new crane, however, over the past as is always the case, next needs for outweighing finance. at this time. it is likely that the civilian populations going ability will increase in the coming months with the arrival of winter and given the serious damage done to energy infrastructure. as such, colleagues, it is urgent that attacks against civilian infrastructure. moreover, the presence of mind in ukraine is also a source of grave concern. because in addition to that impacts on the civilian population, in particular on girls and boys, the presence of these devices affect the humanitarian communities ability to operate safely. of course, and grabbing, they pose grave risks to in the medium and long term care. if urgent, this mining work does not get underway, the ukraine's agricultural sector will face grave challenges in the next sewing

season. as such, we urge parties to reach an agreement which will make it possible to renew the black sea green initiative. that initiative has been crucial in mitigating the impact of this war on global food security. mister president, my country repudiate in the strongest possible terms, any threat of the use of nuclear weapons. and as it is timely to recall, the communicate released in january in which nuclear weapon states stated that a nuclear war must never be fought in elite. in this same vein, it is regrettable that we have not yet seen the establishment of a safety militarized zone around the nuclear power plant in jeopardy. and this, in spite of the recommendations issued by

a yay. and also in spite of the appeals launched by the secretary general and the international community, we urge parties to heed this, these appeals urgently wrong. i would conclude that the most effective way of protecting the civilian population and of ensuring the provision of humanitarian assistance is a cessation of hostilities. we will never let up, in, insisting on the need to seek out paths for dialogue and diplomacy, which might lead us to putting an end to this wall. thank you, mister president, se lives on. i think the representative of mexico for their statement and i'll give for france. we should put to president. i thank you mr. carla rydell and miss brown for their briefings. 8 months after launching as war of aggression, russia has crossed

a new threshold. it is indiscriminately pounding and has been for 10 days. the tiles of your grain and did deliberately chose to strike civilian infrastructure and particular energy infrastructure in give in to me. in net pro. russia is not even trying to hide the crimes. it's committing your life. russia is violating the founding principles of the united nations and the not northern standards that stem from it, namely banning aggression, peaceful settlement of disputes sovereignty of state. and they respect for territorial integrity, the united nations general assembly, unequivocally literally and overwhelmingly condemned these attacks on our charter by targeting civilians. russia is deliberately hi,

lynching. international humanitarian law. it is vainly trying to break the morale of the ukrainian nation by indiscriminately striking against the ukrainian towns and cities. russia wants to terrorize by destroying essential civilian infrastructure. in particular, in the energy sector, russia in tends to lead to energy and heating shortfalls. as the winter is approaching, it is counting on this suffering over the civilians, including women, children, and the elderly, who all of the partners of ukraine stand with it. j. france has mobilized the means to help ukraine this winter mis, mister president burge or russia to comply with international humanitarian law. and to allow the access for humanitarians to civilian populations who are in the as territories, wouldn't it claims to have occupied, as well as 2 prisoners of war,

including those which are detained in russia. we are particularly worried about them, the atrocities and of the destruction which result from the vis, aggression could constitute war crimes, and their perpetrators have to be held accountable on the 22nd of september. last in this council, a minister of foreign affairs miss catherine collin. i stated that they would be no impunity for the criminals of international criminal court has to move forward swiftly in its work by going up as high as possible up the chain of responsibility. and france supports together with many partners, a collection of evidence, a thorough inquiry mechanism, as well as national and international jurisdictions as president. it is now been solidly documented that the russian armed forces to use iranian drones in ukraine

and notably too indiscriminately bomb civilian infrastructure. and the provision of this equipment by iran to russia is a violation of resolution 2231. as we stated together with our partners from germany and u. k. in the letter center today to members of the consult with the european union yesterday with adopted new sanctions against iranian entities and individuals implicated in the production and transfer of the drones. france supports the appeal by ukraine to the secretariat, to investigate and report to the members of this council in line with its mandate of whole remote france demands that iran immediately sees any and all form of support to li, warm of aggression launched by russia against ukraine. it demands at russia in iran cease my allergic resolution 20 to 31. france condemns. furthermore,

the complicity of belarus who was territory continuous being used for missile or drone strikes against ukraine. and finally, mister president, the general assembly vote last week was final. good. russia is alone and massively condemned by international community. ukraine, on the other hand, is strengthened by international solidarity. we will continue for supporting the ukrainian people for as long as is necessary. all of the humanitarian economic and military support that they will need will be provided to them to exercise their right to legitimate defense and safeguard their freedom. i thank you. i think the representative of france for his statement, i know, give the floor to the representative of kenya. thank you mister president. i thank and the secretary general rosemary, the color and miss dennis brown for their briefings. it is regrettable,

