Ukraine minister urges ASEAN bloc to stop Russia’s ‘hunger games’

Al Jazeera  

Ukraine’s foreign minister has urged members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations to take all measures possible to stop Russia from playing “hunger games” over a deal to allow shipments of grain to leave Ukrainian ports on the Black Sea. “I call on all ASEAN members to take every method possible to stop Russia from playing hunger games with the world,” Ukraine foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba told a news conference on the sidelines of an ASEAN summit on Saturday. Kuleba posted a tweet showing him shaking hands with the foreign minister of Vietnam, a country which has for decades been Russia’s staunchest ally in Southeast Asia. Vietnam has abstained from voting at the UN on resolutions condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and Vietnamese state media still refers to Moscow’s war on its neighbour by the Kremlin-approved designation of a “special military operation”.
