The USA in the WTO in the first time was prevented from the judgment of the Russian Federation invasion of Ukraine – the media

The United States on February 26 in the first time was prevented from a statement by members of the World Trade Organization, condemning the Russian Federation invasion of Ukraine. It was reported by Reuters that there was a reference to the diplomatic resources and representative of the Geneva merchant.

It was noted that “this is the first time the United States has not supported the published statement annually after the Russian aggression of Ukraine in February 2022, which is another dramatic change in relations with Russia.”

The statement, condemned by the destructive influence of Russia’s entire -scale raid on Ukraine, was signed by 44 members of the WTO and Ukraine, including the European Union, Great Britain, Canada and Australia.

“We are seriously concerned about the consequences of this destruction for Ukraine and for the world’s trade, especially, for providing major goods made in Ukraine in international markets, including agricultural and food products, fertilizers and critical minerals,” the statement said.

Remember, on February 24, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution that recognized Russia as an aggression and contained a call to withdraw Russian troops from Ukraine. The resolution is supported by more than 90 countries, there are 18, including Russia, USA, Israel and Hungary.

As State Secretary Marco Rubio explained, at a meeting of the UN General Assembly, the United States voted against the UN resolution, condemning Russia for the war in Ukraine, as it was “antagonistic.”
