“I want to begin by thanking Albania for using its presidency to convene this meeting. I also want to thank President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for his words earlier today. As leaders, protecting the sovereignty of our nations is one of our most sacrosanct duties. Any violation is unacceptable. It violates the very Charter of this institution. It violates international law. It violates the peace and security of people. The United Nations was established to save people from the scourge of war. That fundamental principle has guided this institution since it was founded. So, we need to be 100 per cent clear about what is happening right now. A permanent member of the Security Council, Russia, has launched and continues to wage an illegal war.”
