More than 50 nations have urged Russia to cease all hostilities in Ukraine and return to negotiations for a just, lasting peace, as reported by UATV English. This demand was made during an emergency UN Security Council session held the prior day, according to a statement issued by Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen. The UN asserts that Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine contravenes the UN Charter and international law principles, severely threatening global peace and security.
The signatories implored both Russia and Ukraine to halt strikes on civilian facilities and facilitate dialogue to avert further loss of innocent lives. They emphasized the futility of continuing the conflict without a diplomatic resolution. US envoy Dan Negrea pledged US support for mediating between Moscow and Kyiv. Meanwhile, Ukraine's envoy highlighted the urgent need for weapons to protect civilians, acknowledging production challenges but pleading for the allocation of existing Patriot interceptors.
Ukraine is also mobilizing a global coalition to boost anti-ballistic missile production exponentially.
Ambassador Tom Fletcher of the UN Humanitarian Affairs urged the UN Security Council to adopt a resolution demanding Russia's immediate cessation of hostilities, troop withdrawal from Ukraine, and establishment of a demilitarized zone on Russia's border.
