At its last meeting in the UN Security Council, Russia exercised the right of a permanent member and vetoed a resolution condemning the Kremlin’s pseudo-referendums in Ukraine and calling not to recognize any changes to Ukraine’s borders.
Details
At the beginning of the meeting, the American Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield said that in case of a veto by the Russian Federation, the document would be submitted to the UN General Assembly, where states do not have such a right to “show that the world is still on the side of sovereignty and protection of territorial integrity.” The text of the resolution was not made public.

“The result of the vote on the draft resolution is as follows: “for” – ten countries, one – “against”, four abstained (China, India, Gabon and Brazil – ed.). The draft resolution was not adopted due to a vote “against” a permanent member of the Council,” said Ambassador Nicolas de Rivière, head of the UN Security Council.
Recall
At a meeting of the UN Security Council, the United States planned to present a resolution condemning Russia for the so-called “referendums” in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine.
