South Korea's Permanent Representative to the UN, Chi Hoon Cha, addressed the UN General Assembly on the situation in Ukraine's temporarily occupied territories. Cha warned that military cooperation between Russia and North Korea, specifically the supply of ballistic missiles and manpower, is a direct violation of UN Security Council resolutions and is prolonging the conflict.
Despite calls to cease this cooperation, it continues unabated, posing significant threats to international peace and security. South Korea urges Russia and North Korea to halt this illegal military collaboration immediately. The ambassador highlighted the sharp increase in civilian casualties, with at least 437 killed and over 2,600 injured in July alone, marking the highest casualty rate since May 2022.
Cha also emphasized the plight of civilians in the temporarily occupied territories, particularly the return of displaced children and other families separated. The UN General Assembly convened on Tuesday to discuss the situation in Ukraine's occupied territories.
