What’s new: China expressed grave concerns over the destruction of the Nova Kakhovka dam in Ukraine and called for “maximum restraint” to prevent further escalation of confrontation and nuclear disasters, according to China’s United Nations ambassador.
“We are deeply concerned about the resulting humanitarian, economic, and ecological consequences,” China’s Permanent Representative to the U.N. Zhang Jun said at an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council on Tuesday, urging all parties to abide by international humanitarian law and “do their utmost” to protect civilians and civilian infrastructure.