mister president, that rather than a resort to dialogue and diplomacy to and this conflict, we are seeing an escalation of military activity that sustained targeting of civilians and objects indispensable to survival of the civilian population. including residential homes, health facilities, shelters, as well as power and water infrastructure. he's a violation of international law and international humanitarian blo. civilians continued to bear the brunt of the conflict in albany areas as witnessed in cave and cities in east and south of ukraine. we convey our condolences to the british families and wished a quick recovery to all the victims. also allow me are the persistent threats

being made of the use of weapons of mass destruction. we continued to, i'd for the protection of all nuclear installations, including this operation, nuclear power plant. the continued intensification of conflict will only further undermine the prospect of a longer term negotiated peace settlement. it could also give way to their strengthening or armed alliances in preparation for a protracted war that could cause their fragility, among currently stable economies in europe and beyond gain. yet they are for continues to call for an immediate decision of facilities to allow for dialogue for a long term solution. in the meantime, gainer space or things, the human bodies and agencies, as well as other institutions and governments for their steadfast efforts to

alleviate suffering in every possible way. we continue to call for this you and agencies to be granted and hindered human children that says that those in need mr. president, in already 40 secure regions, especially in africa, new to extreme weather conditions and conflict. the war in ukraine as was in the situation. it has disrupted global food supply chains, creating shortages and sharp increases in praises. the black sea green initiative and the agreement to ensure unimpeded exports of grass and food and for the allies that world market. while, while a promising start and we continue to advocate for its maintenance, we also ige that any effort to deploy emergency food and energy security mechanisms

in industrialized countries, we accompanied by effort to transform for systems in food insecure regents. a major part of this endeavor would be making the necessary investments to ensure that africa is food self sufficient. is the president. the last 2 world was came as a surprise. we do not want this war in ukraine to be remembered as the beginning of that one war or for it to lead to the fracturing of the global governance system . it is high time that all states, directly and indirectly involved in this conflict to open channel of communication . they should use there should use them to explore the conditions that can lead to a decision of facilities followed by a negotiation that,

that dress as the wine ukraine, and stabilizes the european security to order. it is also time for stairs with inference, rich and vision for that there will global order to begin a conversation on the next steps to advance a worldwide demand for a dialogue regarding your grain and ada major security to flash points. it is also time for security to cancel reform efforts to accelerate without reform to permanent membership. the present format will lose its relevance and be overtaken by competing multilateral arrangements gainer adrian. once again, it's respect for the sovereignty. there sorta integrity and political independence of ukraine. i thank you. so i think he representative of kenya for that statement. and i'll give the floor to the representative of china.

mister president. and he was the recent period he has witnessed continued intensification of conflict on the ground in ukraine, the constantly deteriorating of humanitarian situation and the other bleaker prospects for peace, which china finds most concerning barbie with the crisis. nearly a month long as taken the heavy toe and ordering people because the world, especially developing countries under tremendous stress and exposed global economic development to severe shocks. and yes, on the must presented to complete some become the other more prolonged, expanded, and complicated. make every effort to mitigate discriminatory consequences contain it's a spill of effects and work tirelessly together to promote the asked the escalation and cooling done of the situation and dearly realization of ceasefire and cessation

of hostilities to day. i wish to emphasize the following 3 imperative here, 1st, to effectively comply with international, commended henry law and international human at had a law is a code of conduct that part is in a conflict situation must all abide by siblings and civilian facilities should, should be fully protected and all parties should facilitate the evacuation of people and to positions of him anytime relief, nuclear power plants, energy pipelines, bridges another critical infrastructure of great importance to public safety and social stability, and should not be the target of ministry attacks. all parties involved should exercise maximum restraint, avoid words and actions that accessibility confrontation, and course miscalculation and prevent the conflict from further escalating and expanding and from sliding to a more dangerous, dangerous, frank. second,

to step up continuously. human determined assistance that nearly 8 months of intense conflict have led to a severe shortage of supplies in many places and the basic public surfaces, such water, electricity, heating, and medical care are to be called to secure, secure as winter pr approaches. millions of people, especially women, showing and other vulnerable groups need to rely on clement, an aid to eke out a living. china appreciate the efforts of international human to their agencies and ukraine's nate nibble countries to mitigated to him in a token crisis, and call song international community. to continue to provide assistance to crying under the principles of humanity, neutrality, impartiality, and independence. and to continue to happy snape and conscious the shared pressure in order to ensure the proper resettlement of old conflict affected people. either

