Russia-Ukraine Crisis Updates: US Says Russian Invasion of Ukraine Could Displace 5 Million People

Russia-Ukraine Crisis Updates: Amid rising tension between Russia and the West over Ukraine, United Nations chief Antonio Guterres on Wednesday called out the “perversion of the concept of peacekeeping” and said “when troops of one country enter the territory of another country without its consent, they are not impartial peacekeepers. They are not peacekeepers at all.” Meanwhile, an Air India special flight, brought back 241 Indian nationals, as it landed at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport late last night, after taking off from the eastern European nation’s capital Kyiv. NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said Russia is taking military action against Ukraine and has condemned Moscow’s decision to recognize separatist areas of southeast Ukraine as an independent. Meanwhile, Pope Francis also said that “increasingly alarming scenarios” were emerging in Ukraine that were threatening “the peace of all” amid fears of a Russian invasion.
