Biden in Poland: US, allies 'will never waver' in Ukraine

WARSAW, Poland - President Joe Biden on Tuesday warned of ''hard and bitter days ahead" as Russia's invasion of Ukraine nears the one-year mark, but vowed that no matter what, the United States and allies ''will not waver'' in supporting the Ukrainians.

A day after his surprise visit to Kyiv, Biden used a strongly worded address in neighboring Poland to praise allies in Europe for stepping up over the past year and to send a clear message to Russian President Vladimir Putin that "NATO will not be divided, and we will not tire.''

''One year ago, the world was bracing for the fall of Kyiv,'' Biden said before a crowd of thousands outside Warsaw's Royal Castle. ''I can report: Kyiv stands strong. Kyiv stands proud. It stands tall and, most important, it stands free."
