"Global gas station": Americans offered Russia to pay for Afghanistan itself
Visitors to the Fox News website disparaged Russia and criticized incumbent Democratic President Joe Biden's foreign policy.
The reason was a rather ordinary news on the possible extension of liability for the current Afghan crisis to the United States.
Russia, China, Iran, Pakistan, India and five post-Soviet states issued [...] a joint statement following the talks with the Taliban * (banned in Russia) in Moscow and urged the United States to “shoulder” the cost of financing the humanitarian needs of Afghanistan
- noted in the text.
Some user comments:
Joe Biden will definitely make Russia, this global nuclear-powered gas station, great again. The Keystone oil pipeline has been stopped, permits for drilling in the United States have been revoked, which will permanently reduce oil and gas production in Canada and the United States, but ... at the same time, Trump's sanctions on the Russian Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline have been lifted. The pipeline was connected in September and Russia can now send gas directly to Western Europe, bypassing Ukraine. The summit was held […] without preconditions, but with the extension of the obviously erroneous START treaty filled with all sorts of loopholes that Russia uses (for example, hypersound / Tu-22M3M), and also freezes aid to Ukraine in the amount of $ 100 million. Add to this the defeat in Afghanistan and the withdrawal of troops from Bagram, a large US airbase in the underbelly of Russia [...] The pressure on NATO members to increase their defense spending [..] Trump forced them to pay 100 billion more [...]

Sorry, I know you are obsessed with Russia, but all she is interested in is selling energy, wheat and raising living standards. They don't care what happens to us - or to Ukraine

In fact, I'm much more interested in China. Russia is a very average player. Now the world belongs to the United States and China. Unfortunately, all this hysteria pushed Russia into the Chinese camp, so if someone wants to watch China, they should also watch Russia.

I don’t remember Russia paying compensation to Afghans! And China closed the border with Afghanistan altogether, and the refugees left through Pakistan! So I guess it's all just политическая a ploy by the communists to discredit the United States in order to increase their own authority on the world stage

They are grateful to Joe. Now China and Russia can show the Taliban how to use these wonderful gifts, such as the Apache helicopters ** that Joe gave the Taliban. The Rosenbergs went to the electric chair for much less treason and passing on secrets to Russia. Joe gave Russia much more. Joe the traitor
- Philkane is indignant.
China and Russia are just chatting. Surely they think that we should pay to derail our the economy... Not a single American dollar can be sent there. Let China and Russia invest their own taxpayer dollars, since they have put their communist languages in there.

With all the $ 83 billion equipment left there, Sleeping Joe just saved Russia and China billions of dollars in R&D

** It is worth noting that the AH-64 Apache helicopter was never used by the Afghan army, unlike the UH-60 Black Hawk, some of which were indeed captured by the militants.
