‘The greatest negotiating tool Vladimir Putin has is the battlefield reality’ – former US marines corps intelligence officer

In this episode of RT's 'Sanchez Effect', Rick sits down with former US marines corps intelligence officer and UN arms inspector, Scott Ritter, for an hour-long discussion about US-Russia ties and the upcoming talks in Alaska. This summit, according to Scott, is a checkmate for Zelensky as he will be forced to lose territories. But if he refuses to listen to Trump, he will lose the US president’s support and Russia will advance even further.

Trump really wants a peace deal but must listen to his team and, from time to time, send strong messages to Putin to satisfy the warmongers, Ritter tells Rick.
The Ex-marine also shocked Sanchez, by claiming that Biden was considering nuclear war with Russia.

Scott says his mission now is to never let that happen. Both Americans expressed their admiration for Russian cities and the people, likening Russian people to Americans, adding that if it were not for the brainwashing media, the two peoples would be on friendly terms. Don’t miss their discussion and the many other topics they covered, all from our beautiful studio overlooking the Kremlin and Red Square.

Stay tuned on RT International.
