The Russian Federation is purposefully destroying Ukrainian identity in the temporarily occupied territories, and the world community must realize the threat posed by such a policy. This was stated by the Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights Dmytro Lubinets during a press conference, reports UNN correspondent.
The Russian Federation is not just holding this territory. They are doing everything to ensure that there is no Ukrainian nation left there
He appealed to international partners with a call not to ignore this, because Russia's impunity towards Ukraine creates a dangerous precedent for the whole world.
If we allow this to be done in relation to Ukraine, we will open the way to make similar scenarios in relation to other countries. Point. There is no other. If you are ready to agree to this, then be prepared for the fact that someday in the future your country may find itself in a similar situation. And this is despite how great you are today in economic and military terms. Times are changing, times are changing, the most important thing is that principles remain
Lubinets emphasized that after the Second World War, the international order was based on the principle of the rule of law, but now it is being destroyed, and Russia is trying to impose a new reality on the world, where the "law of force" applies.
Remind
Earlier, UNN wrote that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Ukraine will not recognize the occupied territories as Russian.
