He said this during a security conference taking place in Munich.
“We should be judged by how Russia implements agreements, not by how it signs,” Biden said, speaking about the conflict in Ukraine and relations between Russia and Ukraine.
“Many times President Putin promised peace, but delivered tanks and soldiers,” he said. – And we (USA – editor’s note) will help in matters of defense, but not encourage war. We do not believe that there is a military solution to the conflict in Ukraine. We don't believe that Russia can do what it does. We believe that the Ukrainian people have the right to defend themselves,” Biden said to applause from the crowd.
