Born, Biden: “We have new challenges, Russia and China”

“Over the past two years there has been growing recognition that we have new challenges ahead of us. There is Russia, which is not acting consistently with what we had hoped for, as is China.” This was underlined by US President Joe Biden, speaking before having a bilateral meeting with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, during the Atlantic Alliance summit in Brussels. “I make it clear: NATO is of fundamental importance for the interests of the United States – says Biden – If it didn’t exist, it would have to be invented, because it allows America to conduct its activities in the world in a way that otherwise” would not be possible.
