[Asia Economy Reporter Cho Hyun-ui] Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the US Ambassador to the United Nations, said on the 24th (local time) that Russian President Vladimir Putin's declaration of a special military operation in the Donbas region of Ukraine is a "message of war," indicating that a full-scale Russian invasion is imminent.

According to CNN, Ambassador Thomas-Greenfield made these remarks after attending an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council held at the UN Headquarters in New York, USA, calling it a "serious emergency."

She said, "Unfortunately, it seems that President Putin has ordered the final phase while the Security Council meeting was in session," adding, "While we are seeking peace, he completely ignored the Security Council's responsibilities and delivered a message of war."

She also stated, "The Security Council will submit a resolution on the 24th (local time)," and added, "As US President Joe Biden said earlier, Russia alone is responsible for the deaths and destruction this attack will cause, and the US and its allies will decide in a united and resolute manner."
