President Joe Biden delivered his farewell address to world leaders at the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, seeking to burnish his foreign policy legacy amid international turmoil.

"This is the fourth time I've had the great honor speaking to this assembly as president of the United States," Biden said as he began his remarks. "It will be my last. I've seen a remarkable sweep of history."

Biden also took a moment, near the end of his speech, to poignantly reflect on his decision to end his campaign for reelection.
