President Biden on Tuesday went off-topic multiple times and repeated 'all kidding aside' during a meeting with Polish President Andrzej Duda to reaffirm both leaders' support for Ukraine in its war with Russia.
The meeting was to mark the anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which is just days away, and marshal solidarity for the war-torn country among NATO allies.
Mr. Biden, who is Catholic, said John Paul, who was Polish, spent the bulk of their meeting talking about Poland and never discussed their shared faith. “When coal died we moved down to Delaware into a town called Claymont, Delaware, which was a working-class town,” Mr. Biden recalled. “But everyone in town was either Polish or Italian. I grew up feeling self-conscious my name didn’t end in a ‘ski’ or an ‘o.’”
