“And just on the foreign policy front with the U.N. visit tomorrow, President Biden came into office declaring that America is back in vowing to reinvigorate U.S. alliances,” Diamond said. “But in recent weeks, we’ve seen European allies be unsettled by the execution of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, the administration has admitted to mistakenly killing 10 civilians in this drone strike. And now the U.S.’s oldest ally, France, has recalled its ambassador after being blindsided by this submarine deal with Australia.”
“So my question to you is, how is the President going to restore U.S. credibility at the U.N. this week after all that?” he asked.
Psaki responded by saying that Biden was going to focus on laying out a case “for why the next decade will determine our future not just for the United States, but for the global community.”
WOW this question to Jen Psaki from CNN's Jeremy Diamond: "Biden came in to office declaring that America is back, & vowing to reinvigorate U.S. alliances, but in recent weeks, we’ve seen European allies be unsettled...How is the President going to restore U.S. credibility[?]" pic.twitter.com/FkAvTEfUax
