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.”

With inflation ticking up just 0.2%, the White House is cheering for Binomics

President Joe Biden hailed that inflation rose just 0.2 percent in June and recorded the lowest 12-month increase in more than a year on Wednesday.

The CPI for all urban consumers showed that inflation rose 0.2 percent last month after rising just 0.1 percent in May, a sign of declining inflation. Meanwhile, the all-items index rose 3 percent over the past 12 months ending in June, its lowest 12-month rise since March 2021.

“Good jobs, lower costs: that’s the Bidennomics approach,” Biden said in a statement.

Biden wants voters to notice lower inflation

Inflation policy took a sharp turn on Wednesday with a report showing consumer prices rose at the slowest pace since the early months of Joe Biden’s presidency.

Republicans have bashed Biden over the cost of groceries, gasoline, utilities and more, saying the $1.9 trillion pandemic relief package and push for electric cars were responsible for driving inflation to its highest levels in four decades. The GOP’s argument resonated with voters, but the June consumer price report suggested that inflation has eased significantly without any of the job losses some economists and Republican leaders said would happen.
