the dialogue under respect resolve disputes. tonight this drives our solidarity with ukraine. it is our collective responsibility. indeed, our obligation here at this table to maintain international peace and security. nothing less. that means we stand up for the sovereignty and territory integrity of every member stace of the united nations. let's be clear. the internationally recognized borders of ukraine have not changed the decision by russia to recognize as independent entities. the non government controlled areas of domestic come to hon. screeches of ukraine does not change those borders. one iota, they did not change in 2014 and they have not changed this week. we urge

the russian federation to reverse this decision. immediately. we urge the russian federation to refrain from further s glittery, unilateral actions, which can only serve to further deepen this crisis. to nice the path for diplomacy, the path for dialogue that we have called on for so long is paris li, narrow the principles of the un charter we hold dear. have already been breached these principles, no risk being further violations. this is the time to show courage, the courage and the time now to pull back from the precipice. the time to return to dialogue and diplomacy. the use of military aggression has no place in our modern world. have we learned absolutely nothing from our history.

these united nations rose from the ashes of 2 world wars, the senseless destruction of that era was born of a belief that military might makes rice. this philosophy applied with modern weaponry, would unleash devastation and human suffering, affecting millions of innocent people. tonight, we stand with the people of ukraine. tonight, we stand with the un charter. we stand with those who even in this dark, are still have the courage and hope to bring us back from this precipice. or resort to military conquest for one state to impose its will unilaterally against another to annex part of its territory has absolutely no place in the 21st century. there is still a choice, a choice to turn from the path of war to the path of diplomacy and dialogue.

the reports received about the movement of troops into certain areas of 2 nets under hans in ukraine. our cause for extreme concern the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity sovereignty and political independence over un member state is unacceptable. in the present circumstances, the security council must act according to its main purpose. as holder of the primary responsibility under the united nations charter for the maintenance of international peace and security. in the exercise of this responsibility, it's actions must be geared towards reduction intentions towards assisting parties in their negotiations. this is our primary rule,

the recourse to alms and confrontation can not lead to lasting peace. in that regard, we call on all parties to exercise maximum restraint and refrained from any action that me further increase tensions on the ground. the time is not for believers belligerent rhetoric, nor for military threats, but to engage truly in a diplomatic process. the means of negotiation have not been exhausted. immediately, these condition is of high order. it means among others, complete and unconditional withdrawal of all military forces as an effective measure for the prevention and removal of threats to peace. parties must abide by the terms of the minsk agreements above all, by its call for a comprehensive cease fire. the monitoring mission of the

o. s. he can assist if granted unrestrained axis in order to verify, identify, and report accordingly, any violation of the ceasefire. furthermore, the parties must allow the rapid safe and unhindered axis unhindered axis of humanitarian assistance to those in need. the protection of civilians, including humanitarian personnel, and persons in venerable situations, must be respected unconditionally. we double our calls for the parties to work constructively, in all relevant instances, such as the normandy format and the trilateral contact group. negotiations must be mindful of the principles of the un charter, including sovereignty, independence, unity and territorial integrity of its member states. negotiations must also

on one hand, take into account the security concerns of all parts of the conflict. and on the other hand, aimed to create the adequate conditions for an inclusive political dialogue, which must reflect the diversity of and include representation from all peoples of the region. brazil does not underestimate the complexity of the current situation, but we insist on dialogue as key to achieve a lasting settlement to this conflict. too much is at stake here. above all the lives of many civilians. we owe them all efforts to bring this crisis to a peaceful solution. i thank you mister president. yes, lulu, i thank you representative of brazil for his statement and i give the floor to the representative. gonna thank you very much, mr. president. and let me begin by 1st of all thanking the secretary general and

you as g was married. the column for the are significant briefings is the secretary geno ganna is grateful to you for your class statements on the situation and ukraine in defense of the charter. there rose bathed international order and our collective secretes mechanism development that are taking place in ukraine. i indeed troubling this. jason has implications not only for your korean and it's immediate need this but also for all our countries. security is indivisible. and they secrete your one is an secrete, your as we indicated in our statement of the council on monday night, gonna deeply regret the decision of the russian federation to naturally recognize the non government control regions of ukraine and to send troops into those regions . the also deeply concerned by the implications of those decisions. we suggest that

the russian federation has turned us back on the misc agreements. and the puff of dialogue required to address any concerns that we have over the implementation of the agreements and related security concerns. we have already report this morning, the statement that you reach out to the president of the russian federation that his country was always open to diplomacy. we edge that, that avowed commitment to diplomacy that the restaurant federation has alluded to, should be back by present actually is that deescalate distribution on the ground and permit an atmosphere for dialogue. we know to have concerned the risk that an escalation of the situation ukraine hold for global peace and security as dr. that know that to the part of conflict rather than piece by the consequences of the actions. we are concerned by reports of the commencement of hybrid warfare against

