Biden Says Allies Are Completely Unified
February 27, 2022 at 8:11 am EST By Taegan Goddard


President Joe Biden said his goal “from the very beginning” was to keep America’s allies on the same page, as Russian leader Vladimir Putin believed he could “split NATO” and proceed with his invasion of Ukraine without encountering much in the way of international resolve or resistance, Politico reports.

Instead, Putin is “producing the exact opposite effect that he intended.”

calling out Putin on his bullshit, warning the world, evacuating Americans ahead of the invasion, providing leadership to NATO

rather than forcing the issue on day one for maximum sanctions then. It has only taken about 72 hours for sanctions to toughen quite significantly and there was no public rift exposed among the allies on the way toward reaching that strong consensus.
