Kyslytsya mocks Russia's initiative to discuss UN's future in Security Council amid Kremlin's war crimes

Ukraine's First Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, Sergiy Kyslytsya, criticized Russia's initiative to hold a discussion on the future of the United Nations on the occasion of the organization's 80th anniversary, as well as to involve Secretary-General Antonio Guterres in the event.

Kyslytsya wrote about this on Facebook, Ukrinform reports.

"'The United Nations: Looking into the Future' is the title of the UN Security Council meeting convened by Putin's bloody criminal regime in New York on October 24, the day the UN Charter came into force eighty years ago. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres is expected to send a video message to the participants of this spectacle," Kyslytsya wrote.

The diplomat attached a video showing the rescue of children during a Russian strike on a kindergarten in Kharkiv.

He also posted the footage on X (formerly Twitter), noting that these were "the latest war crimes from the occupant of the Soviet permanent seat in the Security Council and the President of the Council for the month of October."