3rd, your carry or to make every effort to be contained. despite the fact in the era of globalization, the implementation of all round indiscriminate sanctions, the only ex accelerate transmission of the crisis, push up international commodity prices. these stabilize the global industrial and to supply chain and leave all countries in the world. not least, developing countries exposed to the deleterious impact the international community should get united and work together to maintain the ant interrupted operations of global food, energy, and financial markets and remove politic obstacles. international, economic and trade on cooperation, maintaining and expanding the return of ukrainian or russian food and fertilizers to the international market is important for stabilizing global food prices and securing the supply of agriculture right products. china support de continued effective implementation of the black sea green initiative and the memorandum on

the export of russian food and fertilizers. this person with peace is the fundamental solution to the humanitarian crisis, ukraine. and the only way to achieve lantern piece, mr. ability in ukraine and to reach me at large and no matter how great difficulties in china, cesar, the door to a political setting cannot be closed. the process of diplomatic negotiations cannot be stored and efforts to stop the war and a premier talked cannot be slackened. the facts above the past 8 month have proven their sanctions in prussia, block, confrontation, and political isolation are not effect ways to soft crisis, which is the international community should focus on encourage and peace talks and seeking a political solution by persuading the parties to resume peace talks and stop lighting at an early date in an effort to achieve the soonest, a peaceful solution to the crisis. who will the will shyness position on the

ukraine issue is as clear as it is consistent there. we empathize with the ukraine people, footer plight. chuck nice, put forward a 6 point initiative and human determined situation, ukraine and, and international food security cooperation initiative. and as provided batches of emergency committee turn assistance to ukraine, who as a responsible country william china, we will continue to play the construct role promoting peace talks and continue to make the positive contributions to alleviate the feminist herman crisis. thank you, mr. president. joe, remember i thank a representative of china far that statement and i'll give the floor to the weapons and give it india. thank you, mr. president. let me begin by thanking you. s g rosemary decarlo and you end up

event on humanity in coordinator in your grin. miss dennis bron but at a respectable savings on the situation in your calling with regard to the protection of civilians, only humana darian situation. india continues to remain content over the situation in ukraine. you conflict as a result that in loss of life and conquest, mercedes what it to be, but particularly what a woman, children and elderly, made millions becoming homeless and forced to take shelter in neighboring countries . reports of attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure in recent weeks. he is deeply worrying the read rate of grave concern. in this regard, international principles and juris president, less responsibility on parties, the conflict to ensure that civilians and civilian infrastructure are not targeted in situations of conflict. civilians in conflict affected areas need safe. i mean

dirt and copied access to basic services often provided by mandating workers. as we have been reiterating in this council hall mandate in aid and assistance must be primarily guided by the universal principles of humanity, neutrality, impartiality, and independence. these measures must not be for mister president since the beginning of the conflict in ukraine. and he has consistently called for immediate cessation of hostilities and an end to the violence. and he has called upon both sides to return to the part of diplomacy and dialogue. and also expressly support for all diplomatic efforts to in the conflict. we believe that no solution can be at the cost of innocent life. or the prime minister has spoken to the presidents of ukraine and russia on multiple locations, and reiterated in gas position and gas tanks need to support all such efforts him

to be escalation. the impact of a grain conflict is not just limited to europe. the conflict is accept waiting consent, heard foot party lies and fuel security, particularly in the developing countries. it is necessary for all of us to adequately appreciate the importance of could the affordability and accessibility on these critical issues for the global sot open market must not become an argument to perpetuate iniquity and promote discrimination. in this context, we hope that the greenville agreed in june will be implemented by all parties. honestly. however, we believe this alone may not be sufficient to address the security concerns. mr. president and yes, approach to the ukraine conflict will continue to be people centric. on our part, we had providing both to meditating assistance to green and economic support to

some of our neighbors in the global out and nomic defense human as they stared at the escalating costs of food, of fuel and fertilizers, which has been a consequential follow up of the ongoing conflict, we hope that the international committee will continue to respond positively to the cause for communicating assistance. we support calls are doing for guarantees of safe passage to deliver essentially meditating medical supplies. and yeah, so far despised qual, consignments of mandate in a to ukraine and stance. we need to do more in conclusion with the president. let me reiterate that the global order is anchored in the principles of the un charter international law and respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity of all states. i think you should m f c. i thank the representative of india statement and i'll give the floor to the representative of the united arab emirates mister