ukraine, especially on tens vice of cyber attacks against some of this critical infrastructure . to deescalate it's good situation where the russian federation to court reconsider any intention to move troops in today's the origins of ukraine. in response to the purported request by the needs of the separatist regions. for an innovation peacekeeping, by its nature requires the consent of the parties and the impartiality of the peacekeeping. force the president of the russian troops in east ukraine at this time would not fulfil those requirements. if there is a real need, the council should receive of the matter. we edge for com and call upon all parties to maintain the ceasefire needs to ukraine. we are particularly concerned by the high intensity of violations of the cease fire, re sundays, and its consequences on the signal populations. in the dawn bus region. remind all

parties of the need to respect international law intern. i sent you my journal and add the parties to guarantee unimpeded access, william and the 200 systems in both government and non government controlled areas . we condemn any military activity that will deliberately target civilians and civil down infrastructure. i remind all parties of the past notice one believe that exists in international law is the president. it may be begging the question. but nonetheless, worth repeating. ganna our reserve, or at least stands by the sovereignty enter and secretary of ukraine. a bona feet, a member of the united nations whose membership of this organization proviso had guarantees of an internationally recognized board is the same board as of which she joined this organization. we are very about the current developments and they see regions of ukraine would not be just try that again for any party. and encourage are forced to address both immediate and long term interest to diplomacy and

dialogue, as called for by the preamble of the charter mind, all parties to practise tolerance and lived together in peace, one another as good neighbors. finally, we take this opportunity to edge all member states to excise restrains under respective unsettled, but accepted situations across the globe and to our poor. the collective secretes mechanism established you the chance of the united nations. any differences that exists in international relations must be adjusted by peaceful and li gummies. i thank you very much. we'll kind of insurance. of course your book that it, i think the representative gone if a statement to now give the flow to the representative of kenya. thank you mister president. i thank the secretary general for his urgent plea for peace

and under secretary general rosemary decarlo full hub briefing in this grave moment, kenya continues to call for respect for the sovereignty territorial integrity and political independence of ukraine. in line with the core tenants of the united nations charter kenya is deeply concerned by the rapid escalation of the conflict risks following the recognition of the nets and hans as independent states by the russian federation and the continued military escalation. we are concerned that there is a serious risk that a conflict enveloping the whole of the don bus region will occur. present trends holding such a development would instantly lead to significant loss of life, a humanitarian crisis, and a large scale population movement of refugees and internally displaced people.

kenya urgently calls for calm by all parties and their commitment to protecting civilians and civilian objects from any actions. contrary to international law and international humanitarian law. we continue to believe that there is still an opportunity for diplomacy to produce a solution to this dangerous crisis. that required diplomatic steps should seek in the short term for a d escalation of the situation and the limiting of all military maneuvers to prevent sparking a wider conflict. for this to happen, there must also be a state of commitment to negotiations between nato and the russian federation in the middle and long term. such a commitment will need the vision to design a viable security architecture for europe that protects the sovereignty territorial

integrity and political independence of ukraine and other states. while being sensitive to the con, sons of all relevant parties. mister president, we want to believe that this chamber, in light of its stories passed, retained the wisdom and wherewithal to prevent a catastrophic war. we have confidence that the united nations charter embraced as a whole, protects ukraine and all countries. not only those with modest military means, but also the walls nuclear powers. when we consider the recent past of was undertaken by choice. and when the charter and international law were breached, eventually the safety and security of all. busy parties was tragically under mike miss them, president. the membership of this chamber was fundamentally shaped by the states

that emerged victorious from world war 2. and doing so, the charter best told on them a special responsibility that reflected the sacrifices they had made to defeat a unique evil to mankind. we believe that the leaders who designed to days multilateral system, what profoundly humbled by the catastrophic war they have survived so much so that they were inspired to erect the sovereign equality of states as a central pillar of our united nations. as such, we urge all members to recall the ruin from war that has been experienced by more states sitting around this table. it is in this moment of peril that we can powerfully pivot to recommit to the charter. our predecessors bequeathed us a large part of that re commitment would be aided by our listening to the factory general and utilizing his good office as to deliver according to their intended

design. in the coming days, we hope that we will observe the escalation in don bus and that every effort will be made to protect the sovereignty territorial integrity and political independence of ukraine. we further hope that we will benefit from the visionary leadership that the world needs to day in committing to negotiating a lasting european security architecture that laws perceptions of threat and promote corporation. i thank you able to little bit, i think the representative kenya for his statement and i'll give the floor to the representative of gabon messy mrs. belinda. thank you sir. given that i thank the secretary general for his statement as well as for under secretary general monsieur de carla for the information she provided with him for sir. this is the.
