US President Donald Trump does not call Vladimir Putin a dictator because he has to make deals with him. Trump stated this in an interview with John Decker, a correspondent for the American media group Gray Media, writes RBC-Ukraine.

According to Trump, in international politics it is important not to insult those with whom one has to negotiate. That is why he considers it inappropriate to use harsh statements against the Russian leadership.

“I don’t call Putin a dictator because I have to make deals with people, so I don’t go around calling them names. I am a master of making deals. I have always been a very skilled negotiator. It is thanks to deals that I became very wealthy. So I don’t go around mocking people,” the US president said.

Trump is convinced that public insults and mockery of leaders of other states can complicate the achievement of diplomatic agreements.

He contrasted his own approach with the policies of former US President Joe Biden, whom he accused of constantly mocking Russia.

According to Trump, such behavior was one of the factors that led to the war in Ukraine.

“Biden constantly mocked Russia. He said it was a ‘gas station with nuclear weapons’ or something similar. But you can’t talk like that to a person who has a huge nuclear arsenal. This is one of the reasons why this war started,” the US president stated.

At the same time, he did not provide specific evidence that Biden's mockery was the cause of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

    У расіі нават пенсіянеркі кажуць, што "мордочка" Добі падобная да пісы пуціна. Ужо так, як пуцін сам сябе абражае, то ніякі Байдэн не дадумаецца яго абразіць.

    "Дыктатар" не абраза, а назоўнік, які цалкам адпавядае характару праўлення Пуціна. Абраза зусім іншая рэч, а менавіта тое, як мы называем тыя рэчы, якія не адпавядаюць рэчаіснасці, але выдаюць нашыя негатыўныя эмоцыі да аб'екту. Пуцін = дыктатар - не эмоцыя, а даўно вызначаны і прыняты ў навуке тэрмін. Але такія як Трамп вельмі далёкія а гэтага, а таму шчыра блытаюць навуковую тэрміналёгію існасці са сваім заўсёды негатыўным эмацыйным станам ва ўспрыняцці рэчаў навокал.
    Трамп сам хутка стане дыктатарам, калі яго не спыніць народ Амерыкі. Ён метадычна намагаецца знішчаць інстытуты дэмакратыі ў ЗША. Засталася адная надзея, што новы склад Кангрэсу зламае гэтую трампаўскую тэндэнцыю і паставіць на месца правараваўшыгася банкрута і хлуса.

    Трамп лёг цалкам, прагнуўся ў зюзю. Гэта відавочна. Лукашэнка так не прагнуўся як Трамп. Гэта ганьба 100%. Прэзыдэнт США не можа так сцяліцца пад расейскага дыктатара.
