President Biden vowed in his first State of the Union address to check Russian aggression in Ukraine, tame soaring U.S. inflation at home and deal with the fading but still dangerous coronavirus.
WASHINGTON -- Addressing a concerned nation and anxious world, President Joe Biden vowed in his first State of the Union address Tuesday night to check Russian aggression in Ukraine, tame soaring U.S. inflation and deal with the fading but still dangerous coronavirus.
Biden highlighted the bravery of Ukrainian defenders and the commitment of a newly reinvigorated Western alliance that has worked to rearm the Ukrainian military and cripple Russia's economy through sanctions. He warned of costs to the American economy, as well, but warned ominously that without consequences, Russian President Vladimir Putin's aggression wouldn't be contained to Ukraine.
"We are coming for your ill-begotten gains," he said, pledging that the U.S. and European allies were coming after their yachts, luxury apartments and private jets. "Too many families are struggling to keep up with the bills," Biden said."Inflation is robbing them of the gains they might otherwise feel. I get it. That's why my top priority is getting prices under control."
In an interview with CNN and Reuters, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he urged Biden to deliver a strong and"useful" message about Russia's invasion. In a show of unity, Ukrainian Ambassador to the U.S. Oksana Markarova joined first lady Jill Biden in the gallery. A February AP-NORC poll found that more people disapproved than approved of how Biden is handling his job, 55% to 44%. That's down from a 60% favorable rating last July.
"Even before taking the oath of office, the president said that he wanted to - quote -make America respected around the world again, and to unite us here. He's failed on both fronts," she said.
