Biden tells UN world must stand up to Russia’s “naked aggression” in Ukraine

U.S. President Joe Biden appealed to world leaders at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) on Tuesday to stand with Ukraine against Russian invaders, a session which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy also attended in person. “If we allow Ukraine to be carved up, is the independence of any nation secure?“ Biden asked. “We have to stand up to this naked aggression today and deter other would-be aggressors tomorrow.“ UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres also said that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was a violation of the UN Charter, telling the annual gathering of world leaders that the war “has unleashed a nexus of horror.“ Separately, U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley expressed their support for Ukraine as some 50 nations gathered at the U.S. Ramstein Air Base in western Germany. “This is Ukraine’s fight, it is their story, their battle,” Milley said.
