Ukraine conflict 'by no means over,' Russian ambassador tells U.N.
Russia’s ambassador to the United Nations launched a blistering attack on Ukraine and warned the conflict is “by no means over” in a speech to the General Assembly on Wednesday.
Accusing Ukraine of launching a “hate filled policy against its own citizens,” Vasily Nebenzya said its neighbor had become “irrevocably became anti-Russia and waged a war on the Russian language and all that is Russian as part of its state policies.”
Without providing evidence, he also accused Ukraine of “genocide and the trampling on the most important human rights of all the right to life.”
He added that a ceasefire in eastern Ukraine’s Donbas region “will be monitored by the Russian Armed Forces.”
“No one intends to go softly, softly with any violators,” he said.
