  1. “Therefore, the very first step that must be taken right now is very simple. It requires that Russia stop the war and withdraw all its forces from the territory of Ukraine. Once peace has been secured, the international community must turn its efforts to developing more effective measures to protect the fundamental values enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations. They have been trumped by a permanent member of the Security Council, and we must ensure full accountability for the violations of international humanitarian and human rights law committed in Ukraine by the Russian Federation.”

  2. “The international community needs to engage in devising immediate long- term policies that will mitigate the impacts of the war and contribute to long-term resilience to global shocks. In five days’ time, on 10 May, representatives of some 50 countries of Europe and Central Asia will gather in the Polish city of Łódź, at the thirty-third session of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations Regional Conference for Europe, to discuss the very pressing issue of food security and the transformation of agrifood systems. However, we will not solve the food, energy and financial crises if we do not address their root causes. Those are the crisis of values, as you already mentioned today, Madam President, and the crisis of peace. So, in fact, we are facing not just a three-dimensional but a five-dimensional crisis.”

  3. “The event, which was organized in cooperation with the President of the European Commission and the European Council, was meant to serve as a platform for pledging the much-needed additional funds to sustain immediate, life-saving humanitarian assistance for Ukraine. According to early estimates, the conference brought in $6.5 billion in pledges. We are all still struggling to grasp the full implication of the war, but we already know that its consequences go far beyond Ukraine and Europe. The Secretary-General has accurately called the damage to multilateralism caused by the ongoing invasion of Ukraine a three-dimensional crisis that impacts global food, energy and financial security. The full effects of the Russian invasion will be felt in economies and societies around the whole world.”

  4. “As President Duda assured the Secretary-General personally, Poland will not cease to both deliver aid on its own and to be a reliable partner for all United Nations system institutions involved in providing support to Ukraine. The number of persons in need and the volume of assistance that they require increase with every day that the Russian aggression continues. We therefore all need to contribute to the relief efforts alongside the growing Polish aid for both the refugees from Ukraine who are staying in our country — as the Council is probably aware, more than 3 million war refugees have crossed our border during the past two months — and those hiding from bombs in Russian-shelled cities and towns. Today in Warsaw, Poland and Sweden co-hosted a high-level international donors conference for Ukraine.”

  5. “Mr. Gliński (Poland): Let me start by expressing Poland’s appreciation and support for the Secretary- General’s recent trip to Moscow and Kyiv. Each and every effort to restore peace in Ukraine is meaningful, even if we have to deal with an aggressor who shows very little goodwill and trustworthiness, as demonstrated by the very symbolic Russian shelling of Kyiv during the Secretary-General’s stay in the city. I was also in Kyiv and Borodyanka less than two weeks ago and witnessed this war with my own eyes. We Poles were very happy to facilitate the Secretary- General’s trip and to host him on his way from Moscow to Kyiv, especially because he had a chance to meet with the Polish President, Andrzej Duda, and to stay in the city of Rzeszów, which has become a crucial hub for the delivery of assistance to Ukraine and the Ukrainian people.”
