Russia may have only the worst of intentions when it comes to Ukraine, but hey! No more mean tweets!
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says he learned through the press — not any direct heads-up — that President Biden had decided to stop trying to block a Russian pipeline that Ukraine sees as a dire national security threat. w @DavidLawler10 https://t.co/CC7Q90vimb

Zelensky used an hourlong Zoom interview with Axios on Friday to beseech Biden to meet with him face to face before a June 16 summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin — offering to join him "at any moment and at any spot on the planet."

Apparently Joe Biden decided that Volodomyr Zelensky doesn’t have anything to contribute to the conversation with Vladimir Putin.
"An administration source said the White House was considering inviting Zelensky to Washington before Biden’s summit with Putin but declined to move ahead with the meeting after Zelensky's decision to replace the management of state energy company Naftogaz." https://t.co/Yh6YC9KqlZ

Guess not enough for Joe Biden to do much of anything.
Loving the new tough stance on Putin, we were missing this

I'm old enough to remember when the media would call Trump a tool of Putin…

Funny, the usual Putin screamers are very quiet about this one. https://t.co/8WrlL3ws69

All of this raises a question that’s being asked more and more these days:
What does Putin have on Biden?
