Wu Hanjun: Singapores perspective watching the Russia and Ukraine War

Recently, the newspaper made a sharing meeting on the United Morning Post team to interview the Refugee Story in Russia and Ukraine in Poland.

Why don't the Morning Post team go to Ukraine at the forefront of the war, but just interviews in Poland in the border?In fact, this interview was going to Kiev, Ukraine's capital, but it was absolutely not easy to interview the country where the war was everywhere.

From proposing task to the scheduled departure date, it is only less than two months to prepare.As one of the coordinated people, the author contacted the Ukraine Embassy in Singapore, Singaporeans living in Ukraine, Singaporeans who went to Ukraine, and foreign counterparts who had interviewed at the front line of Ukraine.The team also obtained various resources and support provided by relevant local agencies, including providing first -aid courses and safety consulting.

However, the whole process is still quite difficult. For example, the bulletproof coat and helmet have been borrowed after many twists and turns. No insurance company is willing to bear the insurance of the battlefield reporter's insurance. This is one of the main reasons for the Morning Post team to decide not to enter Ukraine.In the process of looking for insurance, we found that many battlefield reporters did not buy insurance. They adhered to the front of the battlefield on the front line by relying on the truth of the battlefield.We deeply realized the dedication of the reporters of the battlefield and cherished precious peace.

Some colleagues asked us, why the Morning Post pays attention to the Russian and Ukraine War to send reporters to Kiev, because this seems different from the long -term attention of the Morning Post.

Of course, the refugee story of the Russian -Ukraine War does not help us solve the problem of inflation; what is more important in this is that the claims and actions of Russian President Putin and Moscow seriously violate the international law and the United Nations Charter.Survival constitutes a threat, including Singapore.

Recently interviewed the Russian Ambassador to Singapore, Cordissev, who repeated many reasons for the rationalized invasion of Ukraine in Putin and the Kremlin.He said that Russia signed a protective agreement with Ukraine separationists in order to protect the Russian groups in Ukraine, and then invaded Ukraine in 2014 to assist the Donbass separatist independence.This is the fuse of Russia and Ukraine in 2022.

This is just Russia dissatisfied with Ukraine's sparse and Russian European Europe, but wants to teach Ukraine or toughly leave Ukraine in its scope of power.However, for such reasons or excuses, even no matter what the reason, force invades a sovereign independent country and violates the UN Charter and International Law.In particular, Putin depicts Ukraine as a country that has never had sovereignty, and uses Ukraine as a favorable facts for the independent country.To deny the factual facts for such a reason, invading Ukraine with these excuses, a very dangerous precedent.

This is reminiscent of people that Singapore sometimes faces similar claims to neighboring leaders who are still stubborn in history and intentionally denying facts.If Putin's discussion can stand on the feet, the war that is launched is rationalized, and it is difficult to protect other countries in other countries. It will launch an aggression war to protect the ethnic minorities and minority groups in neighboring countries.Therefore, we cannot accept the historical fallacy of any country to deny the independence and sovereignty of another country; we must firmly and loudly maintain the UN Charter and International Law's unbalanced position for the sacred sovereignty of the country.

Of course, the Russian and Ukraine War has now evolved into an agency war between the United States and Russia.This is likely to have no unexpected development of Putin and US President Biden.Putin's initial plan should be a quick decision to win Kiev to support a puppet regime for pro -Russia.Biden thought that the Ukrainian President Zelei Sky would escape, and the United States could give Ukraine to Russia. Anyway, the United States was not willing to incorporate Ukraine into NATO.

Now looking back, the United States and Russia are reluctant to get involved in this unexpected agency war.Leading the mercenaries and Ukraine forces Pagona Group leader Parigor Ren who believes that as long as he can win the goal of "special military operations", Russia should end the war in Ukraine if they can win Bachurut.EssenceHe obviously hopes that the Kremlin palace will accept it.

Putin obviously also hopes to end the war quickly, and he has invited China to mediate.Kiev does not seem to want to end the war at present, because there are still NATO support behind it.However, in the past year, the United States has been trapped in this agency war, and China has gradually exerted international influence. France, one of the EU bosses, called on Europe to take its own way between China and the United States.Obviously occupying the upper hand.The United States' support for Ukraine is eventually exhausted, and it is likely to be before the next presidential election in the United States.The two sides and even the countries behind the war are currently likely to be fierce bargaining for the ceasefire negotiations.

As the media of a small country, we pay attention to the leaders of the great powers to ignore the facts and international principles, and the threat brought by national sovereignty and independence, and we also pay more attention to the trauma brought about by the war to innocent civilians.I hope that international leaders will return to reason and end the war as soon as possible.
