I think Biden turning into SNL charatcer that Dana Carvey spoof on The meeting of EU foreign affairs ministers comes a day after Russia launched another massive attack of drones and missiles against Ukraine. Foreign affairs ministers of the European Union have gathered in Brussels to discuss the rapid succession of developments in Russia's invasion of Ukraine, including US President Joe Biden's decision to lift restrictions on long-range missiles, the deployment of an estimated 10,000 North Korean soldiers in the Kursk region and growing suspicions that Moscow has set up shop in China to assemble lethal drones. The Monday meeting comes a few days after German Chancellor Olaf Scholz held a controversial phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin, which was followed by a large-scale Russian attack against Ukraine's badly damaged power grid. Looming over the gathering is the recent US presidential election and victory of Donald Trump, who has pledged to revise military and financial assistance to Ukraine. Trump's political comeback is stoking fears that Europe might soon be left alone in its support for the war-torn nation. www.euronews.com/my-europe/2024/11/18/eu-foreign-affairs-ministers-discuss-support-for-ukraine-after-biden-lifts-veto-on-weapons
