Biden says Russia's war is about extinguishing Ukraine's right to "exist as state, as a people".
"Just before he invaded, Putin asserted, and I quote, 'Ukraine was created by Russia' and never had quote 'real statehood'.
"And now we see attacks on schools, railway stations, hospitals.. even more horrifying evidence of Russia's war crimes."
The US president also references the mass grave recently uncovered in Izyum, which he said "showed signs of torture".
He says Russia's war is about extinguishing Ukraine's right to exist as a state - "plain and simple", before telling those at the UN General Assembly:
Quote Message: Whoever you are, wherever you live, whatever you believe - that should make your blood run cold. That's why 141 nations in the General Assembly came together to unequivocally condemn Russia's war against Ukraine.
