Sovereignty and human rights are the core tenants of the UN charter, Biden says, and the UN must stand up to Russia’s “naked aggression.”.
For a second year in row, he says, this gathering is darkened by the shadow of war, which was brought by Russia without provocation.
“Russia believes that the world will grow weary and allow it to brutalize Ukraine without consequence. But I ask you this: If we abandon the core principles of the UN Charter to appease an aggressor, can any member state feel confident that they are protected? If we allow Ukraine to be carved up, is the independence of any nation secure?” says President Joe Biden
He further added “That is why the United States together with our Allies and partners around the world will continue to stand with the brave people of Ukraine as they defend their sovereignty and territorial integrity – and their freedom.”
