President Biden makes a surprise visit to Kyiv. As air raid sirens sounded, Presidents Biden and Zelensky were visiting the gold-domed Cathedral of Saint Sophia and the monument to the fallen heroes of Ukraine.
President Biden announced that the USA would stand with Ukraine “as long as it takes”, sending a crucial signal to the Kremlin as it stands to host a Chinese foreign affairs minister, possibly to discuss the shipment of arms to Russia.
This vital visit of Biden also shores up NATO and EU support, offering an umbrella to Ukraine’s other allies, and informing putin and any possible apologists and waverers among Ukraine’s allies, in no uncertain terms, that USA is in this for the long haul.
According to President Zelensky, the results of this visit will be seen soon in the battlefield.
