On February 23, during a special session on Ukraine to mark the first anniversary of Russia's special military campaign, the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution calling for an end to the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

According to Russia's Tass news agency, 141 countries voted in favor, 7 voted against, and 32 abstained. The resolution calls on countries and international organizations to "redouble their support for diplomatic efforts to achieve a just, comprehensive and lasting peace in Ukraine in accordance with the United Nations Charter."

Ukraine, with the support of Western countries, has proposed a draft resolution to the UN General Assembly, which is said to be aimed at achieving peace. The document does not call for peace talks or a ceasefire. It calls on the parties to comply with their obligations towards civilians and prisoners of war.

Russia's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Vasily Nebenzya said the resolution would not contribute to a "peaceful solution to the conflicts between Russia and the West that escalated a year ago." According to him, the document is one-sided and far from reality./.
