The eleventh emergency special session of the United Nations General Assembly opened on 28 February 2022 at the United Nations headquarters.[1] It addresses the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Maldivian politician Abdulla Shahid served as President of the body during this time.

The session was temporarily adjourned on 2 March following the adoption of Resolution ES-11/1 entitled "Aggression against Ukraine", which deplored the invasion and demanded a full withdrawal of Russian forces from Ukraine.[2][3]

It reconvened on 23 and 24 March to adopt Resolution ES-11/2, which reiterated the exhortations made in Resolution ES-11/1 and called for the full protection of civilians, including humanitarian personnel, journalists and vulnerable persons.[4]

It reconvened again on 7 April to adopt Resolution ES-11/3, which suspended Russia's membership of the United Nations Human Rights Council.[5][6]

On 13 September the President of the 77th United Nations General Assembly, Csaba Kőrösi, took the chair at the Assembly. On 10 to 12 October the eleventh emergency special session of the United Nations General Assembly reconvened once again to adopt Resolution ES-11/4, declaring that Russia's staged referendums and subsequent attempted annexation of four Ukrainian regions have no validity under international law.[7][8]

A request to resume the session was made on 7 November 2022 for the "Furtherance of remedy and reparation for aggression against Ukraine". There were two drafts for a Resolution: ES-11/5,[9] and ES-11/6.[10] Finally, Resolution ES-11/5 was adopted on 14 November 2022.

The eleventh emergency special session of the United Nations General Assembly was reconvened on 22 February 2023.[11] The petitioners[12] introduced draft resolution ES-11/L.7.[11] The petitioners requested, that the Russian Federation withdraws all military forces from Ukraine and, that Ukraine retains the internationally recognised borders.[13] Two subsidiary amendments by Belarus were mooted.[14][15] The resolution passed as Resolution ES-11/6 by a margin of 141 in favour, 7 against and 32 abstentions including Iran and China. Russia attracted to its argument such nations as North Korea, Syria and Belarus.[16][11]

The session remains adjourned.
