The President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated the 5 violations of the international legal order by Russia and outlined the only way to stop them at the UN Security Council.

He announced this during his speech at the UN Security Council.

First: Russia ignored the IAEA's call for the immediate de-occupation of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant and the cessation of any hostile actions against any nuclear facilities in Ukraine.

Second: nuclear blackmail.

"Threats of using nuclear weapons have become a constant narrative of Russian officials and propagandists. This proves that Russia has no right to possess nuclear weapons, because it is not capable, simply not capable, of guaranteeing the safety of the world even against threats of using nuclear weapons," he said.

Third: Russia responded to the peace formula that Zelenskyo presented at the UN General Assembly last week with the announcement of mobilization.

Fourth: "referendum" in the occupied territory of Ukraine.

Fifth: annexation of captured territories.

"This is a very cynical attempt to force men in the occupied territory of Ukraine to mobilize into the Russian army in order to send them to fight against their own homeland," he said.

The president also said that there is only one way to stop all this.

The first is the complete isolation of Russia in response to everything it does.

Second: New and tough global sanctions against Russia.

Third: Ukraine must receive all the necessary defense and financial assistance so that the aggressor loses.

"It is in Ukraine and in this war that not only our independence is being defended, not only the right to life for our people, but also international law as such," added Zelenskyi.

Fourth: Ukraine should receive clear and legally binding guarantees of collective security.

Fifth: "Russia's recognition of these pseudo-referendums as supposedly normal, the implementation of the so-called Crimean scenario and another attempt to annex Ukrainian territory will mean that there is nothing to talk about with this President of Russia."
