During his first State of the Union address on Tuesday night, President Joe Biden said that Russian President Vladimir Putin was "badly miscalculated" with his invasion of Ukraine.
Russia's Vladimir Putin tried to shake the foundations of the free world by making it bend to his menacing ways. Biden said that he badly miscalculated.
He thought the world would roll over if he rolled into Ukraine. Biden said that Putin met a wall of strength that he never anticipated.
The applause and cheering on the House floor came after Biden called for a standing ovation.
The Ukrainian Ambassador is sitting with the First Lady. If you can stand, stand and send an unmistakable signal to the world, let each of us do it, Biden said.
