Again Russia’s Presidency of #UNSC ~ one of first events is Russia’s justification for the forced adoption and reeducation of Ukrainian infants and children in informal SecCo meeting twitter.com/estoniaun/stat…
⚠️🤯Shameful & humiliating for #UNSC that its next president:
— Estonia in UN | #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦 (@EstoniaUN) March 31, 2023
- fights a war of aggression against its neighbour
- commits most horrendous atrocities
- threatens the world with nuclear weapons
- is led by a war criminal with standing arrest warrant from #ICC#InsecurityCouncil pic.twitter.com/pETHcsJYtx
#Russia Presidency of UN Security Council for April begins today - Ukraine Ambassador reflects Kyiv’s outrage and disappointment at the UN ~ More on Monday @CBSNews| UnitedNations twitter.com/SergiyKyslytsy…
Can you imagine such blood thirsty despots as: Adolf Hitler; Saddam Hussein; or Pol Pot presiding over UN Security Council, charged with preserving global peace & harmony?

La Russie assure en avril 2023 la présidence tournante du Conseil de sécurité de l'Onu. De nombreuses questions se posent sur cette présidence edans un contexte de guerre #Ukraine. Le Kremlin a fait savoir vendredi qu’il comptait « exercer tous ses droits » à la tête des 15.

Russia-Ukraine war: Will there be a spring counteroffensive? apnews.com/article/2a57e3…
April is a special month in recent Bosnian history. War against Bosnia began in April 1992. And, sometimes it seems like it never stopped 💔 but just continues through different means. Time to reflect again, respect written history based on facts and abide by the ICTY judgments. twitter.com/MTokaca/status…
Ovako je bilo 5. aprila 1992. godine na Vrbanja mostu. Čovjek kojeg spašavamo je Amir Grahić. Uspio sam mu kravatom povezati potkoljenicu da ne iskrvari. Fotografiju je napravio Danilo Krstanović, fotoreporter Oslobodjenja. pic.twitter.com/3urTTOQVkA
