UN secretary general visits Russia for BRICS summit despite Kyiv's criticism
"This is a wrong choice that does not advance the cause of peace. It only damages the U.N.'s reputation," Ukraine's Foreign Ministry said.
U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres arrived at the BRICS summit in the Russian city of Kazan on Oct. 22, despite criticism from Ukraine, Voice of America reported.
The BRICS group, a bloc of countries that includes Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Iran, Egypt, Ethiopia, and the United Arab Emirates, is convening in Kazan for a three-day summit from Oct. 22-24. According to Moscow, 36 world leaders are participating in the conference.
Guterres is expected to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin on the sidelines of the event on Oct. 24, according to Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov.
Ukraine's Foreign Ministry criticized the U.N. secretary general's visit.
Can we send a gift basket? Maybe some walkie talkies or something?
How about a Canadian fruit basket?

In one particularly cruel episode, Canadians even exploited the trust of Germans who had apparently become accustomed to fraternizing with allied units. Lieutenant Louis Keene described the practice of lobbing tins of corned beef into a neighbouring German trench. When the Canadians started hearing happy shouts of “More! Give us more!” they then let loose with an armload of grenades.
The Canadians are full of spite and reserve it for hockey and warfare.
sounds like a clear conflict of interest. I suppose now is the time that Russia gets kicked out of the UN security counsel.
right?
....right?

https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/kyiv-independent-bias/I mean, I get it, it’s shit. However, don’t forget Ukraine (Zelensky) is siding with Israel and find it (apparently) okay that they’re murdering thousands of innocent Palestinians. Genocide.
Both Russia and Israel are murdering innocent people.
The conflicts are not even remotely the same, and you're doing Putin's work by spreading the nonsense trying to conflate the 2.
Edit: besides that, the UN secretary should be there. BRICS might turn into a major power block, it's his job to stay informed.

Innocent people are being murdered. That's what matters. So it is not nonsense but if that's what you want to believe, that's fine. Russia wanting to take over Ukraine land, Israel wanting to take over Palestinian land. The difference is that Israel is doing genocide with much more brutality.

Considering everything that's happening and the UN can't do much about it...?
Israel is kind of irrelevant to this topic.
Let's not forget the current war in Israel started when Hamas terrorists (and Gazan civilians) actually murdered 1200 Israeli civilians. In the most barbaric way possible. And then took 250 more people hostage. Last time I checked, Ukrainian terrorists did not invade Russia and butcher civilians and take more prisoner. Israel and Russia are not analogous in the slightest.

The attack that Hamas did is horrifying and should not have happened. Indeed. However, it did NOT start on 7th of October. The entire situation was already incredibly horrifying, bad and seriously unhealthy for Palestinians within Israel and in Gaza.
In the most barbaric way possible
Was it barbaric? Yes, certainly. But most barbaric, no. Considering what Israeli government has done to Palestinians from 1948 to 2024 (ongoing).
Here are some articles;
- The Israeli army’s use of Palestinian civilians as human shields has been documented on a large scale
- Israel’s human shields: Its own people
- This is how Israel uses its own people as human shields
- Israeli troops killed hostages, mistaking their cries for help as ambush -military
- 3 hostages killed by Israeli soldier in Gaza were waving a white flag, Israel says
- How an Israeli raid freed 4 hostages and killed at least 274 Palestinians in Gaza
- Strapped down, blindfolded, held in diapers: Israeli whistleblowers detail abuse of Palestinians in shadowy detention center.
- Israeli forces’ systemic denial of fair trial rights to Palestinian child prisoners amounts to arbitrary detention
- Israel's PM Netanyahu 'proud' of preventing establishment of a Palestinian state
- Far-right minister says nuking Gaza an option, PM suspends him from cabinet meetings
- Israel Defense Minister Calls Palestinians ‘Human Animals’ Amid Israeli Aggression
- Israeli politician: Palestinian prisoners should be allowed to be raped
- Born Without Civil Rights; Israel’s Use of Draconian Military Orders to Repress Palestinians in the West Bank
- Video appears to show IDF soldiers sexually abusing Palestinian detainee
And two images of massacres Israel has done. Because you see, Israel has done so many horrifying and bad things, I'm unable to post it all here;
Israel and Russia are not analogous in the slightest.
My whole point is; both are bad and shit. Both should be held accountable. Yet Zelensky praising Israel for so called ''defending themselves'' while, Israel is basically doing the same thing as Russia. Stealing land. He finds it entirely okay for Israel to murder thousands of Palestinian people but when it happens to his country, that's not good all of a sudden.
EDIT 1:
Let’s not forget the current war in Israel started when Hamas terrorists (and Gazan civilians) actually murdered 1200 Israeli civilians.
Do you have an trustable source (EVIDENCE) that Gaza civillians were doing that? Because that's a immensely high accusation to make without any evidence. Spreading that without evidence is dangerous and makes me wonder whether you have malicious intent or not.
EDIT 2: Checking your profile, you seem to be a Israel-supporter. The craziest comment I found was this one; you claiming Israel is not purposefully targetting civillians. This proves your bias. All evidence speaks against you.
