Its view was also seen in the meeting of the United Nations Human Rights Council on Tuesday. As soon as Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov started addressing this meeting, the leaders of many countries got up and left. Lavrov's pre-recorded video message was to be played, after which the leaders of many countries left as soon as it started. It was an attempt to put pressure on Russia. Ukraine's ambassador Yevhaniya Filipenko, who led the walkout, said, "We thank you very much for your support for the Ukrainians." You have given this support for their freedom.

 

French Ambassador Jerome Benafont said any attack was a violation of human rights. Due to this, people are dying on a large scale and human rights are being violated.
