Shortly after visiting Kiev, US President
Joe Biden sent a message to Vladimir Putin,
assuring that "Ukraine will never be a victory for Russia."
"Ukraine will never be a victory for Russia. Never!" Biden said from Poland, adding: "Autocrats understand only one word: no, no, no. You will not take my country, you will not take away my freedom, you will not
take my future".
The US president spoke from Warsaw shortly after his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin announced the suspension of the last nuclear disarmament treaty that both countries had signed.
In a fiery speech, Biden said
Putin thought he was "tough" but ran up against the "iron will of the US."
In response to the Russian president, who accused the United States and NATO of wanting to destroy his country, Biden was blunt: "The United States and the nations of Europe do not seek to control or destroy Russia. The West does not plan to attack Russia."
The United States had spoken out against Putin's announcement through its Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, who described it as "very irresponsible."
