President Joe Biden unleashed a barrage of criticism at Russian President Vladimir Putin during the State of the Union address, also insinuating that Donald Trump has conceded to Putin's stance.
While addressing the joint session of Congress, Biden took both Putin and Trump to task, without directly naming Trump, stating that the former president essentially told Putin to proceed as he pleases. 'I believe this to be dangerously unacceptable,' Biden remarked.
He added that Ukraine has the potential to defeat Putin with our support and the provision of necessary defensive armaments.
Biden's Firm Message to Putin
Biden emphasized the need for additional funding for Ukraine in their war against Russia. 'Turning our backs on Ukraine would put them in jeopardy. My message to Putin is clear: We will not abandon Ukraine. We will not falter. I will not falter,' he declared.
Biden on Abortion Rights
In the State of the Union address, Biden also criticized the Supreme Court's 2022 decision regarding abortion rights, pledging to legally restore these rights to women if re-elected.
