Having dropped the presidential race, Joe Biden seeks to fix everything he can fix when it comes to Ukraine and Middle East, Financial Times reported.
“Joe Biden’s decision to drop out of the 2024 US presidential race has kicked off a six-month race to solidify his administration’s foreign policy achievements, particularly in the two areas most likely to shift dramatically under a Donald Trump presidency: the Middle East and Ukraine,” the article reads.
This week, both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who already arrived in the U.S., in Washington, DC. It is essential for Biden push his ceasefire deal on Gaza.
When it comes to Ukraine, Jim Townsend, a former senior Pentagon official who focused on Europe and Nato, suggests that Joe Biden should make trips that will give more attention to American assistance for Ukraine. Going to Kyiv when F-16s arrive in Ukraine is one of the ideas for it.
Meanwhile, Trump’s plan envisages cutting off Ukraine aid if the state refuses to immediately start negotiations with the aggressor.
