Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskiy asked the world on Sunday to remove Russia’s voting rights at the United Nations Security Council, calling Russian acts “genocide.”

“This is a terrifying situation. They’re going to attack our Ukrainian cities much more, and they’re going to murder our children in a more subtle way. This is the evil that has infiltrated our country and must be eradicated “Zelenskiy stated in a brief video statement.

“Russia’s unlawful activities against Ukraine carry the hallmarks of genocide,” he continued.
