**United Nations Security Council Condemns Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine**
**The United Nations Security Council has condemned Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in a resolution that was passed with 11 votes in favor, three abstentions, and one vote against.**
The resolution, which was drafted by the United States and Albania, deplores Russia’s aggression against Ukraine and demands that it immediately withdraw its troops from the country.
The resolution also expresses concern about the humanitarian crisis that has been caused by the invasion, and calls for the protection of civilians and the provision of humanitarian assistance.
The resolution was supported by the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Japan, Albania, Brazil, Gabon, Ghana, Kenya, and Mexico.
China, India, and the United Arab Emirates abstained from voting on the resolution.
Russia vetoed the resolution.
The resolution is not legally binding, but it sends a strong message to Russia that the international community condemns its aggression against Ukraine.
The resolution is also a victory for the United States and its allies, who have been working to isolate Russia and pressure it to end its invasion of Ukraine.
The resolution is likely to further strain relations between Russia and the West, and it could lead to further sanctions against Russia.
The invasion of Ukraine is a serious threat to international peace and security, and the United Nations Security Council’s condemnation of Russia’s aggression is a welcome step towards resolving the crisis.
**The United States and its allies must continue to work to isolate Russia and pressure it to end its invasion of Ukraine. The international community must also work to provide humanitarian assistance to the people of Ukraine and to protect civilians from the violence.**.
