On Wednesday Ukraine put the new resolution forward at another emergency session of the General Assembly in New York.
The UN General Assembly was debating on Wednesday a new non-binding resolution which, if adopted by a majority of member states, will "demand" that Russia stop the war in Ukraine "immediately".
On March 2, 141 countries approved an earlier resolution that demands that Russia immediately cease the use of force against Ukraine.
Five states, including Russia, voted against and 35 abstained. The resolution was non-binding and, other than demonstrating Russia's isolation on the world stage, did not appear to impact the fighting.
On Wednesday Ukraine put the new resolution forward at another emergency session of the General Assembly in New York.
