Biden on Ukraine: 'We will not walk away' EL PAÍS USA EDITION

Dear readers, ‌ As world leaders gathered in Normandy to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings, EL PAÍS spoke to the families of veterans attending the ceremonies and local residents who remember June 6, 1944, and the days that followed. On Thursday, alongside French President Emmanuel Macron, Joe Biden spoke of the need to reinforce commitments to Ukraine in the face of a new Russian offensive. “We will not walk away,” said the U.S. president. ‌ Biden’s words came days after Washington relaxed some restrictions on Kyiv’s ability to repel the offensive on the Kharvik front by allowing the use of NATO weapons to attack targets on Russian soil in the Belgorod region, where the Kremlin concentrates its artillery positions, missile systems, aviation and drone units operating against Ukraine. However, the former U.S. ambassador to Kyiv, John Herbst, suggested more will be needed: “This half-hearted step is better than nothing,” he said, but “it does not send the necessary message to the Kremlin about U.S. resolve.” ‌ We also sat down with chess Grandmaster Garry Kasparov, who has been living in the U.S. since 2013 and whose opposition to Vladimir Putin has seen his name added to the Kremlin’s list of “terrorists and extremists.” “Many of my friends or fellow fighters are dead or imprisoned. Most of us are in exile,” said the former world number one, who retired in 2005 to dedicate himself to the struggle for a democratic Russia. “The irony is that we haven’t done anything related to terrorism, but those who are pursuing us are well-known terrorists or thieves. But this is the situation in 2024: war is called peace. And there will be no solution so long as Putin remains in power.” ‌ We hope you enjoy this selection of stories.
