“Full-scale war is not in anyone’s interest,” Biden said, urging for continued dialogue despite the escalating violence. His remarks came as Israel continued military strikes in Lebanon, raising concerns of an expanding conflict, which has so far resulted in the killing of over 500 people, including children.
Biden, who has faced criticism for his administration’s unwavering support for Israel, called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, where violence has escalated. He expressed deep concern for the plight of “innocent civilians” in the blockaded Palestinian enclave, describing their suffering as “hell.”
The US president proposed a ceasefire and hostage deal between Israel and Hamas, stating that such an agreement would help bring hostages home, secure Israel’s safety, and alleviate the crisis in Gaza.
He also warned against the risks of a broader “full-scale war” as Israel continues its operations in Lebanon, stressing the need for diplomatic efforts to resolve the situation. Turning to the war in Ukraine, Biden condemned Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion, asserting that it had failed to achieve its core objective of destroying Ukraine. He called on the international community to keep supporting Kyiv until victory is achieved, highlighting that “Ukraine is still free.” Biden also voiced support for reforms to the UN Security Council, signalling Washington’s openness to expansion and changes within the body.
