Dan Negrea, the U.S. representative to the UN Economic and Social Council, told a meeting of the United Nations Security Council that Russia’s decision to launch its full-scale invasion of Ukraine has become a strategic disaster.
According to an Ukrinform correspondent, Dan Negrea made this statement at a meeting of the UN Security Council.
“Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has been a strategic disaster. Its oil refineries are ablaze... Moscow cannot achieve its goals on the battlefield. Escalation will not change that and only risks making the disaster worse. This war must end now. Enough is enough,” Negrea said.
The U.S. diplomat called on UN member states to immediately cease support for Russia’s war effort, arguing that the conflict has no military solution.
“That includes Iran, which has supplied UAVs to Russia for use in Ukraine, and Cuba, which is prolonging the war by allowing thousands of mercenaries to fight on Russia’s side,” he stated.
