Russia-Ukraine conflict rages on its 574th day.
"The use of veto is an absolutely legitimate tool laid out in the Charter," Lavrov says / Photo: AFP.Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov defended his country's use of veto power at the UN Security Council as a"legitimate tool" of international relations.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken used a UN Security Council session attended by his Russian counterpart to accuse Moscow of crimes against humanity in Ukraine. A United Nations expert has urged the United States to reconsider its decision to supply Ukraine with cluster munitions, saying these could harm civilians even decades after the end of the conflict there, a letter published showed.
The new weapons aid package is expected to be announced on Thursday will include the second tranche of cluster munitions fired by a 155-millimeter Howitzer cannon, the official said. At the Security Council meeting held on Wednesday during the annual high-level U.N. General Assembly in New York, Michel will call for"a just peace that respects the U.N. Charter and its core principles — the territorial integrity of a sovereign nation."
Russia asked the court on Monday to throw out the case, claiming Kiev's legal arguments were"hopelessly flawed" and that Moscow had not actually invoked the genocide treaty when it used the term genocide. "Last night, Russians repeatedly attacked Poltava region. Our air defence system did a good job against enemy UAVs ," he said.
"And it is a clear Russian attempt to weaponize the food shortage on the global market in exchange for recognition for some, if not all, of the captured territories," said Zelenskyy.
