President Biden said Thursday that he is prepared to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin if he indicates he is interested in ending his country’s war with Ukraine. But Biden said Putin hasn’t done that yet.
Biden’s comments came during a joint news conference with French President Emmanuel Macron during which both leaders reaffirmed their commitment to supporting Ukraine.
I’m prepared to speak with Mr. Putin if in fact … he’s looking for a way to end the war,” Biden told reporters in the East Room of the White House. “He hasn’t done that yet.”
Biden also emphasized his view that Russia will not prevail in the war.
“The idea that Putin is ever going to defeat Ukraine is beyond comprehension,” Biden said, saying it is impractical for Russian forces to occupy the country on a sustained basis.
“He’s miscalculated every single thing,” Biden said of Putin.

 
That would be a good thing, if it could happen. Of course there's always a chance Biden could screw it up by saying something really stupid, like he did with the Taiwan thing, but ending war is always good. Preventing war is even better.
