The return of the US to the role for which it has no substitute in the free world, after a cycle of isolationist self-absorption, is good news.

His president concluded her visit to Europe on Saturday with

a profound speech before a crowd in Warsaw

that much of the continent needed to hear to feel some relief.

Because while Putin

's brutality

continues to devastate Ukraine, from a distance where we Spanish find ourselves, for example, it is sometimes difficult to understand the

true fear that is breathed in the EU countries that have so fresh the memory of the boot of the Soviet Union

and who suffer the current impact of the bombing just a few kilometers from their borders.

For this reason, beyond the negotiations in Brussels, the adoption of sanctions and the messages with which the Twenty-seven take the security and territorial integrity of all for granted, many Europeans wanted to hear words like those of

Joe Biden

: «That Don't even think about stepping an inch [into Poland's border] because we have a sacred obligation in Article 5."

The US president did nothing but appeal to the

collective defense that forces all NATO members to react if one of them is attacked

.

And Putin is well aware of that warning.

But Biden's emphasis is to ensure

that the citizens of Europe have no doubt about the degree of Washington's commitment to defense on this other side of the Atlantic.

.

On the one hand, because in recent years -especially since Trump's mandate- there had been a progressive geopolitical estrangement between the EU and the US, which seemed to have turned all its energies to the thriving Asia-Pacific -in clear antagonism with China- and now rediscovers that History is also still being written on the Old Continent.

And, on the other hand, public opinion helplessly perceives NATO's fearful response to Putin after the invasion of Ukraine, and hence the fear is growing that an emboldened Putin will not stop in this country.

But in the Atlantic Alliance, although they are aware of this danger, there have been no fissures in ruling out any offensive action that would dramatically lead us to a third world war.

It seemed essential, therefore, such an unequivocal statement by Biden in

a soothing speech for the Poles and for so many others

.

It is in this rhetorical context that the mention that Putin "cannot remain in power" must be inserted, although the confusing phrase yesterday forced the entire US Administration to clarify that the White House does not have a policy

of regime change in Russia

.

The madness of the Kremlin demands the

reinforcement of Atlanticism

that many had almost given up for dead, and against which a certain left such as Podemos in Spain does not stop attacking.

It remains vital for the security of EU citizens.
