'He Had No Idea How to Talk to Putin:' Trump Attacks Biden In Face-Off With Harris

New Delhi: Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump on September 11 claimed that Russian President Vladimir Putin does not respect US president Joe Biden and he is unable to push Putin towards a negotiaton deal to end the Ukraine-Russia war.

Trump attacked Biden during the highly-anticipated ABC News Presidential debate while he faced-off Vice President Kamala Harris.

Trump claimed that had he been the President the Russia-Ukraine war would not have even started. He criticised the Biden administration over its inability to de-escalate the tense situation and this has led the world to stare at World War 3. Commenting on Biden, he said, "We have a president who doesn't know if he is alive." He stressed on ending the over 2 year-long war.

Trump said, "I know Putin very well, he respects me. Putin doesn't respect Biden. I will settle the war as president elect. I will speak to both the parties and get it settled. He built his troops after I left. Biden had no idea how to talk to Putin. It's getting worse and we are dealing with WW3. We don't even know if he is the president. We have a president who doesn't know if he is alive. It is in US' best interest if we stop the war."

Putin, a Dictator Who Would Eat You for Lunch: Kamala Harris

Following Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump 's remarks in which he claimed that US Presdient Joe Biden is a 'bad negotiator' in relation with Russia-Ukraine war, Vice President Kamala Harris reacted sharply to his claims by accusing the former of coddling strongmen like Russia's president. She said former US President would “give up for the sake of favour” from Vladimir Putin, who would "eat you for lunch."

Harris said, "Putin would be sitting in Kyiv with his eyes on the rest of Europe, starting with Poland," Harris said in her presidential debate with Trump, noting “how quickly you would give up for the sake of favor and what you think is a friendship with what is known to be a dictator who would eat you for lunch.”

In the first face-off among the presidential candidates, discussion on several topics including inflation and the economy, abortion rights and the southern border were held as they tried to win over the voters who could ultimately decide the elections. The duo traded barbs in heated showdown.
