Biden faces foreign policy trouble spots as he aims to highlight his experience on the global stage

Associated Press  

WASHINGTON — This probably wasn’t how President Joe Biden envisioned his big foreign policy week ending. There is a diplomatic spat between U.S. allies Canada and India over the killing of a Sikh activist on Canadian soil, growing concern about the future of U.S. funding for Ukraine, and the indictment of the influential chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Sen. Bob Menendez, D-N.J. Each will test Biden and his administration. No politician wants to have to compensate for something like this.” The president is also facing growing global concern that future U.S. aid for Ukraine could become captive to a looming U.S. government shutdown. “There’s no alternative.” Biden has stepped up his attacks on Trump’s foreign policy record, casting the former president and his close Republican allies as lackeys for Russian President Vladimir Putin. “When Russia invaded Ukraine, I knew what to do -- because I’ve been doing it for a long, long time,” Biden told donors at a New York City fundraiser this week.
