The world is united against Russia for their inhumane and unprovoked attack on a sovereign nation.
This was before the Human Rights Commission. Russia has been filmed using cluster bombs against residential apartment complexes, a war crime (one among many).
Russian Defense Ministry warns Ukrainians that they will hit precise targets in Kiev, All government buildings incl. the SBU (Security Service) and the 72nd Center for Information and Psychological Operations. Everyone who lives nearby must leave their homes.

"Precise targets" my ass. Many Russian weapon systems have sophisticated guidance systems (they have their own GPS-type satellites called GNSS). So why the indiscriminate bombing of hospitals, schools and apartment buildings? They are either incompetent, careless or they are picking civilian targets on purpose.
I assume that everyone knows that the Negotiations on a new Iran deal are taking place right now. Of course Iran refuses to talk with Kerry and the Americans so we have a Representative to negotiate on behalf of the USA.
Our representative is Russia.
Nobody could posts make this up, but that’s what is happening in Vienna.
I think it is short sighted and actually weak to walk out like that. The Democrats did this everyday when they tuned Trump out even when he had some good, positive and Pro America things to talk about. I wonder if Pelosi is going to tear up Biden's State of the Union speech tonight?
Walking out and ignoring the Russian Foreign Minister is a slap in the face to Russia but it is also slamming the door on opening a dialog and possibly coming to a negotiated truce.
It is easy to act tough and protest like walking out but it is another thing when the people of the Ukraine are facing annihilation.
Haven't we learned anything from the movies where you keep the person considering suicide, (Ukraine) or the hostage taker (Putin) talking? Slamming the door does nothing towards helping the volatile situation.

Walking out will not influence Russia so it was mostly useless symbolism.
"Walking out" means you don't care what Russia is doing so you don't even want to discuss it. I guess that "United Nations" thingy is just a farce.
