On Monday, September 21, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, during his speech on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the UN, stressed that the occupation of Crimea and Russian military aggression in the Donbas indicate that the lesson of World War II has not been learnt.
“75 years ago, the founding of the UN became a symbol that humanity had to learn the tragic lesson of World War II. But the occupation of Crimea and Russian military aggression in the Donbas prove that this lesson has not been learnt”,- the president said.
In addition, Zelensky stressed that this is not only a war in Ukraine, but a war in Europe. Moreover, this is not just an encroachment on the sovereignty of an independent state, but an attempt to return to the division of spheres of influence in the world.
