Analysis

  • This resolution was sponsored by the United States to encourage a negotiated peace between the parties. The original language was neutral. However, it was amended by a vote to add language expressly blaming Russia for the "full-scale invasion of Ukraine," which makes it condemnatory towards Russia. The amendment led the United States to abstain on the resolution. Russia voted against it.
