Trump chose the wrong pathJohn Herbst draws attention to the fact that Russias national security doctrine directly names the United States as its main adversary.In general, Putins team has never hidden this, but for Trump, even this is not an argument.
At the same time, there is a sense of naivety among the presidential advisers.
One of them, as you mentioned, for some reason believes that it is possible to reset relations with Russia.
This was a failed idea of the Obama administration.
This group, surrounded by Trump, ridicules Obama for being soft, criticizes Biden, but at the same time repeats the same mistake flirts with the idea of a reset, Herbst emphasized.
In his opinion, it didnt work then and it wont work now.Herbst also warned that Trumps approach, aimed at resetting relations with Russia, could be very damaging to US interests and his own reputation.
The situation is still evolving.
There is no final decision in Washington yet, but this option is undoubtedly under consideration, the exambassador added.
