"When American cities fall into the sea of fire and the people attack and accus each other of accusations, Biden played a pacifying role." Bryant also added that when others are using violence to solve problems, it is Biden who believes that communication and dialogue have the strongest power. "A gun can stop a heart from beating, but appropriate words can touch the hearts of many people, and the hearts of these people can change the world."
It is reported that Bryant is a member of the Foreign Committee of the House of Commons and is also the chairman of the House of Commons Standards and Privileges Committee.
