Starmer emphasized that Russia's invasion of Ukraine is not only a violation of the UN charter but has also threatened global security and resulted in immense human suffering.
He highlighted the toll of the war, stating that 35,000 civilians have been killed or injured and almost 20,000 Ukrainian children have been kidnapped by Russia.
Starmer urged for accountability, insisting that the council should recommit to its foundational values and not allow violators such as Russia to remain unchallenged.
Addressing broader regional issues, Starmer called for an immediate ceasefire in the Middle East and a credible path to a viable Palestinian state.
