Expression of Concern over Russia’s Violation of UN Charter in Ukraine
ウクライナで侵攻中の事案につき、開発の前提でもある平和が類のない形で破壊されている現状は当学会として看過できないという認識のもと、常任理事有志の名において以下の声明を発信することとしました。
The recent Russian invasion of Ukraine is a both a humanitarian crisis and a violation of the UN Charter, which mandates “respect for sovereignty,” “preservation of territory,” and “prohibition of the use of force.” The lives of the elderly, children, women, men, and many others are threatened not just in Ukraine but also in Russia. We are deeply concerned about this situation and strongly hope that a peaceful solution through dialogue and negotiation are forthcoming to prevent further suffering.
On behalf of the Japan Society for International Development (JASID), we take this opportunity to reconfirm our aspiration for peace, which is the foundation of any activity that aims to uplift the lives of people and to promote a sound and just development.
