Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said today at the session of the United Nations Security Council that the UN Charter is being protected by introducing sanctions and exerting comprehensive pressure on the aggressor, as well as by voting for relevant resolutions.
He pointed out that "Ukraine is exercising its right to self-defense." Zelensky called for the UN General Assembly to be given the power to override Russia's veto power, calling it a "necessary step."
He added that it is impossible to stop the war because "the aggressor vetoes all efforts".
"Ukraine considers it unfair that billions of people do not have a permanent representative in the Security Council, while Russia does," Zelensky said, according to the Guardian.
Advocating for the reform of the World Organization, especially for the expansion of the Security Council, he said that "we should not wait for the aggression to end". "It is necessary to act now. Our pursuit of peace should initiate the reform (of the world organization)," said Zelensky.
Immediately after the speech, Ukrainian President left the Security Council session in order not to attend the speech of Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
Bubble........
Dont be silly. Of course Zelenski will listen to Lavrovs speech via a TV screen.
Zelenski walking out is childish. This is serious business and Zelenski needs to listen to what Moscow has to say. But then again maybe Zelenski dont want to hear the truth......
For example; why didnt Kiev honour their signed agreements with Moscow on neutrality??
Why didnt Kiev stop the far right Bandera worshipers from bombarding east Ukraine and killing approx 15000 civilians??
Why didnt Zelenski tell Boris Johnson to mind his own business in april 2022? Russia and Ukraine were about to sign a deal whereby Kiev would stop killing ethnic Russians in the east and not seek nato membership. And Russia agreed to withdraw its troops and Ukraine would stay intact. ??? Now of course thats off the table.
Zelenski should never have listened to Washington, London, Berlin. Instead he will lose the war, lose a large chunk of its land and many hundreds of thousands of soldiers as well as millions who have left and will never return.
Thats a dumb leader. Though to be more accurate, he aint leading much....he has to do what Washington tells him. And the yanks dont care for Russia or Ukraine.

Dear Peter, once again, your are either a liar or willfully blind and ignorant, as your list is pathetically incomplete.
May I kindly ask you to go through the list of countries alphabetically and contact the innocent people of each country.
For example:
Letter A: Afghanistan. Now I know you can’t talk to the millions of American victims. But perhaps you should seek some information as to whether the USA under NATO flag led twenty years of death and destruction in Afghanistan. Or perhaps you forgot this debacle? Unless you are a brainwashed American zombie, most people in the true free world recognize the crimes committed by NATO and the USA in Afghanistan.
Letter B: Bosnia and Hercegovina. Here I’ll ask that you contact two sides: the innocent Serbs in Rep. Srpska who were the victims of American bombs and the SDA radicals in Sarajevo who bombed their own people as a false flag to justify American intervention.
Letter C etc. …hopefully you realize the stupidity of your post.

Zelensky walking out on Lavrov before his speech at the UN is worse than spitting in the Russian Foreign Minister’s face.

As a supposed representative of Ukraine, perhaps a meeting and dialogue with the enemy may save innocent lives. Indeed, it is now a well known fact that the true masters (monsters sp?) in Ukraine, ie. the Anglo-Saxon hegemons, sabotaged both the Minsk Accords and spring 2022 peace talks.
At some point, that appears to be rapidly approaching, negotiations will happen.
To praraphrase Poland’s leader: the Ukrainians should realize they are drowning before it’s too late.

""Ukraine considers it unfair that billions of people do not have a permanent representative in the Security Council, while Russia does," Zelensky said, according to the Guardian."
He is definitely right, but unfortunately, this is a double-edged sword. Both the USA and the USSR/Russia have proven to be far too aggressive to be on the permanent council of an organization that was formed to maintain international peace and security and to achieve cooperation among nations on economic, social, and humanitarian problems.
The USA has taken part directly in the wars in Korea, Vietnam, Laos, Cuba (Bay of Pigs), Dominican Republic, Cambodia, Grenada, Libya, Panama, Haiti, Iraq, Kuwait, Somalia, Serbia and Syria.
The USSR/Russia has taken part directly in the wars in Korea, Vietnam, Egypt (Sinai Peninsula), Angola, Afghanistan, Georgia, Moldova (Transnistria), Tajikistan, internal conflicts (Chechnya and Ingushetia), Ukraine, Syria and Central African Republic.
Not a very good track record for either, especially considering I didn't include any conflicts against Islamic terrorists.
