Former Secretary of State Madeline Albright Discusses Meeting Between President Biden And Putin

The former Secretary of State Madeline Albright has collected many awards over the years for the vast amount of service to this country.  She is a steward of American democracy.  She is a teacher of state morals and values.  Anyone interested in learning about public service should definitely consult and read the work that has been done and written about.


With that being said, as President Biden meets with President of Russia -- Vladimir Putin, MSNBC Morning Joe show hosts Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough have had a chance to get a grade (or scorecard reading) on the success of the diplomatic efforts:



The meeting this week was vastly different than the previous meeting that took place in Helsinki between former President Trump and Putin.  For starters, President Biden is schooled in diplomacy at the highest levels.  That is in direct contrast to the vastly inexperienced President Trump.  President Trump thought that he commanded respect from President Putin.  When in fact President Putin was pulling the wool over his eyes.  Putin ran circles around Trump -- simple as that.


For the sake of humanity, luckily, President Biden is in a greater amount of control than what has occurred in the past.  Political negotiation is not business negotiation.  Politics does require skills that take time to polish up on and perfect before entering the rooms with other state officials.  The ultimate results will come to light as the nation moves forward in time.
