NEW YORK – President United States of America (AS) Joe Biden says world must stand against “naked aggression” Russia and support the Ukrainian people.
Speaking before the UN General Assembly, he said that Moscow alone bears responsibility for the war, obstructing peace, and has the power to immediately end the conflict.
The US president then urged UN members to continue supporting Ukraine because failure to do this would allow Russia to carry out brutal actions against the country without compromise.
“If we allow Ukraine to disintegrate, will the independence of any country be guaranteed? I respectfully suggest the answer is no – we must stand up to this blatant aggression today, and deter potential aggressors in the future,” Biden said as quoted by Sky NewsTuesday (19/9/2023).
He vowed that the US would continue to support the Ukrainian people in defending its sovereignty, territorial integrity and freedoms.
The US president’s remarks drew applause from the UN delegation, including his Ukrainian colleague Volodymyr Zelensky, who was in the audience.
In his wide-ranging speech, Biden warned that the world is at an inflection point in history and no country can face today’s challenges alone.
“Our future is tied to your future,” he shouted.
