According to the interlocutor of the channel, Ukraine will be the main topic of Biden’s visit to Germany.
The source also noted that Germany is a “critically important partner” in US efforts aimed at ensuring that Ukraine is able to resist armed aggression by the Russian Federation.
“Germany is the second largest provider of military aid to Ukraine after the United States and has provided a number of high-tech assets, including tanks and other artillery systems,” the source said.
The interlocutor noted that Biden’s trip to Germany is urgent, as he wants to make sure that Ukraine has everything it needs for self-defense.
“There’s certainly a sense of urgency in the White House, and that’s coming from President Biden, to do everything we can to put Ukraine in a position of strength and then ultimately win the war,” the senior official said.
On October 18, Joe Biden will make a short visit to Berlin. There, he plans to meet with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
