Biden to focus on Ukraine and Middle East in final months of presidency - media
US President Joe Biden, who recently announced his withdrawal from the election race, will focus on geopolitical issues - Ukraine and the Middle East - until the end of his term.
This is reported by The Financial Times, Ukrinform reports.
According to the publication, one of the key priorities for Biden will be to provide guarantees of maximum support for Ukraine if Donald Trump wins the presidential election in November. After all, he has already promised to stop military aid to Ukraine if it does not negotiate with Russia.
At the same time, U.S. officials and analysts believe it is unlikely that the Biden administration will be able to get another aid package approved by Congress before the end of the president's term.
However, Biden himself will be able to ensure the finalization of bilateral agreements with Ukraine and provide any assistance available to Kyiv before the end of his term as head of the White House, the publication says.
Another topic that Biden will focus on in the next six months is the Middle East, with an emphasis on ending the war between Israel and Hamas, the publication notes.
As Ukrinform reported, US President Joe Biden announced on July 21 that he would not participate in the election race.
