Vershbow: Western unity over Ukraine a strong message for Moscow

While President Biden is holding intensive diplomatic meetings in Europe, attending nato, G-7 and European Union meetings in Brussels, former NATO Deputy Secretary General Alexander Vershbow says transatlantic unity over the war in Ukraine is a strong message for Moscow.

President Biden visited a refugee centre in Poland on Friday, not far from the border with Ukraine. Poland has become a centre of the West's humanitarian and military response to the war in Ukraine.

The dislocation of additional troops from Washington to NATO's eastern wing has brought to over 100,000 the number of American soldiers stationed in Europe.

President Biden met with U.S. 82nd Division troops, who are part of 10,500 U.S. troops stationed in Poland.

"In the last 10 years more countries have moved away from democratic standards. So you are engaged in much more than simply easing the pain and suffering of the people of Ukraine. We're in a new phase. Your generation, we're at a turning point."

President Biden met with his Polish counterpart, Andrzej Duda, at a centre for the distribution of humanitarian aid. Washington has pledged an additional $1 billion in humanitarian aid. The U.S. president again accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of war crimes.

"The most important thing we can do from the beginning is to keep democracies united in efforts to limit the damage that is causing the man who I think is a war criminal," he said.

Earlier Friday in Brussels, Mr Biden met with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.

Currently Europe pays Russia about $600 million a day for energy imports, a notable defect in Western efforts to slap Russia's economy with sanctions.

The United States plans to help in efforts to end this dependence through a new agreement to increase imports of liquified natural gas into Europe to 50 billion cubic meters per year.

"This amount of 50 billion cubic meters per year will replace a third of russian gas that is imported from Europe today" said European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.

The Russian attack on Ukraine has transformed the security landscape in Europe. At the center of President Biden's visit is the message of transatlantic unity.

"The political message of unity among Western countries supporting Ukraine, and solidarity with the Ukrainian people and government, has sent a very important message to the Ukrainian people who are suffering from war. This has also sent a message to Moscow that its hopes of breaking up the West continue to be futile," former NATO Deputy Secretary General Alexander Vershbow said.
