Russia’s estimated loses in Ukraine over 200,000 servicemen - UK
Estimates suggest that more than 200,000 Russian soldiers have been killed or injured in Ukraine.
UK Political Coordinator Fergus Eckersley told a UN Security Council meeting on threats to international peace and security, Caliber.Az quotes Eckersley as saying.
“Russia’s claim that it is Ukrainian aggression that is in any way responsible for the ongoing war in Ukraine is absurd,” he told the UN Security Council meeting.
“There is only one aggressor in this war. We have all seen hundreds of thousands of Russian troops invading that sovereign country, illegally and unprovoked.”
“We all know that the right to self-defence in those circumstances is enshrined in the UN Charter. Russia is inflicting terror on the Ukrainian people, and in parallel, it is inflicting suffering on its own population, and millions across the world,” Fergus Eckersley summed up.