president. i'd like to begin by thanking undersecretary general rosemary, the carlo and resident coordinator, denise brown for their briefings. as we heard today, a significant percentage of critical civilian infrastructure including power stations and water supply infrastructure has either been damaged or destroyed. and just one week, a 3rd of ukraine's power stations are reported to have been knocked up the electricity grid at a critical time, leaving people without gas for cooking and heating with winter approaching as the war continues. ukrainians needs for humanitarian aid are compounded further. the international community must step up its support to alleviate the suffering of civilians and ensure that their basic needs are covered. to this end the we announced a $100000000.00 us dollars in humanitarian, 8 to crane. earlier this week. however, other parts of the world cannot be neglected, we must ensure that those most need globally,

do not become an afterthought. access remains a major hurdle for humanitarian organizations, particularly in the areas witnessing the most intense fighting and eastern ukraine . those unable to escape the fighting, such as people with disabilities, the elderly and the sick have become vulnerable to shifting battle lines. we commend the efforts of humanitarian organizations in this context and urge cooperation by the parties to resolve all impediments to access. we once again reiterate our call on parties to abide by their obligations under international law, including international humanitarian law, to ensure the protection of civilians and civilian infrastructure, including energy infrastructure. civilian objects must never be a target of attacks. mister president, despite the deeply concerning developments in the conflict, we have seen some movement between the parties that has led to tangible,

positive outcomes on concrete issues. lament him towards broader negotiations is still lacking. prisoner exchanges, including the exchange, announced earlier this week showed the potential for positive outcomes. the agreements to facilitate the export of food and fertilizers were significant and positive steps that contributed to decline and the index for global food prices. nevertheless, the full implementation expansion and extension of the agreements remains critical to address global food insecurity. compromise, diplomacy, and dialogue remain the only way forward to prevent further suffering. we commend the united nations and others who have worked to facilitate constructive engagement between the parties. mister president, the world once peace and ukraine, a piece that is sustainable, and in accordance with the un charter and international law, there is no alternative to the station of hostilities throughout ukraine and

a peaceful resolution to the conflict. thank you mister president. here to miss, i thank the representative of the united arab emirates for his statement and i'll give the floor to the representative of brazil. thank you mister president. let me start by thinking both our refers for informative interventions. how make so comments on the subject? first, he regrets that doctor, nearly a conflict in ukraine disobedient population continues to suffer. there is no justification product tax better than that, but dated on c, v, and targets such as those required to give and other major opinion cities in the last few damage to the energy sector. creature, according to report by our embassy here,

has reached its 30 percent of its generating capacity. is particularly what is the reverse of becoming and when we add to the human that in crisis to continue on, the reports of civilian casualties were not ex again, cvd and infrastructure attest to the urgency of opening channels after many died in dialogue between the parties. but as the recall's, the obligations of all state and the international law and of all parties and international humanitarian law, nissan launches and rona strikes, must be halted unimpeded access or from any care in the system. so those in need shouldn't be guaranteed by all parties. my 2nd point, we believe it's important to discuss our collective response to the conflict in our

discussions with other delegations. we know to increased presentation with what is perceived as sufficient efforts by the council to facilitate a peaceful solution. many are disappointed with the fact that divisions have prevailed over what is expected from us. the willingness to engage in dialogue. mister president, the un charter outlaw to war as a legitimate means of resolving conflicts. reaffirming this principle is essential, but not sufficient. in light of our collective responsibilities, this council should actively contribute to all possible efforts toward the ceasefire and to negotiations between the parties. different ideas has been

circulated by other delegations to facilitate direct docs between the parties. the council should explore them, but i'm serious, willing to engage in these efforts and invites other members on see the new pets in order to abbreviate this suffering of the oakland people. and i think i thank the representative of brazil for his statement. i now give the flow to the representative of the united states. thank you, mr. president. and thank you to under secretary gentle decarlo and humanitarian coordinator brown for your briefings. colleagues. russia has shown again and again that it disregards the un charter and international law. we are in this chamber today because of the mounting consequences and human toll of rushes unprovoked and unlawful invasion of its neighbour and fellow un member state. as we just heard,

there are 7700000 ukrainians living as refugees. and over 6000000 more displaced in ukraine, that is nearly one 3rd of the population that cannot go home. nearly half the population needs humanitarian assistance. and as miss brown explained needs will exacerbate in the winter and as needs increase, rushes forces hits civilian infrastructure and humanitarian convoys with renewed relentlessness, undermining the civilian populations ability to survive cold winter temperatures. this includes a massive barrage against ukraine cities on october 10, which the secretary general called quote, another unacceptable escalation. close quote of the war as insecurity.
