US President Joe Biden is confident that Russia hoped that NATO and the “big seven” (G7) were waiting for a split because of the war in Ukraine. He announced this before a bilateral meeting with German Chancellor Olaf Sholts, reports the White House.
“Russia from the very beginning hoped that NATO and G7 would somehow split. But we did not do this and are not going to. We cannot allow this war to take the form that it has and get away with it,” – said Biden.
The US leader also praised the German Chancellor Olaf Sholts for help in providing pressure on Russia and urged him to continue in the same spirit.
