The United States has requested a public meeting of the United Nations Security Council on Monday to address the crisis in Ukraine, citing Russia’s “threatening behavior.”
“More than 100,000 Russian troops are deployed on the Ukrainian border, and Russia is engaging in other destabilizing acts aimed at Ukraine, posing a clear threat to international peace and security, as well as the UN Charter,” said Washington’s UN envoy Linda Thomas-Greenfield in a statement on Thursday.
