At the end of last month, the UN Secretary-General made a visit to Moscow during which he told President Vladimir Putin that Russia attacked Ukraine, not vice versa. “We have not Ukrainian troops in the territory of the Russian Federation, but we have Russian troops in the territory of Ukraine,” he said. The UN official’s next visit was to Kyiv during which the Russian troops attacked the capital of Ukraine.
