SCHLOSS ELMAU, Germany: Panned by critics for dragging his feet on Ukraine, called a"sulky liver sausage" by the Ukrainian ambassador, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Sunday won public praise from a man he has long privately admired: US President Joe Biden.

Both leaders have vowed to strengthen Ukraine's armed forces, increase sanctions pressure on Moscow and counter surging food and energy prices that have undermined their popularity at home and tested their own domestic alliances., praising the chancellor for marshalling Europe's response to Russian President Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine.

Berlin's support for repeated rounds of sanctions against Russia, often against its own economic interests, has impressed US officials who had braced for a more halting embrace. Biden's administration has also welcomed Scholz's rapid and unprompted decision to halt the Russian-led Nord Stream 2 pipeline, said one source familiar with the matter.

Trump's public and private pummelling of Berlin over the pipeline, its failure to raise military spending to meet NATO targets and its support of the Iran nuclear deal sent the partnership reeling.
