U.S. Democracy

On Monday President Obama will embark on a weeklong trip to France, Poland, and Belgium in hopes of showing the world the United States still defends democratic governments. Senior U.S. officials, say that Obama will make it absolutely clear that the United States remains firmly committed to the defense of democracy and self-rule in Europe. Obama was supposed to attend the G8 summit in Russia, but after the Ukraine crisis broke out, he will now attend the G7 summit in Brussels. The goal of the trip is to set democratic security back in Eastern Europe after the Ukraine crisis.
