It’s great to be +with so many friends here. + +For Joe, diplomacy is personal. It’s why, for more than 50 years, he’s +created deep personal bonds with world leaders. He shows up for our +allies and our partners. He listens and is always eager to debate +complex international issues to find common ground. + +Serving as first lady has be- — of the United States is the honor of my +life. This is our — (applause). Thank you. + +This is our fi- — our United Nations — our final United Nations General +Assembly as president and first lady. So, tonight, I want to take this +moment to celebrate Joe and honor the relationships he’s built with all +of you — (applause) — to honor these relationships with all of you to +shape a brighter future for people around the world. + +Please join me in welcoming my husband, President Joe Biden. (Applause.) + +THE PRESIDENT: (Laughs.) That was worth the trip. (Laughter.) + +Well, welcome, everyone. I’m delighted to see you all. You know, my +fellow leaders and friends we’ve honored here, it’s an honor to welcome +you here tonight. + +I should start off by saying we owe a special thanks tonight to — to +Mayor Bloomberg. He’s not the mayor right now, but he’s still the mayor. +(Laughter.) Mr. Mayor, thank you for all you’ve done. + +I want to begin by quoting someone who I wish was here tonight: my mom, +Catherine Eugenia Finnegan Biden. (Applause.) Growing up, my mom had an +expression. She had a lot of expression. She had a backbone like a +ramrod. But my mom, she used to say, “Joey, remember, never bow, never +bend, never yield, and never give up.” + +Folks, as I said yesterday at the United Nations, I recognize the +challenges the world faces: Ukraine, Gaza, Sudan, Haiti, war, hunger, +poverty, climate change. But my message to you tonight is this: We must +never, ever, ever bow, bend, yield, or give up. And most importantly, we +must never lose faith — lose faith in our abilities to do so much. + +I was first elected to the United States Senate when I was 29 years old, +280 years ago. (Laughter.) Since then, I’ve seen the impossible become — +the impossible become reality, for real. I’ve seen the Berlin Wall come +down. I’ve seen Poland leave the (inaudible) — I shouldn’t go on, I +guess. But I’ve seen apartheid end. I’ve seen humanity pull together to +prevent a nuclear war. I’ve seen war criminals and dictators face +justice and accountability for human rights violations. And I’ve seen +countries in the Middle East make peace. We must always remember. + +In America, I was (inaudible) — I spent a lot of time with Xi of China, +and we were in the Tibetan Plateau, and it was one of my 90-some hours +alone with him. And he looked at me; he said, “Can you define America +for me?” This is an absolutely true story. He said, “Can you define +America for me?” I said, “Yes. In one word: possibilities — +possibilities.” (Applause.) We believe anything is possible. No, I +really mean it. Remember, nothing is impossible. + +And, folks, look, in our time, we turn the page on the — on the — on a +whole range of issues. We turned the page. Nothing is impossible, as I +said, but we turned the page on the worst pandemic in a century. We +defended Ukraine as a tyrant threatened to wipe it off the map. We made +the largest investment in history to fight climate change, the +existential threat to humanity. + +And, folks, time and again — and I mean this sincerely — time and again, +our nation and our world found a way forward. But make no mistake: It +didn’t happen by accident. Nothing was inevitable. It took people like +all of you assembled here tonight refusing to give up, rejecting the +forces that pull us apart, believing that change is possible, and +fighting to make it so every single day. That’s what you in this room +assembled have done. + +Ladies and gentlemen, that’s our change. Together, we can broker deals, +end wars and suffering. We can stop the spread of disease and dangerous +weapons alike. We can make AI +empower people, not shackle them. We can cut our emissions and achieve +our climate ambitions. We can leave our children, literally, a better +world. + +That’s our obligation, and we can. We can do this. + +I can say to you — and I mean this sincerely — I’ve never more +optimistic in my life because of all of you, and I mean it from the +bottom of my heart. + +So, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Keep it up. + +And every time I’d walk out of my grandpop’s house up in Scranton, he’d +yell, “Joey, keep the faith.” My grandmother would go, “No, Joey, spread +it.” Spread it. Spread it. Spread it. (Applause.) + +Folks, remember, nothing is beyond our capacity when we work together. +Nothing at all. + +So, thank you, thank you, thank you for all you’re doing. I appreciate +it very, very much. + +It’s an honor to be with you. Thank you. (Applause.) + +5:54 P.M.
