Volodymyr Zelensky spoke at the UN Security Council, where he said that the Russian army has committed atrocities. "There is no crime that they have not committed," the Ukrainian president claimed characteristically.
In fact, the Ukrainian president showed the Council a video with very cruel footage. The short video showed charred and mutilated bodies, even of children, from Irpin, Dimerka, Mariupol and Butchia.

"Russia wants to turn Ukraine into silent slaves"
In his speech Zelensky called on the UN to take "immediate" action on these "war crimes" that, he said, committed by the Russians in his country. Otherwise the United Nations should "simply close down," he added.
The Ukrainian president also called for Russia to be expelled from the Security Council, of which it is one of the five permanent members, and for the system of the Organization to be reformed so that "the right to veto does not mean the right to death."
"We are dealing with a state that turns its veto in the Security Council into a right to (cause) death (...) Russia wants to turn Ukraine into silent slaves," he said. If you don't know how to make this decision, you can do two things: either expel Russia, as the aggressor, so that it doesn't block decisions concerning its own aggression. Then, do what we can to restore peace," he said in his speech in the presence of the Organization's secretary general, Antonio Guterres.
"Or, the other option is to show, please, that we can reform or change," he continued. "If there is no alternative, the next option would be to break up."
The United Nations estimates that some 11 million Ukrainians (more than a quarter of the population) have been displaced. More than 4 million have fled the country. Martin Griffiths, the UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, said earlier that at least 1,430 civilians have been killed, including 121 children. He noted, however, that in all likelihood these numbers are much lower than the actual figures.
