They will blame everyone, just to justify themselves. The most illustrative was after the downing of a Malaysian Boeing over Donbas by Russian forces with Russian weapons. I know, and you know very well, what the representatives of Russia will say in response to the accusations of these crimes. The massacre in our city of Bucha is just one, unfortunately, of many examples of what the occupiers have been doing on our land for 41 days.Īnd there are many other such places that the world has yet to find out the full truth of: Mariupol, Kharkiv, Chernihiv, Okhtyrka, Borodyanka and dozens of other Ukrainian communities, each of which is like Bucha. They are deliberately creating conditions in the temporarily occupied territories so that as many civilians as possible are killed there. They are even deliberately blowing up shelters where civilians are hiding from air strikes. They are deliberately shooting at columns of civilians on the roads who are trying to escape from the territory of hostilities. They are deliberately blocking cities, creating mass starvation in them. Russian troops are deliberately destroying Ukrainian cities to ashes with artillery and air strikes. Today, it is as a result of Russia's actions on the territory of my state, on the territory of Ukraine, that the most heinous war crimes of all time since the end of World War II are being committed. And if so, what is the point of all other articles? Now the UN Charter is being violated literally from the first article. What is the purpose of our organization? To maintain peace. I would like to remind you of the first article of the first chapter of the UN Charter. Geography may be different, but cruelty is the same. But the world has yet to see what they have done in other occupied cities, in other occupied areas of our country. ![]() Now the world has seen what the Russian military did in Bucha while keeping our city under occupation. It is obvious that the key institution of the world, which must ensure the coercion of any aggressors to peace, simply cannot work effectively. So where is the peace that the United Nations was created to guarantee? Although there is a Security Council, as if nothing happened. So where is the security that the Security Council must guarantee? There is no security. Provokes a global food crisis that could lead to famine in Africa and Asia, and will certainly end in large-scale political chaos in countries where food price stability is a key factor of domestic security. Promotes hatred at the state level and seeks to export it to other countries through its system of propaganda and political corruption. To leave in the country where it sends its troops only ruins and mass graves. To destroy as many ordinary peaceful cities as possible. Inflames wars and deliberately wages them in such a way as to kill as many ordinary civilians as possible. Pursues a consistent policy of destroying ethnic and religious diversity. It destroys the internal unity of states.ĭenies the right of more than a dozen peoples on two continents to self-determination and independent state life. How is this different from what the ISIS terrorists were doing in the occupied territory?Įxcept that it is done by a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council. ![]() Their tongues were torn out only because they did not hear from them what they wanted to hear. Who were raped and killed in front of their own children. Whose limbs were cut off, whose throat was cut. Who were crushed by tanks in civilian cars in the middle of the road. Who were killed in apartments, houses, blown up by grenades. Who were thrown into the well, so that they die there in suffering. Who were shot in the back of the head or in the eye after being tortured. I am addressing you on behalf of the people who honor the memory of the deceased everyday. They killed whole families - adults and children. They executed women outside the houses when approaching and simply calling someone alive. The Russian military searched for and purposefully killed anyone who served our state. It is difficult to find a war crime that the occupiers have not committed there. Yesterday I returned from our city of Bucha, recently liberated from the troops of the Russian Federation. I am sure that all the representatives of the UN member states will hear me today. Dear members of the Security Council and other participants of the meeting!
