UN Meeting Highlights Global Condemnation of Russia's Actions in Ukraine

At a United Nations Human Rights Council meeting in Geneva, representatives from countries including France, Britain, Canada, Japan, and Peru condemned Russia's actions in Ukraine as violations of international principles. Norway's foreign minister criticized Russia's invasion, while a group of European diplomats walked out during a Russian ambassador's speech, displaying Ukrainian symbols. Russia cites security concerns and NATO expansion as reasons for its military presence, which Kyiv and Western allies reject, accusing Russia of territorial aggression. The UN Security Council remains deadlocked due to Russia's veto.
