Biden Urges Continued Support for Ukraine Amid Transition of Power
President Joe Biden plans to discuss crucial domestic and international issues with President-elect Donald Trump. Key among these is urging continued support for Ukraine amidst its conflict with Russia. With a peaceful power transfer emphasized, Biden aims to ensure ongoing U.S. involvement in Ukraine remains steadfast, despite opposition.
President Joe Biden is preparing to meet with President-elect Donald Trump this Wednesday to discuss major domestic and foreign policy issues. A central point of contention is Biden's call to not abandon Ukraine as the nation grapples with Russian aggression, according to National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan.
Sullivan emphasized Biden's commitment to a peaceful transition of power while noting the need to retain U.S. support in Ukraine to prevent further instability in Europe. Discussions are anticipated to cover significant geopolitical landscapes, including Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.
While specifics remain unclear, the dialogue is expected to include Ukraine's ongoing war with Russia, a focal point due to Trump's previous criticisms and differing viewpoints on U.S. aid to Ukraine. As congressional control shifts, Biden's push for sustained support may face new legislative challenges.
