Russian President Putin’s dispatch of peacekeepers! The Ukrainian situation is falling into an immediate crisis due to the order.
And Ukraine’s first request in the midst of a crisis was to convene an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council.
Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Dmitro Kuleva presented a memorandum of understanding of Budapest as a basis for requesting a convocation of the Security Council.
The Budapest Memorandum of Understanding was signed by Russia, the United States, and the United Kingdom in 1994, named after Budapest, Hungary, where the meeting was held.
It’s called the Budapest Memorandum of Understanding, but the official document name is…
1994121 United Nations General Assembly Security Council A49765 in the name of the United Nations Security Council.
It’s the same document as an international treaty.
Budapest Memorandum of Understanding states that instead of transferring all nuclear weapons Ukraine had at the time to Russia,
It contains a promise to guarantee Ukraine’s territory and political independence.
However, following Russia’s annexation of the Crimean Peninsula in 2014, the official dispatch of Russian troops to the Donvas region this time.
While ordering, the prevailing view is that the memorandum of understanding has already become a piece of tissue.
Promise of the Treaty of Korea. Russia, the United States, the United Kingdom, but it turned into a piece of tissue.
In the international community, the promise of the state is meaningless and moves according to its own interests.
Nothing changes even after the previous agreement.
