The president addressed a crowd of 10,000 American- and Ukrainian-flag waving onlookers who cheered Biden’s promotion of democracy.
VILNIUS, Lithuania — President Joe Biden used his last moments here to rally NATO allies and the world’s democracies to stick together as Russia’s war on Ukraine extends beyond 500 days.
The president’s address was a paean to NATO and the transatlantic security architecture he has toiled to strengthen well before the invasion began. But Biden also used the opportunity to call for more cooperation among nations to address challenges like climate change, poverty and economic inequality.
“NATO is stronger, more energized and yes, more united than ever in its history,” he further claimed in Lithuania. That enraged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who hours before arriving in Vilnius Tuesday blasted the language as “” — a broadside that threatened the unity Biden and his team hoped to exhibit in Vilnius.
Jake Sullivan, the U.S. national security adviser, made the television rounds earlier Wednesday to quell the narrative of a mixed-bag gathering. There’s also a fear that Russia will find ways to extend the war just to lower the chances of Ukraine imminently joining NATO. Allied leaders, however, repeatedly downplayed that concern.
