Vice President Kamala Harris, escorted by Maj Guy Evertson, Alt. Director Flight Line Protocol, C-32A Pilot, walks across the tarmac to board her plane at Andrews Air Force Base, Md., Thursday, Feb. 17, 2022, to travel to Munich for the Munich Security Conference.WASHINGTON —
Harris is scheduled to meet Friday with NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg and hold a multilateral meeting with the leaders of the Baltic states of Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia on the margins of the Munich conference. She’s scheduled to deliver a major address Saturday on the administration’s efforts to stop Russian aggression. After the speech, she’s expected to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.
Then-Vice President Mike Pence in 2019 made a full-throated case for President Donald Trump’s “America First” worldview, receiving a tepid response from the mostly European crowd. Hours later, Biden, then a private citizen and not yet a 2020 presidential candidate, assured European allies that “this too shall pass” and “America will be back.”
In a mark of how rapidly the situation was evolving, in the time it took Harris to fly to Munich on Thursday, Biden issued a stark new threat that an invasion could happen within “several days,” Russia expelled the second-highest U.S. diplomat in Moscow and Russia’s Foreign Ministry handed over its formal reply to U.S. and NATO security proposals.
Munich offers an opportunity for Harris to demonstrate her foreign policy chops after what has been a sometimes choppy first year of her vice presidency. Her portfolio includes addressing a litany of difficult policy problems that have no clear solution or immediate payoff. Among the tough tasks on her plate are driving the administration’s push for a voting rights bill and addressing the root causes of migration to the U.S. southern border.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
This should end well
Putin will not invade as long as Harris keeps that god awful cackling away from him.
She got zero delegates. Her own party doesn’t even like her. Why would we expose them to the torture that is her?
