  1. “We are in no need of further reminders of the consequences of the alternative. I now resume my functions as President of the Council. The representative of the Russian Federation has asked for the floor to make a further statement.”

  2. “We cannot afford repeat cycles of approaching the precipice of disaster only to walk back at the very last moment. Too much is at stake. To that end, the United Arab Emirates strongly urges a cessation of hostilities throughout Ukraine and the vigorous pursuit of a just and lasting peace. Only by abiding with the Charter will the end of this conflict enshrine an inclusive and stable security architecture for Europe. Only by abiding with the Charter will the end of this conflict preserve sovereignty as the foundational building block of our open and cooperative international order, for the benefit of all of us. We are under no illusions of the difficulty of the diplomacy required to end this war. But the countries with the most ability to influence the future course of events are seated around this table.”

  3. “At the same time, the world must contend with an impaired post-pandemic economic recovery and debt crisis. The multilateral system is weighed down with divisions and polarization at precisely the moment when it needs to rise up and meet the existential challenge of climate change and create a blueprint for the sustainable development agenda and economic growth. A constant call echoes from every corner of the globe in support of a peaceful resolution to this conflict. Member States have kept the faith with the Charter of the United Nations, and therein lies our hope and a blueprint for what happens next. In large majorities, countries have repeatedly voted for an end to this war that preserves Ukraine’s sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity. It is time for a serious effort to that end.”

  4. “Outside the theatre of war, Europe is again threatened by the dynamics that once divided it into two rival camps. Political, economic, social and cultural links — optimistic bonds of community that once brought the continent together at a time of great promise — are being progressively and almost irreparably unwound. Such a decoupling will have profound implications for the future of Europe, and around the world. The war’s impact on the global economy and on trade in commodities, energy and food has been discussed extensively in the Council and other forums. Today we contend with the once unthinkable, but now tangible, prospect of a nuclear disaster. Countries around the world are affected every day by this war and its consequences, with no diplomatic reprieve on the horizon.”

  5. “It has killed thousands, displaced millions and inflicted billions of dollars of damage to critical infrastructure. A generation of families is forever changed. Children are growing up with the trauma of living under constant bombardment. Fathers are on the front lines instead of at home. Mothers are seeing the responsibility to provide both sustenance and security fall disproportionately on their shoulders. Ukraine’s fertile fields, which only recently fed hundreds of millions around the world, have transformed into battlefields, criss-crossed by hundreds of kilometres of front lines, marked by trenches reminiscent of the First World War and a terrifying display of the capabilities of the most advanced military technologies of this century. While this may be a European war in terms of geography, it is most certainly a global concern.”

  6. “I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the representative of the United Arab Emirates. I thank Under-Secretary-General Izumi Nakamitsu for her briefing, and I welcome Ukraine’s participation in today’s meeting. As we have stated repeatedly in the Chamber, it is vital to safeguard weapons during their transfer, storage and deployment. And, in particular, we wish to echo the High Representative’s call for vigilance against the risks of their diversion. We continue to urge all the parties to take concerted steps, with responsibility and transparency, to mitigate the risks associated with arms transfers in that context. And we call on the Security Council to ensure uniform compliance with all its relevant resolutions. For 16 months, this war has devastated Ukraine.”
