President Joe Biden opened his 2024 State of the Union rallying for American support for Ukraine. “We will not walk away. We will not bow down. I will not bow down,” Biden said, to thunderous applause. He called on Congress to pass legislation with financial aid to Kyiv, and hailed NATO’s strength, noting its two newest members: Finland, which joined in 2023, and Sweden, which officially. joined earlier Thursday. Biden also condemned former President and likely Republican nominee Donald Trump for not strongly repudiating Russian President Vladimir Putin, calling Trump's remarks dangerous and unacceptable. This is Biden’s third State of the Union address and the last of this term.
