During a historic session of the United Nations (UN) General Assembly on Wednesday, Peru cast its vote in favor of the resolution which demands that the Russian Federation immediately cease the use of force against Ukraine and withdraw its military forces.

This was reported by Permanent Representative of Peru to the UN Manuel Rodriguez Cuadros on social media.

"I have just cast Peru's vote in favor of the resolution (titled) 'Aggression against Ukraine' at the UN. It was approved by 141 votes in favor. Non-intervention and non-use of force are stony columns of Peruvian diplomacy, as is the peaceful resolution of conflicts," the ambassador wrote on Twitter.

The resolution demanding a peaceful solution to the conflict was approved by 141 votes in favor, 5 against, and 35 abstentions.

On February 28, the Permanent Representative of Peru to the United Nations firmly condemned the aggression against Ukraine by the Russian Federation and demanded a peaceful solution to the conflict, in addition to urging immediate and permanent unrestricted respect for international humanitarian law.

"Our stance of firmly condemning the aggression against Ukraine and demanding an urgent course of peaceful resolution of the conflict is thus an expression of coherence with our own history," he stated during his speech at the Emergency Special Session of the UN General Assembly on Ukraine.
