The OSCE Ministerial Council in Poland discussed the consequences of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Photo: InternetOn December 1, the 29th meeting of the OSCE Ministerial Council started in the Polish city of Łódź, attended by foreign ministers and senior representatives from 57 countries.
The main topic of the meeting was the war in Ukraine, its impact on the Ukrainian people and neighboring countries, and the establishment of a body to assess the damage from military actions.
“We cannot accept impunity. This OSCE Ministerial Council must take steps to create a high-level body to assess the damage inflicted by the Russian Federation on Ukraine and to evaluate the reparations for which Russia must be held accountable. Russia started the war, and it must pay for it,” said Margareta Söderfelt, Chair of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly.
High-ranking officials from Poland also spoke at the meeting. Although the OSCE Ministerial Council discussed Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and its consequences, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov was unable to attend the meeting as Polish authorities denied him entry.
