The text of the resolution “does not contribute to the promotion of the world,” a US representative told the UN Jonathan Srier.
The United States voted against the UN General Assembly Resolution, citing the condemnation of the Russian Federation invasion against Ukraine. This was reported by the truth of Europe on Thursday, April 17.
Indicated that the vote occurred the previous day. We talk about an A/79/L/75 resolution cooperation between the UN and the Council of Europe, prepared by Luxembourg and Lithuania. Among other things, the document focused on Russia’s status – driven from the European Council in March 2022.
The resolution twice mentioned Russia’s invasion against Ukraine – in the preamble and main text. The document is supported by 105 countries. Among the nine countries who voted against – Russia, Belarus, DPRK and USA.
The US representative to the UN Jonathan Srier in speech during the discussion said the resolution was “repeating statements in the Russian-Ukrainian war, which, according to the United States, did not contribute to the world’s progress.”
“We hope that the Council of Europe and all UN member states will support and increase efforts aimed at achieving a comprehensive and long world between Russia and Ukraine,” he added.
