US President Joe Biden said Thursday that there is "no place for white supremacists" in the United States.
This came during the "Stand United Summit" event at the White House, to confirm the United States' anti-hate and racism policies.
The summit highlighted the devastating consequences of hate-fuelled violence on US democracy and public safety.
Biden said his country "will remain a democracy and will not allow any hate speech."
He added that advocates of white supremacy "will not have the final say" in the United States.
In this context, the US President made it clear that the hatred "will not disappear completely, but it hides and returns whenever there is an opportunity, which is what happened in recent years."
Biden added that Americans "are united against hate that breeds violence and believe in freedom, equality and dignity."
The conference takes place only eight weeks before the midterm elections, in which Republicans will seek to control Congress.
