Kyiv says vote on UN resolutions will show whether countries 'stand for the rule of law'

Feb 24 (Reuters) - Ukrainian Foreign Minister said on Monday that a vote at the United Nations on rival resolutions marking the third anniversary of Russia's invasion of his country will be a defining moment.

Opposing a resolution drafted by Ukraine and its European allies, the United States has filed its own resolution which makes no reference to backing Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity, and mourns the loss of life during the "Russia-Ukraine conflict".

"Voting for this resolution will be a test for every country. Do we stand for the rule of law or the law of the jungle," Andrii Sybiha was quoted as saying by the bureau.
