Abstract
The main political bodies of the United Nations have been particularly diligent in dealing with the war in Ukraine even if to arrive at the condemnation of the Russian military aggression it was necessary to wait for the resolution ES-11/1 approved on March 2, 2022 by an overwhelming majority of countries members of the General Assembly. For its part, the Security Council met several times and it is no coincidence that a meeting was taking place on 24 February 2022 when President Putin announced the start of the "special military operation" in Ukraine. This dramatic diplomatic coup, mocking in method and substance, had the predictable outcome of the paralysis of the Council's decision-making process, blocked the next day by the abusive veto of the Russian Federation. The equally predictable sloth of the Western permanent members manifested itself first in the failure to contest the Russian veto and then in the completely "useless" recourse to the "Uniting for Peace" resolution in resolution 2623 (2022) adopted by the Council on February 27, 2022. All the main actors at stake did not have the “legal” courage to rely on international law and the United Nations Charter and limited themselves to feeding political propaganda in more or less questionable ways. In this disheartening picture characterized by the absence of authoritative and charismatic leaders on the international scene, the role of the Secretary General of the United Nations is simply not received.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
