Joe Biden: A president fighting for his political survival

On Friday, Joe Biden wants to give a major TV interview in which he cannot afford to make any mistakes – and next week the NATO summit is taking place in Washington. The US President is fighting for his political survival. Even Olaf Scholz is being roped in.

Joe Biden is still making jokes, after all. On Wednesday afternoon, the President of the United States will stand in the magnificent East Room of the White House to posthumously honor two American soldiers with the Medal of Honor, the country’s highest military award. In 1862, in the midst of the bloody Civil War, the men were involved in a mission to sabotage the railroad system in Confederate territories using a stolen train. They died during the operation, the famous “Andrews Raid.”
