During his State of the Nation address, U.S. President Biden made a clear stance on Ukraine and Kremlin leader Putin. He emphasized his determination to stand up to Putin and called for further support for the war-torn country. Here is everything Biden said:
Biden stated that the U.S. would not send troops to Ukraine, but would continue to advocate for the country. He also condemned his predecessor Trump's statements about NATO as dangerous and unacceptable, emphasizing the need to stand firm against Putin. In recent years, the U.S. has been Ukraine's most important ally, providing extensive arms shipments. However, due to a domestic political blockade in Congress, where Republicans are withholding further help, supplies from the U.S. have come to a halt. A new aid package for Ukraine is currently stuck in the House of Representatives, where the Republican chairman does not want to bring the package to a vote. Despite this, Biden warned the Kremlin in Moscow not to misjudge the situation. He affirmed that the U.S. would not shirk its responsibilities.
