The war in Ukraine and the need to support this country in the face of Russian aggression was one of the themes tackled by the US president Joe Biden in his state of the union address. According to Radio Romania’s correspondent in Washington, the speech was a summary of the policies pursued by the Biden administration and an opportunity to make promises about the future, including raising the salaries of public-school teachers. Biden, who will run for a second term in office, also criticised his rival Donald Trump for what he described as his „bowing down” to the Russian leader Vladimir Putin and his position on guns, at a time when the United States is facing a genuine epidemic of armed attacks.
