Biden blasts Belarus plane diversion as US vows to hold regime 'to account'
|
[NYPOST] President Joe Biden
 ...... 46th president of the U.S. Old, boring, a plagiarist, fond of hair sniffing and grabbing the protruding parts of women, and not whatcha call brilliant ... or is that an act?......
has directed his team to draft potential measures to respond to Belarus’ forced landing of a passenger jet to arrest an opposition journalist, he revealed in a new statement — calling the action an "outrageous incident."
The statement, released Monday evening, came in response to growing international outrage over the diversion of a Ryanair flight to arrest Raman Pratasevich, an opposition figure in Belarus and a passenger on board, in what Biden called "a direct affront to international norms."
"I join the many calls for an international investigation to ascertain the complete facts of the case," the commander-in-chief stated.
"I welcome the news that the European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
has called for targeted economic sanctions and other measures, and have asked my team to develop appropriate options to hold accountable those responsible, in close coordination with the European Union, other allies and partners, and international organizations."
Hours before Biden’s statement was released, the EU announced that it would impose more sanctions on the embattled Eastern European nation while calling on its airlines to avoid Belarusian airspace.
