PH votes in favor of a UN resolution urging protection and assistance for Ukraine.

MANILA, Philippines β€” The Philippines has voted in favor of a United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) resolution on the severity of humanitarian disasters caused by Russia’s invasion on Ukraine, along with 139 other countries.

On March 24, the United Nations General Assembly adopted Resolution A/ES-11/L.2 on the humanitarian consequences of the aggression against the Eastern European nation, with 140 countries voting in favor, including the Philippines; 38 abstentions; and five countries voting against β€” Russia, Syria, North Korea, Eritrea, and Belarus.

The European Union praised the Philippine government for voting in favor of the resolution in a statement released on Friday.

“The United Nations General Assembly passes Resolution A/ES-11/L.2 on the Humanitarian Consequences of Ukraine’s Aggression. Once again, thank you, Pilipinas, for being one of the 140 countries that voted in favor of the resolution “According to the EU Delegation in Manila.

The resolution acknowledged that Russia’s military offensive, as well as its humanitarian implications, are unprecedented in Europe for decades.

Civilians, including humanitarian workers, journalists, people in vulnerable situations, women, and children, were all urged to be fully protected by the Assembly. It further stipulated that all medical and humanitarian staff exclusively engaged in medical tasks be treated with the utmost respect.

It further urged all parties to provide unrestricted protection to civilians escaping armed conflict and violence, including foreign nationals, particularly students.

The Assembly then demanded voluntary, safe, and unrestricted movement, as well as humanitarian access to people in need within Ukraine and its neighbors.
