At the UN General Assembly, Brazil voted to condemn Russia’s aggression against Ukraine and demand that Moscow stop fighting and withdraw its military forces. The draft resolution received compelling support and has been approved with 144 votes in favor, 5 against, 35 abstentions.
The draft resolution states that the Russia Federation’s military actions in Ukraine “are on a scale that the international community has not seen in Europe in decades and that urgent action is needed to save this generation from the scourge of war.”
The General Assembly “urges the immediate peaceful resolution of the conflict” and reiterates the its commitment “to the sovereignty, independence, unity and territorial integrity of Ukraine within its internationally recognized borders.”
