Disarmament Chief Tells Security Council Arms Supply Accelerated ahead of Reported Counteroffensive in Ukraine, Stresses Weapons Registers Are Key.
Briefers Alternately Spotlight Western Proxy War, Kyiv’s Right to Self-Defense.

The issue of supplying weapons to Ukraine divided both those briefing the Security Council today and the discussion that followed, as contentions that arms transfers have escalated the conflict met assertions that the embattled country has the inherent right to defend itself from the Russian Federation’s full-scale invasion.
In the ensuing discussion, some Council members rejected attempts to justify or distort responsibility for the Russian Federation’s military aggression against Ukraine, underscoring that Ukraine has the right to defend itself under the Charter of the United Nations. Many urged that Member States have a duty to settle their disputes through diplomatic means. Several speakers spotlighted the potential threats posed by arming mercenaries, while others expressed concern over the disruptive potential of arms transfers to conflict zones.

The meeting began at 3:02 p.m. and ended at 5:21 p.m.
