As Joe Biden’s term as President of the United States draws to a close, he’s trying to define his international legacy. From the Ukraine war, to the Gaza ceasefire, to the US pulling out of Afghanistan; Biden’s tenure has seen US involvement in multiple world events and conflicts. So how will his impact beyond American shores be remembered? And has he left the US stronger or weaker than it was before he took office? The BBC’s diplomatic correspondent, James Landale, speaks with The Global Story’s Jonny Dymond to discuss the effect that Joe Biden’s presidency has had on different parts of the world. We also hear the stories of some of those who have been directly affected by US foreign policy in Ukraine and Afghanistan. The Global Story brings you trusted insights from BBC journalists worldwide.
