Zelenskyy Criticizes UNSC Over Strait of Hormuz Resolution Failure
He stressed the need for a functional UNSC “that acts more decisively to resolve acute security challenges of a global magnitude.”
“It is unfortunate that the UN Security Council has once again failed to demonstrate effectiveness and act decisively in the face of such a global threat as the Iranian regime's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz,” he wrote on US social media platform X.
Zelenskyy emphasized that no entity should be allowed to block “such globally significant sea lanes” or jeopardize national security through “terrorist attacks” on maritime freedom, highlighting that the waterway must remain open.
“We faced a similar challenge in the Black Sea when the Russians attempted to block our ports and civilian shipping—Russia was trying to suffocate our economy,” he said, adding that Ukraine resolved the issue through “decisive action, not inaction.”
He also affirmed Ukraine’s support for the “aspirations of the people of the Middle East and the Gulf for peace.”
