Russia presented a draft UN Security Council resolution on Ukraine

NEW YORK, 16 March 2022, (TON): Russia’s proposed UN Security Council draft resolution on Ukraine calls for a ceasefire to evacuate all civilians.

The draft resolution underlines deep concern at reports of civilian casualties, including children, as well as “the deteriorating humanitarian situation in and around Ukraine, the growing number of internally displaced persons and refugees in need of humanitarian assistance.”

In addition, the call of UN Secretary General António Guterres to return to the path of dialogue and negotiations is supported.

The document also calls for a ceasefire for the rapid, safe, voluntary and unhindered evacuation of all civilians and the need for all parties to agree on humanitarian pauses.

Russia’s draft UN Security Council resolution on Ukraine also calls for funding for the UN’s humanitarian response program.
