WASHINGTON: The US is “winning” the worldwide competition while its adversaries are facing headwinds, President Joe Biden said on Monday.
The 82-year-old outgoing president drove to the Foggy Bottom headquarters of the US State Department to deliver his last foreign policy speech in which he highlighted the achievements of his administration and how the world had changed in the past four years.
“A new era has begun. In these four years, we faced crises that we’ve been tested. We’ve come through those tests stronger, in my view, than we entered those tests. This is a fierce competition (that is) underway, the future of the global economy, technology, human values and so much else. Right now, in my view, thanks to our administration, the United States is winning the worldwide competition,” Biden said. PTI
