Pompeo on Russia: ‘They don’t see President Biden as credible’
Fox News
Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo warned that the Biden administration needs to take action to ensure that Russian President Vladimir Putin takes the U.S. seriously with Russian forces amassed outside Ukraine.
"The real hard work of deterrence would have happened a long time ago, a year ago," Pompeo said. "When President Putin demanded that we give him a New START treaty extension, we gave it to him for nothing. When they had Russian cyberattacks and they shut down the Colonial Pipeline, we told them you can only attack certain sectors but 16 are off limits. When we left Afghanistan the way we did. Those were the places where the administration had the chance to establish deterrence. Putin saw this.
