The last time Biden was in the White House, Putin grabbed the Crimea and didn't let go and pretty much got away with it.
I say this because your definition of "stand up to Putin" doesn't add up.
What did you expect the USA to do? Invade Russia's back yard? What Russia did was as illegal as Israel keeping Palestinians suppressed, but you wouldn't want Iraq attacking Israel, would you?

Think, man, think!
The US staged that coup in Ukraine and Crimea asked Russia to come help them.
The US has a long history of staging coups in countries.
The only thing Biden did was to get his son into Ukraine energy making $1 million a year.
UK's Johnson hails Biden as 'a big breath of fresh air'
CARBIS BAY, England (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Boris Johnson hailed U.S. President Joe Biden as "a big breath of fresh air" on Thursday because he wanted to work with London on a huge range of issues ranging from climate change and COVID to security.
"It’s a big breath of fresh air," Johnson said of the talks with Biden. "It’s new, it’s interesting and we’re working very hard together. We went on for about an hour and 20 or so. It was a long, long, good session. We covered a huge range of subjects."
Biden is keen to try to use the trip to burnish his multilateral credentials after the tumult of Donald Trump's presidency, which left many U.S. allies in Europe and Asia bewildered and some alienated.
Johnson played down differences with Washington over the impact of Brexit on the peace in Northern Ireland, saying that the United States, United Kingdom and European Union had "complete harmony" on finding solutions to uphold the 1998 peace deal.
What do you expect him to say. I had a meeting with a dottering old senile gentleman.
This is what I found when I searched for what he said about President Trump.

It is very nice to finally have a POTUS who can stand up to Putin. Trump was just a fan boy since Putin is an actual dictator, and Trump loves autocracy.
“But Trump!”
