The United Nations General Assembly is holding a vote as the one-year anniversary approaches

‘The position of the United Nations is unequivocal: We are committed to the sovereignty, independence, unity, and territorial integrity of Ukraine.’

They’re the words of U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres, as he reaffirmed the organisation’s support for Ukraine as Russia’s invasion nears its one-year mark.

On this occasion, Ukraine and Russia are lobbying countries for support ahead of a vote by the 193-member General Assembly.

The U.S. is leading the charge, declaring it will “go down in history”, essentially asking whether countries support Russia or Ukraine.

America’s Ambassador the the U.N. Linda Thomas-Greenfield says the vote will show where all nations stand when it comes to peace.

Ukraine hopes to deepen Russia’s diplomatic isolation by seeking yes votes from nearly three-quarters of the General Assembly.

Kyiv and its allies argue the war is a simple case of one unprovoked country illegally invading another, while Russia portrays itself as battling a “proxy war” with West. #trending #featured
