Biden’s reactive diplomacy raises concerns in global conflicts: Andreas Kluth
Joe Biden's foreign policy approach, evident in both Ukraine and the Gaza Strip, raises questions about his leadership. While permitting Ukrainian use of American ordnance against Russian targets signifies a policy shift, it comes after prolonged urging and dithering, reflecting a reactive stance rather than proactive leadership. Similarly, Biden's response to Israel's actions in Gaza appears hesitant, lacking a decisive stance. Such reactive diplomacy poses challenges both domestically and internationally, necessitating a reevaluation of Biden's approach.
