Irina Vereshchuk calls on the UN to take concrete action
Vereshchuk is convinced that the shelling of Odessa showed the way to the whole world, in in particular to the President of Turkey and the UN Secretary General, what are their agreements. The shelling of the Odessa port is a violation of all the norms and rules that Russia has assumed as a member of the UN Security Council.
She emphasized that one reaction is not enough. There must be concrete action. Otherwise, the paths will understand that everything is possible for him.
I saw the reaction of the UN, Mr. Guterres, but behind this reaction there must be concrete actions. If there is no action, then this will encourage Putin to think that he can continue his terror both against civilians and in the whole civilized world, because this is a famine that threatens the peoples of Africa today,โ the minister said.
Vereshchuk stressed that Ukraine in the agreements on the unblocking of Ukrainian ports, Ukraine has done everything that depends on it. At the same time, she added that she was interested to see the reaction of the US and Great Britain.
