After 8 months of this war, the world is more united and determined than ever - Biden 

This is reported by the press service of the White House.

“Today, the overwhelming majority of the world—nations from every region, large and small, representing a wide array of ideologies and governments – voted to defend the United Nations Charter and condemn Russia’s illegal attempt to annex Ukrainian territory by force. 143 nations stood on the side of freedom, sovereignty, and territorial integrity—even more than the 141 nations that voted in March to unequivocally condemn Russia’s war against Ukraine. Only 4 chose to side with Russia—Belarus, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Nicaragua, and Syria,” Biden said.

The US president noted that by attacking the main provisions of the UN Charter, Russia is destroying the very foundations of international peace and security: "The stakes of this conflict are clear to everyone, and the world has sent a clear message in response: Russia cannot erase a sovereign state from the map. Russia cannot change borders by force. Russia cannot seize the territory of another country as its own."

He added that Ukraine has the same rights as any other sovereign state.  And must be able to choose its own future, and its people must be able to live peacefully within its internationally recognized borders:

“Nearly eight months into this war, the world has just demonstrated that it is more united, and more determined than ever to hold Russia accountable for its violations. Together with the UN General Assembly, we will not tolerate illegal attempts at annexation or the theft of a neighbor’s land by force. We will stand up for international law, the UN Charter, and the rights and protections it affords to Ukraine and its people – and to every state and people everywhere.”
