President Joe Biden on Tuesday issued a defense of American leadership and reiterated U.S. support for Ukraine during a speech at the United Nations.
In particular, Biden reiterated U.S. support for revamping how the World Bank and other multilateral development banks work with low- and middle-income countries. The push is an implicit counterweight to China's longtime investment in developing nations around the world.
"We gather once more at an inflection point in world history," Biden said. "I understand the duty my country has at this critical moment." "No nation wants this war to end more than Ukraine," the president said. "We strongly support Ukraine in its efforts to bring about diplomatic resolution that delivers just and lasting peace. Russia alone bears responsibility for this war."
"That's 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," he continued, prompting a round of applause from the audience. While in New York, on Wednesday, Biden will also meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to the White House.
