OTAN: Joe Biden, in his first international number: “United States has fallen” | International

The President of the United States, Joe Biden, has welcomed this celebration in his first international speech since leaving the Casa Blanca to return to cooperation with Europe through the aisle that matters to the Donald Trump Administration. “United States has prevailed”, announced at a virtual Munich Security Conference meeting with its European allies. Biden also warned of the risks that pervade democracies – “In many situations, including the United States and Europe, democratic progress is taking place as a result”, it is underestimating and combating China’s “economic abuses and coercion”.

Biden is a former connoisseur of this Munich forum, having participated as Vice President of the Barack Obama Administration (2009-2017) and, before that, during his long career as a state senator. Without embarrassment, the discourse that these women recorded was relatively pronounced, in 2019, when the quality of “ex” and with a leader like Donald Trump in front of the Government, promised: “United States will live, no one will doubt ”. Two years later, with a tone of satisfaction, the new mandate was announced at a video conference: “I am a man of words. United States has prevailed ”.

The rumor mill of the Biden era respects Trump’s exterior politics can be summed up in a series of redundant phrases; the step of “America, first”, both in the Republic and in the United States, in “America has fallen”, which is not the case with the labs of its democratic successor. The reality is even more complex. Washington has not withdrawn from the arrangements that its predecessor applied to European products and differed on the tone and strategy of following both Beijing and Moscow, and which it identifies as a serious escalation of authority. Both ideas are planned in the discourse of these fours, the first conducted to the international audience since the presidency of the United States.

“The transatlantic alliance has failed and we will not be able to get the other way back,” Biden ante the French president, Emmanuel Macron, and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the two leaders who fought for Trump and his remarks against Europe in his last four years. United States, Biden insists, is “totally compromised” with the OTAN, the body that the Republican has denounced. The Democrat recorded, hecho, that the first time that the Alliance reclaimed in Article 5, that it acted as any ally was attacked, was carried out in the attacks of the 11-S against the United States. Biden also declared that the country was “determined to win with Europe”. This alliance turns into one of the most valuable democratic values, in its opinion, and must be translated into force by the authoritarian impulses that are taking place in different parts of the world.

“In many areas, including the United States and Europe, democratic progress is taking place,” he said. “Our collaboration has grown and grown with the years because of the richness of our shared democratic values. No son transaccionales ni extractivos ”, subrayó. The North American president warned that this crisis was sovereign and other structural changes, fruit of the industrial revolution quarter, he placed in the lands at a “point of inflection”, a pulse between women screen “that autocracy is the best truck” to follow adelante and quienes, on the contrary, think that “democracy is the best way to confront challenges”.

China occupies a central position in the challenges that the United States identifies. If Trump puts the spotlight on commercial imbalances, Biden will only reduce aggression to rights and freedoms, but will not increase economic competence. Washington and Beijing are at the moment the most difficult of their relations in decades and this crisis, of various fronts, and most of the Gobierno cambio. “We are preparing together for a strategic competency in the long run with China,” the current president warned, continuing

The stadium argues that Xi Jinping’s regime did not need to implement a “Este-Oeste” bloc policy in favor of the Guerra Fría or to prevent global crisis-critical cooperation with the coronavirus or climate change. But his tone is not straight respect for the Asian giant. In the same way, it was able to retrieve “the economic abuses and coercion of the Chinese government, which is the basis of the international economic system”. “Everybody needs to play the same rules,” he recalled.

También apuntó hacia Moscú. ‘[Vladímir] Poetin seeks to erode our transatlantic alliance because of the Kremlin, it is much easier to attack and organize individual spaces that negotiate with a united alliance ”. On this line, it continues: “The Russian leaders believe that the people think that our system is the most corrupt, or the corrupt as the world”, denounced, “but the world knows that it is not, including the proposed proposals of Russia”. Hora antes, había participat también en la cumbre del G-7, foro al que Washington, de moment, sigu sin querer invite to Moscow. The first multilateral meeting of the Biden era took place on the day of the formalization of the Paris Pact. The United States has changed, but its major fronts are China and Russia.
