Move over, hashtags! Samantha Power forwards Russia simplified map for Ukraine avoidance

The United Nations Security Council held an emergency meeting today about the situation in Ukraine:

At emergency session of UN Security Council, US @AmbassadorPower says Russia is not listening" to UN pleas to end intervention in Ukraine.

U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Samantha Power is clearly tired of the lies from Russian leadership:

Russia has said everything except truth, so we must measure #Russia by its actions, not words. And in last 48h, actions have spoken volumes.

To help keep Russian troops out of Ukraine (Russia claims some entered by accident), Power forwarded Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs a map that was originally tweeted by @CanadaNATO:

Now that ought to do it!

Unfortunately though this probably means the hashtags aren’t working.

Kind of funny when Canada does it before the invasion. Kind of pathetic when the US does it after. https://t.co/NG5m1VSWHh

Is @AmbassadorPower an intern w/ an inappropriate sense of scale? Or a real person w/ a real foreign policy job? https://t.co/xy8F3eDxp4

The “map” from @CanadaNATO that Power forwarded to Russian military leadership remains in limbo just in case hashtag and Internet meme diplomacy fails:

Also, the “emergency” U.N. Security Council meeting ended pretty much as you might have expected:

Shocker. RT @markknoller UN Security Council ends emergency session on Ukraine without action on any resolution.
