From the UN Security Council

The UN security council voted on a resolution deploring Russian invasion of Ukraine.


Eleven member states voted for the resolution, three abstained (China, India, and UAE) and one voted against (Russia). As Russia holds a veto the resolution was not upheld.


But the US and its allies will see it as a victory to have Russia voting alone, and China abstaining. They were able to bring China on board by softening the resolution slightly, changing the word ‘condemning’ to ‘deploring’ for example and removing a reference to the Russian president. It is a loss however not to persuade India or UAE off the fence.

Your veto rights should go out of the window if you are the target of the resolution.
 
Hope the Russian public can do something ,looking like the only answer the good people of their country make a stand which is a big ask because they get crushed by the crackpot minority governors
