UNITED Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres made a last-minute plea to Russian President Vladimir Putin to stop the war “in the name of humanity”, after the Russian leader announced a military operation in eastern Ukraine.
“President Putin, in the name of humanity, bring your troops back to Russia,” Guterres said, speaking after an emergency meeting of the Security Council on Ukraine.
The consequences of a war would be devastating for Ukraine and far-reaching for the global economy, he added. – Feb 24, 2022
