joint press-conference should officially be considered a failure. It includes such phrases as “able to make progress”, “our shared goals of ensuring predictability in the strategic sphere”, “reducing the risk of armed conflicts and the threat of nuclear war”, “commitment to nuclear arms control” and even “we reaffirm the principle that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought”.

So, the Joint Statement is there.

But do these words mean the sincerity of desires and actions? - the expert asks.

On this and other collisions of the summit please watch in the program "The Open Studio".
