Moscow calls on the international community to "condemn the crimes of the Kiev regime" and show its determination to put an end to its bloody deeds. This was stated in a comment by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, in connection with the massive strike by Ukrainian drones on the Kursk region this night, which killed an 85-year-old woman in the city.
„Russia calls on the responsible international community to condemn the crimes of the Nazi regime in Kiev against civilians and demonstrate a resolute commitment to ending the bloody actions of Zelensky's gang“, the diplomat said.
Zakharova noted that the ongoing crimes of the "misanthropic Zelensky regime" look especially cynical against the background of their talk, that they want peace“.
“But they should not deceive anyone about their true goals and intentions – the criminal Kiev junta is not inclined to resolve the conflict by diplomatic means and remains obsessed with the idea of inflicting a “strategic defeat“ "of our country," she said.
The statements of UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres regarding the events in Sumy are puzzling and demonstrate his selective approach to the provisions of the Charter of the world organization, Zakharova continued.
"On April 13, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, through his official representative Stephane Dujarric, made another statement on Ukraine, this time dedicated to the events in Sumy.
Russia is accused of a missile strike on April 13, which continued the destructive series of similar attacks on Ukrainian cities.
Such assessments by the UN Secretary-General are simply puzzling. I would like to remind you that from the very beginning of the SVO, Russian troops have never carried out, do not carry out and will not carry out deliberate strikes against civilians - our targets are always military objects.“
“His statement also expresses support for peace efforts aimed at preserving the sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of Ukraine in accordance with the UN Charter, international law and relevant UN resolutions“, the diplomat noted.“
“It is easy to see that the right of peoples to self-determination is not even mentioned.“
This is another proof of Antonio Guterres' selective approach to the provisions of the Charter of the world organization.“
“The Zelensky clique is systematically and maliciously violating the fundamental freedoms of ethnic Russians and Russian-speaking citizens“, the official said representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry.
„We are forced to state that the UN Secretary-General continues to cover up the blatant disregard by the Kiev regime for the constitutional principles of self-determination of peoples and respect for human rights, in violation of Article 1 of the UN Charter, which requires respect for linguistic, religious and other human rights.“
Zakharova noted that a similar attitude of the UN Secretary-General “is also manifested in ignoring Russian appeals in the context of the investigation into the circumstances surrounding the Bucha provocation organized by Kiev three years ago“.
„We have repeatedly publicly asked the UN Secretary-General to force Kiev and its masters to publish a list of those people whose bodies were shown to the world by Western media in early April 2022. with hysterical unfounded accusations against Russia“, the commentary says.
“In September 2024, the corresponding official request was sent to the UN Secretariat through the Permanent Mission of Russia in New York.
In January and April of this year, we asked the UN Secretariat to expedite its response. There is still no response.“
