Live reporting by Faith Ridler, with Deborah Haynes in Ukraine, Dominic Waghorn in Poland and Diana Magnay in MoscowCrowds have braved the cold and rain to gather in Trafalgar Square to mark the eve of a grim milestone: the first anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The Le Berlaymont in Brussels, Belgium, has the Ukrainian flag projected on its side in a photograph shared to social media by Ursula von der Leyen. In around two hours, UN members states will vote in the General Assembly to call for the withdrawal of Russian troops and a"just and lasting peace" for Ukraine.Ms Woodward said:"I think this is a significant moment a year from Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine, where we expect to see the majority of UN member states stand four-square behind this call for Russia to withdraw and for us to find a just and lasting peace.
It comes hours ahead of the one-year anniversary of the war with Russia, which Vladimir Putin thought would be over in a matter of days.Ukraine is now calling for the West to provide modern fighter jets - but NATO leaders are pushing back against the idea. Western leaders do not believe Ukraine will invade Russia - rather that they could use weapons from the West to conduct strikes on Russian military targets.
Instead, Ukraine and Russia are now locked in a grinding war that has led to thousands of deaths and shows no signs of ending soon. "Stalin was a villain, but a good manager, because he couldn't be lied to. But nobody can tell Putin the truth," another source said. The propaganda around the war and Mr Putin's demands for loyalty have meant his advisors are increasingly telling him what he wants to hear.
He had said earlier that Iran is"steadfast" in its commitment to upholding the principles enshrined in the UN.
Who's hair is she wearing?
Who were aggressors in Afghanistan?
This is how it ends!
Don’t question the Empire
International law isn’t real
That would make all countries supplying arms to Ukraine on the wrong side.
Ok, I agree with that ! Completely. But how about USA supplying weapons to Israel, aggressor of Palestinian territories and people for 56 years ?
Ha ha,em de EU/US en NATO levert gratis wapens aan Oekraïne! Hoe gek wil je het hebben?
Good luck getting China to give a shit about international law 😂
And does Barbara think Russia will give a dam. I’ll answer that .. No! 🤔
Its illegal under international law? Yeah? And what are you going to do about it? Cowardly country.
So USA & Britain weren't aggressors when they invaded Iraq back in 2003 BWoodward_UN? You seem to selectively follow the same rules that you now accuse others of breaking.
The US and NATO have made created massive mess. Chaos by warmongering profiteers.
Who determines who the aggressor is please? And what has happened so far to states or institutions who in time past supplied arms to aggressors (especially in conflicts in Africa)
