#Biden calls #America’s democratic values the “grounding wire of our global power” & its #alliances “our greatest asset.” …#Trump, called for withdrawing American forces in #Europe & #Asia & has promised… to cut loose even our closest #allies if they don’t do as he tells them. …Trump sees all countries as unreliable, the relations between them #transactional. That sentiment has spread throughout a #GOP that once championed America’s values abroad…

#Biden leads the #UnitedStates as the American century is fading into an uncertain future, a changing world of #threats, opportunities, & #power shifts. At 81, he holds fast to a vision that has reigned since WWII, in which a rich & powerful America leads an #alliance of #democracies to safeguard the globe from #tyranny.

During his 40 months in office, events have tested #Biden’s vision of American world leadership. #Alliances haven’t been enough to win a new European #war in #Ukraine. US #power & leverage haven’t prevented a #humanitarian catastrophe in the #MiddleEast, marked by alleged #WarCrimes. #Putin is trying to assemble an axis of #autocrats from #Tehran to #Beijing. In #China, the US faces an adversary potentially its equal in economic & military power intent on tearing down the American #GlobalOrder.

President #Xi has told his military to be ready to invade #Taiwan by 2027…. #Biden doesn’t rule out sending troops to defend Taiwan if #China attacked, saying, “It would depend on the circumstances.”

Biden’s record in facing these tests is more than just nostalgic talk. He has added 2 powerful European militaries to #NATO, & will soon announce the doubling of the number of countries in the Atlantic #alliance that are paying more than the target 2% of their GDP toward #defense….

#Biden’s admin has worked to prevent the #war in #Gaza from igniting a broader regional conflict. He brokered the 1st trilateral summit w/long-distrustful regional partners #SouthKorea & #Japan, & coaxed the #Philippines to move away from China’s orbit & accept 4 new #US military bases. He has rallied countries in #Europe & #Asia to curtail #China’s economic sway. “We have put together the strongest #alliance in the history of the world,” Biden says….

#Biden, who is the most experienced #ForeignPolicy President in a generation, believes that role is in #America’s interest. “When we strengthen our #alliances, we amplify our #power as well as our ability to disrupt #threats before they can reach our shores,” he said…. To judge the merit of Biden’s plan to sustain American world leadership, voters can look to his record: what he has accomplished, where he has fallen short, & how he intends to build on his work in a 2nd term.
