"Isn't the supply of American weapons to the Kiev regime an insult to the memory of the victims of Donbas? Isn't this a slap in the face from America's allies in World War II to the memory of the Red Army soldiers who liberated Ukraine, whose monuments are now being blown up and the graves are being razed to the ground, as happened with the Hill of Glory in Lviv?“.
This was written on her Telegram channel by the official spokeswoman for the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, commenting on the statement of the head of the press service of the US State Department, Tammy Bruce, regarding the country's participation in the high-level international conference on the settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict based on a two-state solution.
According to Zakharova, every bullet produced in the United States is also an insult to the memory of the children whose names are inscribed on the granite slabs of the Alley of Angels in Donetsk. “And what about the tragedy of May 2, 2014 in the House of Trade Unions in Odessa, when dozens of people were burned alive by the Kiev regime? Finally, does Ms. Bruce think that every bullet produced in American factories and falling into the bloody hands of fighters from the Ukrainian armed forces is not an insult to the memory of the children whose names can be read on the black granite slabs of the Alley of Angels in Donetsk?“, she wrote.
Earlier, Bruce expressed her opinion in a written statement that Washington believes that the high-level international conference on the solution of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict through the creation of two states, which was held at the UN headquarters in New York, will not bring peace closer, but will prolong the fighting in the region.
In addition, she called the conference “unproductive and untimely“. “This is a PR trick that is being held during delicate diplomatic efforts to end the conflict. Far from promoting peace, this conference will prolong the war, embolden and reward Hamas for obstructing and undermining genuine peace efforts,” Bruce added, confirming that the United States would not participate in the conference.
The High-Level International Conference on a Peaceful Settlement of the Palestinian Question and the Implementation of the Two-State Solution opened at UN Headquarters in New York on July 28. The General Assembly decided to convene it in December 2024.
