Let us recall that the previous meeting of the Security Council on Ukraine took place on December 16. It was convened due to massive Russian shelling of civilians and critical infrastructure of our country.

At this meeting, the Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the United Nations, Vasily Nebenzya, issued another nonsense. He said that Russia will not accept any scenarios for freezing the war, and Moscow considers Zelensky’s peace initiatives an attempt to gain time to intensify the fight against the Russian Federation. According to Nebenzi, Russia is ready for negotiations, but only with those who can “accept reality and end the war.”.
