Looks like Putin got what he wanted out of negotiations with President Biden. A new set of Aviator shades and the US putting a hold on lethal military aid to the beleaguered nation of Ukraine. Months ago the US alarmed by increased buildup of Russian military "volunteers" created a one hundred million military package to help Ukraine defend itself. Putin did promise to withdraw the troops so we will see if he actually does. And the US will keep the aid package together in case Vladimir doesn't play by the rules.

Yes, it is a "temporary hold" on the third aid package to Ukraine, pending Putin's concession promise to withdraw Russian troops and equipment from the border with Ukraine.
Putin promising to withdraw troops from the border was not "what Putin wanted."

If the hold on military aid continues, it will be just what Putin wants.
