Irish Prime Minister Simon Harris stated this at the final plenary session of the Global Peace Summit in Switzerland, according to an Ukrinform correspondent.
"Ukraine holds the same right to its territorial integrity and sovereignty as the rest of us. If we reverse, to a global system where the organizing principle is ‘might is right,’ the independence we enjoy today as free nations will be at serious risk,” he said.
Harris stressed there is a simple truth: Russia has illegally invaded Ukraine. It continues to attack civilians and commit innumerable crimes against humanity.
