In addition to Russia, Belarus, Syria, North Korea, and Nicaragua voted against the text. The votes in favor were more than 141 votes in favor of the text condemning the invasion half a year ago. Brazil, Saudi Arabia and Turkey voted in favor of the resolution.

Major powers such as China, India, Pakistan and South Africa abstained from the vote, despite extensive US diplomatic efforts to win them over.

Although the resolutions of the General Assembly are not legally binding, they have a special symbolic value and show the West the degree of international isolation of Moscow.

The text describes the annexation of the four Ukrainian regions (Danitsk, Lugansk, Kherson and Zaporizhia) as invalid and illegal, and demands the return of these regions to Kyiv and the withdrawal of Russian forces from Ukrainian lands.

The vote in the General Assembly followed a recent vote in the Security Council on a similar text, in which Russia, a permanent member state, exercised its veto.
