Meanwhile, during the Council meeting, India’s Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador T S Tirumurti said while the UN Security Council discusses the nuclear dimension of an unfolding conflict, it must acknowledge that there is a “pressing humanitarian crisis confronting us in Ukraine, where safety and security of innocent civilians including several thousand Indian nationals, in particular, students are at stake.”





In an apparent reference to those nations in the Council that have abstained or not voted against UN resolutions condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Ukraine Ambassador Kyslytsya said “and still shamefully there are a handful of those around us or among us rather, who do nothing. Act now or it might be too late not only for Ukraine but for all of you.”
