BIDEN LATEST: Ukraine support ‘will not back down’ says in fiery speech after Zelensky’s NATO meeting

Biden: G7 support for Ukraine ‘will continue far into the future’

President Joe Biden said on Wednesday that the joint declaration of support for Ukraine from the G7 nations “will make clear” that support for Kiev from one of the world’s largest democracies “will continue long into the future.”

Speaking at the NATO summit in Vilnius following the inaugural meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Council, Biden said Western nations are making long-term commitments to Ukraine’s security assistance as Ukraine pursues a process leading to full membership in the then-31-member bloc.

President Volodymyr Zelensky said the outcome of the NATO summit is a “meaningful success for Ukraine,” adding that it brings new security opportunities to the homeland.

After the summit, Biden delivered a fiery historic speech at Vilnius University, telling the crowd of 10,000 that the United States and its allies would not hesitate to support Ukraine while praising Lithuania and other Baltic states for their historic struggles for freedom.

“The defense of liberty is not the work of a day or a year. It is the calling of our lives. For all times. We are hardened in the struggle ahead. Our unity will not falter, I promise you.”

But if Ukraine joins NATO in the middle of a war, then Russia is at war with the entire NATO alliance.

At the heart of this conundrum is Article 5 – NATO’s Mutual Defense Guarantee under which an attack on one member is an attack on them all.
