Joe Biden in 1997 - NATO expansion, Russia, China, Iran - Thin line between confidence and arrogance

“And then the Russians say to me, “You keep expanding NATO; we’re going to make friends with China.“ I almost laughed; I could barely contain myself, and I said, “Good luck to you guys.“ If you fail with China, try Iran.“ Part of Atlantic Council on JUNE 18, 1997 - NATO Expansion “Sen. Joe Biden (D-DE) talked about the possibility of NATO expansion and what it could mean for the future of foreign diplomacy. He outlined his support for enlargement of NATO and gave his predictions for the Senate’s position on the issue. The Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland are the United States’ choices for membership in NATO“ #russiaukrainewar #biden #NATO #russia #USA #china #iran #joebiden #geopolitics #diplomacy
