Joe Biden Addresses the UN
Joe Biden has slammed Putin’s “brutal” and “needless” war in Ukraine today, as he addressed the UN general assembly.
“This war is about extinguishing Ukraine’s right to exist as a state, plain and simple, and Ukraine’s right to exist as a people,” Mr Biden said.
“Wherever you are, wherever you live, whatever you believe… That should make your blood run cold.
“Ukraine has the same rights that belong to every sovereign nation. We will stand in solidarity with Ukraine which will stand in solidarity against Russia’s aggression, period.”
“Now we see attacks on schools, railway stations, hospitals… even more horrifying evidence of Russia’s war crimes.”
