American officials will hold talks “this week” with Russian leaders about negotiations to release former Marine Paul Whelan, White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan said Monday.

Exactly! Biden desperately needs some good press and we are going to buy it for him. Quite ironic.
Probably, he already gave back the blue chip prisoner, and got nothing for him.
All The Big Guy will have to do is agree to buy 100 billion barrels of Russian oil at $140 a barrel and the Marine will be home.
The administration staggers from one historical FUBAR for the ages to the next seamlessly. It’s really something to see.
If I were in Alaska I would worry about any trade these clowns negotiate.
He will give them eastern Ukraine in exchange.
If I am the Ukies, I would watch my back.

Germany has a Russian hit man in prison for killing a Chechen militant in a Berlin park. Russia wants Biden to make Germany give him back in exchange for Paul Whelan’s freedom.

How about trading back Mr. Greiner?
How about Biden for Putin? It won’t take the Vlad fifteen minutes to solve the Southern Border disaster. Then we can confer on him honorary U.S. citizenship.
Putin will make a trade with the removal of sanctions. They need Trump to make the best deal!!
Think biden will give Alaska back to Russia for his trade?
Since he holds 4 passports/citizenships, I would hope Canada, great Britain, and Ireland would slit the cost with us.
Putin to the whitehut PERVERT: You have nothing to bargain with freak, go sniff a little girls hair!
This one costs a capitupation on top of a squad of arms dealers.
