Putin’s bet on the disintegration of NATO is an “illusion”

US President Joe Biden said his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, hoped the West would “divide” as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine continued.

Biden praised allies who stood united in the Kremlin during the four months of the war, imposing sanctions on Russia while sending weapons to Ukraine.

Welcoming German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Sunday, Biden praised his counterpart for helping maintain pressure on Russia, a message central to Biden’s five-day visit to meet allies at summits in Germany and Spain.

Biden added, “We have to stay together, because Putin was counting from the start that NATO and the G7 would somehow split up… but we didn’t and we won’t.” “We cannot let this aggression take the form it takes and get away with it,” Biden added.
