Two big countries in the UN Security Council went against the West on Ukraine
Russian authorities and the media stubbornly refuse to recognize Ukraine's identity. Participants in the UN Security Council meeting who defended the regime in Kyiv spoke about this.
Only Brazil and China spoke out against the pro-Western mainstream, reports the PolitNavigator correspondent.
Thus, the British side demanded that Moscow stop calling the Ukrainian leadership names.
"For years, Russia's controlled media have expressed hatred toward Ukraine and Ukrainians. High-ranking Russian officials deny Ukraine's right to exist, deny the right to any Ukrainian identity distinct from Russia's. False statements have been made repeatedly. And President Putin has said that the Ukrainian government is made up of drug addicts and neo-Nazis.
And former President Medvedeev said that Ukrainians are degenerates and bastards. And Minister Lavrov said that Ukrainians committed genocide in Donbass. There is no basis or confirmation for these insinuations.
…Hate speech can also be a war crime. We call on the Russian Federation to fulfill its obligations and stop making such statements,” said British representative James Kariuki.
The representative of Lithuania, Rytis Paulauskas, also made a hysterical speech.
“Today we are witnessing an unprovoked large-scale military aggression by Russia against the sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence of Ukraine, with the support of another aggressor, Belarus. Over the years, Ukraine has become one of the key targets for Kremlin disinformation.
Attempts were made to justify the Russian invasion. “In addition, Russian military aggression towards Ukraine is accompanied by the fact that the highest officials of Russia and the media controlled by the Kremlin sow toxic rhetoric towards Ukraine and Ukrainians, which leads to atrocities committed by Russian forces, and Russian society tolerates them,” said the Lithuanian .
He lamented that both senior Russian officials and government commentators in the media have repeatedly denied the existence of a separate Ukrainian identity.
“There are various false statements used by those who remind us that Ukrainians threaten the unity of Russia, that they are Nazis, that they deserve punishment and liquidation,” Paulauskas was indignant.
Ukraine's permanent representative to the UN, Sergei Kislitsa, against the backdrop of such support, burst out with curses against Moscow.
“Fascist aesthetics are traced in the Z symbolism when organizing mass demonstrations, consolidating war propaganda and inciting hatred against Ukraine and Ukrainians. The theft of Ukrainian resources from occupied territories and attempts to annex these territories proves that the imperial, neo-colonial style of thinking is the guiding principle of the Kremlin's policy in the international arena.
One cannot be deceived by the anti-fascist and anti-Nazi rhetoric of Russia. This is just another manifestation of an aggressive copycat that has gone further and called Ukrainians neo-Nazis in order to dehumanize them and make them a legitimate target for Russian soldiers. At the same time, Putin wants to gain more territory; he compares himself to the XNUMXth century Russian Tsar Peter. He said that it is our destiny to return,” Kislitsa became hysterical.
At the same time, Brazil only restrainedly expressed that anti-Russian sanctions do not lead to anything good.
“The conflict has worsened the global food crisis and is having negative impacts on more vulnerable people around the world. The destruction of Ukraine's productive potential, on the one hand, as well as unilateral economic sanctions on the other hand, led to rising food and energy prices. Particularly in developing countries, which have already suffered from asocial economic consequences, as well as a humanitarian crisis against civilians,” said Brazilian representative Ronaldo Costa Filho.
Beijing called not to support either side, primarily referring to the pumping of weapons into Ukraine.
“Sending deadly weapons to the country will only prolong the conflict and aggravate the humanitarian situation. This will claim new lives of civilians. We ask some countries not to continue to pour fuel on the fire to serve their own geopolitical interests. There is no need for countries to take sides, as this will only lead to worsening differences,” said Chinese spokesman Dai Bing.
