Mr. Biden: I know many of you in the muslem-American community, arab-American community, Palestinian-American community, and so many others, are outragedโฆsaying to yourselves, 'Here we go again', with Islamophobia, and the stress we saw after 9/11.
Mr. Biden: When Putin invaded Ukraine, he thought he would take Kiev, and all of Ukraine in a matter of days. Over a year later, and Putin has failed. Kiev still stands because of the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Ukraine has regained more than fifty percent of the territory Russian troops once occupied. Backed by a US-led coalition of more than fifty countries around the world, all doing it's part to support Kiev. What would happen if we walked away? We are the essential nation.
Mr. Biden: When I exited that train and met President Zelenskyy, I didn't feel alone. I was bringing with me the idea of America. The promise of America. To the people who are today fighting for the same things we fought for two hundred and fifty years ago. Freedom, independence, self-determination.
