U.S. President Joe Biden
Washington D.C./04.04.23/Turan: U.S. President Joe Biden on Tuesday welcomed NATO’s newest member, calling Finland’s ascension into the world’s most powerful military alliance “the fastest ratification process” in modern history, TURAN's Washington correspondent reports.
“When Putin launched his brutal war of aggression against the people of Ukraine, he thought he could divide Europe and NATO. He was wrong,” Biden said in a morning statement.
He went on to add, "Today, we are more united than ever. And together—strengthened by our newest Ally Finland—we will continue to preserve transatlantic security, defend every inch of NATO territory, and meet any and all challenges we face"
The White House also called on Turkey and Hungary to complete Sweden’s ratification process.
“Both countries are strong democracies with highly capable militaries, who share our values and vision for the world,” Biden added in his statement.
