And this is clearly a genocide,&#8217; Zelensky said in remarks that ran 15 minutes \u2014 the meeting&#8217;s often-disregarded time limit.<\/p>\n<p>The International Criminal Court\u00a0issued an arrest warrant in March for Russian President Vladimir Putin and another official, accusing them\u00a0of abducting children from Ukraine. Russian officials have denied any forced transfers of children, saying some Ukrainian youngsters are in foster care.<\/p>\n<p>Russia gets its chance to address the General Assembly on Saturday. Deputy U.N. Ambassador Dmitry Polyansky sat in Russia&#8217;s seat during Zelensky&#8217;s address.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Did he speak?&#8217; Polyansky said with a wry smile when an Associated Press reporter asked about his reaction to the address. &#8216;I didn&#8217;t notice he was speaking. I was on my phone.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Zelensky took to the world stage at a sensitive point in his country&#8217;s campaign to maintain international support for its fight. Nearly 19 months after Moscow launched a full-scale invasion, Ukrainian forces are three months into a counteroffensive that has not gone as fast or as well as initially hoped.<\/p>\n<p>Ukraine and its allies cast the country&#8217;s cause as a battle for the rule of international law, for the sovereignty of every country with a powerful and potentially expansionist neighbor, and for the stability of global food and energy supplies.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We must stand up to this naked aggression today and deter other would-be aggressors tomorrow,&#8217; U.S. President Joe Biden told the assembly Tuesday in his own speech. As he pledged support to Ukraine, there was a round of applause, including from Zelensky.<\/p>\n<p>Russia insists its war is justified, claiming that it is defending Russian speakers in Ukraine from a hostile government and protecting Russian interests against NATO encroachment, and more.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/20\/06\/75602345-12538825-Ukrainian_President_Volodymyr_Zelensky_applauds_as_President_Joe-a-15_1695189286672.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky applauds as President Joe Biden blasts Russia for the war in Ukraine during his address to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/20\/06\/75601553-12538825-President_Joe_Biden_addressed_the_United_Nations_General_Assembl-a-16_1695189289769.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>President Joe Biden addressed the United Nations General Assembly Tuesday in New York\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The war has raged longer and losses have been greater than Russia hoped, and the fighting has spurred widespread international condemnation against Moscow.<\/p>\n<p>But the Kremlin also has influential friends that haven&#8217;t joined the chorus of censure: China and India, for instance, have staked out neutral positions. So have many Middle Eastern and African nations. Many Latin American and Carribean countries\u00a0prefer to focus world attention on other global issues, including climate change and conflict in Africa.<\/p>\n<p>Moscow is keen to display its global influence and its relationship with China and insists that it cannot be internationally isolated by the U.S. and its European allies.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Ukraine is concerned that backing from its allies may be ebbing. They have supplied billions of dollars&#8217; worth of arms but fear that their stockpiles are shrinking and that defense contractors are struggling to boost production lines.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Hours before Zelensky spoke at the U.N., allied defense leaders convened\u00a0at a U.S. military base in Germany to discuss next steps. Some nations pledged further money and weapons. But a key sticking point is whether to supply longer-range missiles that Kyiv insists it needs.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. Congress is weighing Biden&#8217;s request\u00a0o provide as much as $24 billion more in military and humanitarian aid to Ukraine, amid a growing partisan divide over spending on the conflict. Zelensky is scheduled to spend time Thursday on Capitol Hill and to meet with Biden\u00a0at the White House.<\/p>\n<p>After landing Monday in New York, Zelensky suggested that the U.N. needs to answer for allowing his country&#8217;s invader a seat at the tables of power.<\/p>\n<p>If there is still &#8216;a place for Russian terrorists&#8217; in the United Nations, &#8216;it&#8217;s a question to all the members of the United Nations,&#8217; Zelensky said after visiting wounded Ukrainian service members at Staten Island University Hospital.<\/p>\n<p>Russia is a permanent, veto-wielding member of the U.N. Security Council, which is entrusted with maintaining international peace and security.<\/p>\n<p>Zelensky took the United Nations to task even before the war. In one memorable example, he lamented at the General Assembly in 2021 that the U.N. was &#8216;a retired superhero&#8217; who&#8217;s long forgotten how great they once were.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>A former comedian and actor who took office in 2019, Zelensky later became a wartime leader, wearing military fatigues, rallying citizens at home and appearing virtually and in person before numerous international bodies.<\/p>\n<p>At the Staten Island hospital, he awarded medals to military members who had lost limbs. With help from a New Jersey-based charity called Kind Deeds, 18 troops have been fitted for prostheses and are undergoing outpatient physical therapy, hospital leaders said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We all will be waiting for you back home,&#8217; Zelensky told those he met. &#8216;We absolutely need every one of you.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-12538825\/Volodymyr-Zelensky-urges-push-against-terrorist-Vladimir-Putin-Russian-leader-not-stop-Ukraine-warns-Moscow-drop-NUCLEAR-bombs.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Volodymyr Zelensky urges the UN to push back against &#8216;terrorist&#8217;
