Ukraine , Ukrainegate , 26 , March , 2022 | War News
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky called for reform of international security institutions. He stated this during his speech at the 20th Doha Forum in Qatar .
Quote
“I am grateful to the UN General Assembly – to all those states that support the resolutions concluded on the principle of justice, on Russia’s war against Ukraine and its consequences.
But we see that the UN and all other international structures do not have the necessary internal strength to return people to basic values. To restore peace to countries. (…) We need a real reform of international institutions, UN mechanisms to ensure security, “said the Ukrainian President.
He believes that the reason for the inefficiency of international security institutions is internal injustice.
“Because internal justice is not ensured in these structures. The voice of the privileged there still drowns out the voice of the majority. It’s not fair.
And it is injustice that is the basis of what Russia is doing against Ukraine now. Using, in particular, his privileges in international organizations, “Zelensky stressed.
In addition, Russia is using the world’s fear of a nuclear threat.
Quote
“The fear that Russia is deliberately spreading. Boasting that it can destroy not only this or that nation with nuclear weapons, but also life on earth in general.
There is a serious political debate in the world right now about what to do if Russia uses tactical nuclear weapons … Or other weapons of mass destruction, including chemical weapons.
In the 1990s, Ukraine gave up the world’s third largest nuclear arsenal. It was the greatest contribution to global protection against nuclear disaster that has ever been made. In exchange for this contribution, our state received written promises of security from the strongest states in the world. In particular, from Russia.
But such promises did not guarantee. And one of those states that promised us security went to war against Ukraine. The highest manifestation of injustice that could ever be seen!
So, what conclusion will other states draw from this? The conclusion is that you need nuclear weapons, right? To protect yourself from attack … It’s extremely dangerous! For all “, – Zelensky declared.
He noted that the reform of international structures is necessary “so that those who are 28 times more do not think they can afford anything. And that the nuclear status of the state does not serve as a permit for any injustice against other states.”
