Noman Sabit: President Joe Biden has responded to the letter sent by Chhabed Sathee, the editor of Bangla Press, a popular Bengali media in the United States, about US foreign policy. President Biden sent the letter by email last July 17, 2024. Biden believes that our world is at an inflection point. Competition among major global powers is rising while the threats we face demand greater cooperation than ever. That’s why my Administration is working with allies and partners around the world to advance our Nation’s vital interests, tackle global challenges, defend democracy, and win the competition to shape the future of our world so that it is free, open, prosperous, and secure.
He said, Since taking office, my Administration has restored American leadership on the international stage and rallied the world to take on shared challenges that impact the lives of people everywhere-from addressing the climate crisis and strengthening global health to preventing famines, combating corruption, and making sure that technology strengthens democracy and enables inclusive economic growth. We are leading a global coalition of nations to stand with the brave people of Ukraine as they defend themselves against Russia’s brutal aggression. We continue to do everything possible to prevent the Israel-Hamas conflict from spreading across the region and to work steadfastly with partners to pursue peace and a two-state solution so that Israelis and Palestinians can both maintain security and dignity. And while we continue promoting our fundamental principles of freedom, sovereignty, and democracy around the world, we have also brought together partners in new ways to address threats to global peace and security, including provocative behavior from Iran and North Korea.
Now, thanks to generational investments here at home in our infrastructure, manufacturing, and workforce, we have ensured that the United States will continue to lead the world in innovation for years to come. We are strengthening our military to deter and defend against the threats of today and tomorrow. In harnessing our unmatched network of allies and partners, the United States is in the strongest position to compete with nations everywhere-including the People’s Republic of China-and succeed.
At the end of the day, the objective of our foreign policy is to make life better and safer for all Americans. I will keep your message in mind as we work to meet the challenges and opportunities ahead that will determine the direction of our world for generations to come. May God bless America, and may He protect our troops and all those serving in harm’s way.
