U.S. Ambassador to NATO Julianna Smith on Sunday said President Biden's comment that Russian President Vladimir Putin "cannot remain in power" was a "principled human reaction" after meeting with refugees fleeing Ukraine. "Well, look, the president had spent the day visiting with Ukrainian refugees. He went to the National Stadium in Warsaw and literally met with hundreds of Ukrainians. He heard their heroic stories as they were fleeing Ukraine in the wake of Russia's brutal war in Ukraine. In the moment, I think that was a principled human reaction to the stories that he had heard that day," Smith said. |
