US President Joe Biden in the virus address spoke about the violence Asian Americans have endured since the start of the coronavirus pandemic and condemned it, saying "it is wrong, it is un-American and it must stop."

 In what he called "vicious hate crimes" committed against Asian Americans, President Biden said, "Too often, we've turned against one another."

 The Democratic president decried "vicious hate crimes against Asian Americans who have been attacked, harassed, blamed and scapegoated" over the pandemic, which originated in China.
