President Joe Biden on Thursday told Russia that the United States would no longer be “rolling over” in the face of aggressive action by Moscow, declaring a new, tough approach by Washington.
Visiting the State Department, Biden also promised to repair alliances and engage with the world again. “American leadership” must meet rising authoritarianism and unite with partners to combat global challenges such as the coronavirus pandemic or climate change, he said.
Biden, as expected, adopted a sterner tone with Russian President Vladimir Putin than his predecessor, Donald Trump.
“I made it clear to President Putin in a manner very different from my predecessor, that the days the United States rolling over in the face of Russia’s aggressive actions, interfering with our elections, cyber attacks, poisoning citizens are over,” Biden said. The two leaders spoke by phone in late January.
“We will not hesitate to raise the cost on Russia and defend our vital interests and our people, and we will be more effective in dealing with Russia when we work in coalition and coordination with other like-minded partners,” he said.

I’m sure Vladimir is shaking in his boots.
AQs soon as Joe comes for my guns, I’m on rootin’ for Putin.
No we will get rolled by China! Nice bait and switch/
Yes...from laughing so hard! How could he have stopped laughing?..is my question!
Well, this is rich.
Is Putin still laughing?
LOL!
Biden will be spinning like a wind turbine.
The implication is that Trump “rolled over” for Putin. PURE UNADULTERATED CRAP. Jackass joe is a liar non pareil.
“...Biden assered with no evidence.”
If anyone believes he talked tough with Putin that person is a moron.
And did Biden say this in Chinese?
I really gotta get me some 5 million SPF sunscreen soon.
That’s rich coming from a delta dog. As if Trump EVER “rolled over.”
Biden will shake, sit, stand, stay, anything for the Russians.
Just like he and Obama did when Vlad grabbed Crimea.
Tough guy with the Russkies,huh? How about some tough guy stuff with the CCP?
Hey Joe did you know your Secretary of Defense just ordered Military-Wide Stand-Down to Weed out White Supremacy = Whites are allowed the be a Private and no higher in rank system
In other words, we are rolling over. Speak loudly and carry a pussy-willow branch.
Translation - Ukraine is a RAT playground so we’re willing to go to war to keep it that way.
Wasn’t Biden VP when Russia rolled into the Ukraine?
Thought so.
Russia can totally annihilate us in 30 minutes, so Dementia Joe better not be making any decisions involving war.
