日米欧、侵攻2年でロシア非難 総会、安保理会合も決議なし―国連

 【ニューヨーク時事】ニューヨークの国連本部で23日、ロシアのウクライナ侵攻開始から24日で2年を迎えるのに合わせ、総会本会議と安保理閣僚級会合が開かれた。ウクライナや日米など50カ国超と欧州連合(EU)はロシアを「国際法違反だ」と非難し、軍の即時撤退を求める共同声明を出した。
 昨年の侵攻1年では、平和の早期実現を求める総会決議を141カ国の賛成多数で採択したが、今年は総会、安保理ともに決議案の提出は見送られた。昨年10月に始まったイスラエルとイスラム組織ハマスの衝突を巡り、イスラエル擁護の姿勢を取り続ける米国への不満を反映し、票数が減りかねないとの計算があったとみられる。(2024/02/24-10:48)

Japan, Others Slam Russia as Ukraine War Reaches 2nd Anniv.


More than 50 countries, including Japan and the United States, and the European Union issued a joint statement Friday condemning Russia for its invasion of Ukraine as Saturday marks the second anniversary of the start of the invasion.
   The joint statement condemned the invasion as a "flagrant violation of international law" and demanded the immediate withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine.
   The joint statement came as a plenary meeting of the U.N. General Assembly and a ministerial meeting of the U.N. Security Council were held to mark two years since the war began.
   Marking the first anniversary last year, the General Assembly adopted a resolution calling for early peace by a majority vote of 141 countries. But this year, no motion to adopt such a resolution was submitted to the General Assembly or the Security Council, possibly because of concerns that the number of votes for such a resolution might decrease, reflecting criticism of the Unites States' pro-Israel stance on the conflict between Israel and the Islamic group Hamas in Gaza, which started last October.
   On Friday, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba attended both the General Assembly and Security Council meetings, seeking support for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's peace plan and asking for the provision of arms.
