'We are going to be there as long as it takes': Joe Biden vows to stand by Ukraine after G7 offers new security deal for Kyiv just one day after Volodymyr Zelensky's furious outburst over 'absurd' NATO delay

President Joe Biden vowed to stand by Ukraine 'as long as it takes' as he and fellow G7 leaders announced a new security deal for Kyiv.

It came just one day after Volodymyr Zelensky launched a social media tirade against his Western allies over what he called an 'absurd' delay to setting out a pathway to his country's full membership of the NATO military alliance.

'We are going to be there as long as it takes,' Biden said in a speech flanked by fellow leaders from the G7, a club of the world's richest economies that includes Britain and France.

'We are going to help Ukraine build a strong and capable defense across land, air and sea,' he added, insisting the Ukrainian military would be 'a force of stability in the region.'

Most Western allies have already provided substantive military support, but mainly to be used by land forces. Western fighter jets or warships have not been delivered so far.

Biden and his Ukrainian counterpart later sat down for long-awaited talks in Vilnius, Lithuania on the second day of a key NATO summit.

The president acknowledged that sometimes Ukraine was 'frustrated' with the speed and scope of arms deliveries but vowed that the U.S. 'is not going anywhere.'

Dressed in his trademark olive green combat fatigues, Zelensky appeared to row back on his bullish outburst from 24 hours earlier.

Zalenskyy could blow the whistle of the whole crooked lot of them, so he’s holding them hostage.

Would the people running Joe Biden retaliate for proof of Biden’s corruption from Ukraine by abandoning it? Can the US even credibly do so after lavishing praise upon Ukraine and the war effort there?

“President Joe Biden vowed to stand by Ukraine ‘as long as it takes”

Typically, when a Democrat says something like this about a failing effort... it means that they are about to stab someone in the back. Have Zelensky’s political money laundering and the massive transfer of funds into arms producers pockets, finally managed to suck the titty dry?

Translation: There is money to be made in this conflict, and we’ll be there until the last dollar is grifted.

They are going to get us into a war that will kill millions. All so their corruption remains secret. Are you going along with this? I won’t.

I seem to remember when President Trump first encountered these vipers, and got impeached for asking questions.

Fine by me. I am against Russian imperialism. Same as I was when Ronald Reagan was president.

Ukraine -—The only thing the Biden administration has done right.
“When the World Is Running Down, You Make the Best of What’s Still Around” .... Which came out by The Police in 1983. And we are still around.

Do you think Biden would support Taiwan as diligently?

Just like Korea, Viet nam, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. somehow I suspect the eventual outcome will not be any more favorable.
