In several conversations with European leaders in Munich, Biden heard a repeated refrain, according to a conference attendee familiar with the conversations: The world needs you
“Joe Biden is a good friend and I always enjoy our work together — but he knows his own mind and does not need my advice on whether he should run for President,” Rasmussen told POLITICO by email.
“I promise you. I promise you, as my mother would say, ‘This too shall pass.’ We will be back. We will be back. Don’t have any doubt about that,” Biden told the crowd, which capped his speech with a standing ovation. Foreign leaders view Biden “as a safe and consistent pair of hands on foreign policy and that’s what they’re looking for,” said Ian Bremmer, president of the Eurasia Group, who also attended the Munich conference. “They’re comfortable with him. It’s plausible he can win. He’s a known face on foreign policy.”
