The U.S. president condemned the Russian president and his actions in Ukraine.
U.S. President Joe Biden did not mince his words when he said that Russian President Vladimir Putin “cannot remain in power” while on a visit to Poland in March 2022. The comments came amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and as Biden met with refugees, European leaders, and NATO allies.
In a roughly 30-minute speech at the Royal Castle in Warsaw, Poland, Biden said (emphasis ours):
A dictator bent on rebuilding an empire will never erase a people’s love for liberty. Brutality will never grind down their will to be free. Ukraine will never be a victory for Russia — for free people refuse to live in a world of hopelessness and darkness.
We will have a different future — a brighter future rooted in democracy and principle, hope and light, of decency and dignity, of freedom and possibilities.
For God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power.
