'Will end Ukraine war...': US Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy shares how

In a move quite different from other US leaders, Indian-American lawmaker Vivek Ramaswamy has advocated for ending the Russia-Ukraine conflict with Moscow keeping parts of Donbas region and Kyiv not joining NATO.

He further argued that Russian President Vladimir Putin must exit his military alliance with China to end the conflict.

Notably, Vivek Ramaswamy, a biotech entrepreneur, is set to contest against Donald Trump in Republican primaries for US presidential polls.

"I will end the Ukraine War on terms that require Putin to exit his military alliance with China. The goal shouldn't be for Russia to "lose." It should be for the U.S. to win.", Mr Ramaswamy said on X (formerly Twitter).

In an interview with CNN, Mr Ramaswamy called Russia-China military alliance the "single-biggest military" threat for the US and even stated that he would be visiting Moscow after assuming the presidency.

"The Biden administration is so stubbornly attached to the idea of getting Xi Jinping to drop Vladimir Putin. What I think, we need to be doing is get Vladimir Putin to drop Xi Jinping. Just like Nixon went to China in 1972. I think Putin is like the new Mao. I will visit Moscow, and I will pull Russia out of military alliance with China," he said during the interview with CNN.

He further stated that US engagements with Ukraine are driving Russia into "Chinese arms".
