US presidential candidate: should make "significant concessions" to Putin. Ramaswamy | USA | Candidate
According to the website of Newsweek on the 4th, a Republican presidential candidate in the United States has called for "significant concessions" to be made to Putin.
It is reported that Vivek Ramaswamy, the Republican presidential candidate for 2024, said on the 4th that he agreed to make "major concessions" to Russian President Putin to end the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
The Russia-Ukraine conflict that began in February last year is still a major topic in the 2024 US election. The campaigners are trying to prove that they are strong leaders in foreign policy. Republicans have been criticizing President Biden's handling of this conflict, stating that providing billions of dollars in military aid to Ukraine is not beneficial to Americans and that these funds should be used domestically.
Businessman Ramaswamy promised that if elected, he would "not spend an extra penny on a war that does not affect our interests.".
When asked about his position on the Russia-Ukraine conflict on the morning of the 4th, ABC News Channel anchor Martha Radac said, "Don't you think it is not in our interests for Russia to take over Ukraine?"
Ramaswamy explained that although he does not believe that Russia's occupation of Ukraine is "desirable," he does not consider it a "top priority" for US foreign policy.
It is reported that the Republican candidates are generally critical of Biden's handling of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, but they have put forward various ideas on how to handle the conflict.
Former President Trump, who currently leads the polls, blamed Biden for the conflict, claiming that if he won re-election in 2020, war would not have occurred. He repeatedly promised to engage in dialogue with Putin in order to end the war within 24 hours.
Florida Governor Ron De Santis said that participating in the Russia-Ukraine conflict is not an "important national interest" of the United States. He called the conflict a "territorial dispute".
