After reflecting on the UN’s failure to prevent the war, UN Secretary-General Guterres vowed an additional role, saying that the UN’s role was not over.

“I tell the President and the Ukrainian people that we do not give up. We will continue to work towards a full-scale ceasefire and practical measures.”
President Zelensky said the southern city of Mariupol was the most dangerous right now, accusing Russia of breaking the promise it made with Guterres and not stopping airstrikes in the area.
He also called on the United Nations to take an active role in securing an evacuation route through which citizens isolated in Mariupol can safely escape.

“We want Russia to show a humanitarian attitude and we expect the role of the UN Secretary-General to be effective.”
In particular, the Ukrainian government revealed that Russian forces attacked the city of Kii with a missile while President Kuterhs was visiting Kiiu.
The Russian military fired two missiles shortly after the meeting between Kuterres and President Zelensky, and was angry that Russia showed once again how disrespectful the international community was.
He also exposed the barbaric behavior of the Russian army every day, saying that over 1,100 civilian bodies were found in Kiiu province alone after the Russian army withdrew from the Kiiu area.
On the other hand, the Biden administration of the United States said, “The price of surrendering to Russia will be more expensive,” and requested an additional 42 trillion won of our money from Congress to support Ukraine.
