USA: “Russia lied to the UN several times”

“The Russia he lied to the UN Security Council several times, with an unbridled series of conspiracy theories and disinformation, each falsehood more ridiculous than the other, ”said Linda Thomas-Greenfield, American ambassador to the UN. Russia allegedly “violated the United Nations Charter and ignored the global call for an end to the war. We have images that confirm the presence of mass graves in Bucha“. And again: «There are no signs that Russia’s war against Ukraine is abating. Russia has violated the UN Charterhe ignored our global and unified calls to end this war ».

The UN also found out 180 cases of arbitrary detentions, by Russian troops in areas of Ukraine controlled by Moscow, and possible enforced disappearances of local officials, journalists, activists, former army members and other civilians. This was announced by Michelle Bachelet, United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights. Five of these people were found dead and some were taken to Belarus and Russia, while their families were in the dark.

Meanwhile Zelensky states that the Russian army continues to bomb the Azovstal steel plant even though “the civilians have yet to be evacuated. Women and many children are still there. Imagine hell: more than two months of constant bombardment and constant death nearby. It is not clear how many civilians are trapped in the plant. ” The UN and the International Committee of the Red Cross have helped, with two operations, almost 500 civilians to flee the steel mill area so far. In the last few hours, a third UN operation has begun for the evacuation of civilians from Mariupol. Russian President Putin says Moscow is ready to allow the evacuation of civilians from the Azovstal, but only if the military in the plant surrenders.

Since the invasion began, Russian troops have fired over 2,000 missiles About the Ukraine and their fighters have carried out almost 2,700 sorties in the country: Zelensky made it known last night speaking in video link at the charity event “Brave Ukraine”. “In total, during this war, the Russian army launched 2,014 missiles on Ukraine and 2,682 Russian warplane sorties were recorded in our skies. Each of these sorties is the death of our people, the destruction of our infrastructures ”.
