Joe Biden spoke to G7 leaders at the virtual <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/02\/19\/biden-europe-nato-china-russia-munich-conference\/\">Munich Security Conference<\/a> on Friday and outlined his foreign policy goals, which seemingly favored the globalist agenda.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout his speech, Biden reinforced the alliance between the U.S. and Europe. He said the United States will \u201cwork in lockstep with allies and partners.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe transatlantic alliance is back and we are not looking backward,\u201d Biden said. \u201cWe are looking forward together. It comes down to this: The transatlantic alliance is a strong foundation, the strong foundation on which our collective security and our shared prosperity are built.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While discussing China, Biden gave a mixed message by saying he welcomed the competition. He later added the U.S. and its allies must fight against China\u2019s abuses within the global economic system. Biden stated:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cCompetition with China is going to be stiff. That\u2019s what I expect and that\u2019s what I welcome because I believe in the global system. Europe and the United States, together with our allies in the Indo-Pacific, worked so hard to build over the last 70 years. We have to push back against the Chinese government\u2019s economic abuses and coercion that undercut the foundations of the international economic system.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>He also claimed the U.S. and its European allies must come together to protect the\u201dfree exchange of ideas in open democratic societies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Richard Grenell, a former intelligence official under the Trump administration, took to Twitter to comment on Biden\u2019s speech. He claimed \u201cBiden\u2019s America will not be first.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Biden says America will not be First. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/EZKSoKq13i\">https:\/\/t.co\/EZKSoKq13i<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Richard Grenell (@RichardGrenell) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RichardGrenell\/status\/1362839952527003648?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 19, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Trump administration was known for prioritizing the U.S.,&nbsp; which often involved ending partnerships the administration considered harmful to the nation.<\/p>\n<h4>RELATED:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/republicans-warn-against-moving-away-from-trump-legacy-as-gop-moves-forward\/\">Republicans Warn Against Moving Away From Trump Legacy As GOP Moves Forward<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2181269,"comment_status":"close","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/dzm0ugdauank9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/GettyImages-1231267590-655x437.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"Munich Security Conference: Critics say Biden\u2019s speech distances U.S. from \u2018America First\u2019 policies","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-154108","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/dzm0ugdauank9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/GettyImages-1231267590-655x437.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"Munich Security Conference: Critics say Biden\u2019s speech distances U.S. from \u2018America First\u2019 policies","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/154108","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=154108"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/154108\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2181269"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=154108"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=154108"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=154108"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
