"America’s leadership on the world stage and support for our allies is critical to keeping the American people safe here at home," said Biden in a statement.

"If my opponent, Donald Trump, is able to regain power, he is making it clear as day that he will abandon our NATO allies if Russia attacks and allow Russia to 'do whatever the hell they want' with them."
