From Meanwhile In Ukraine: President Zelenskyy spoke at the UN Security Council. The main points:
- The President called for reforming the UN in order to give the General Assembly a real opportunity to overcome the veto;
- “The veto should not serve as a weapon for those obsessed with hatred and war,” Zelenskyy said;
- Says that the UN is at an impasse regarding Russian aggression, and humanity no longer trusts the UN when it comes to protecting the sovereign borders of nations
- President Zelenskyy calls for the introduction of a system of prevention of aggression through early response;
- Russia should completely withdraw its troops, including the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation “or those leaky troughs that will remain from it during the war”;
- Ukraine should have effective control over our entire state border and exclusive economic zone in the Black and Azov seas;
- Reminded that this (top 2 points) is the “Ukrainian peace formula” and it is written literally from the principles of the UN Charter and the resolutions adopted by the General Assembly.
- Zelenskyy’s speech did not end with a hammer blow to Nebenza’s head, like Russian representative expected
