UN Chief: Absurd War in Ukraine Must be Ended

UN chief António Guterres urged on Tuesday for an end to the “absurd war” that started about a month ago with the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

 

The United Nations Secretary-General warned that the conflict is “going nowhere soon” and the Ukrainian people are “going through living hell.”
“Continuing the war in Ukraine is morally unacceptable, politically indefensible and militarily nonsensical,” Guterres told reporters.

Even if the Russians capture the port city of Mariupol, he still believes that the war cannot be won. “Ukraine cannot be conquered city by city, street by street, house by house.”
