The meeting of the UN Security Council members “according to the Arria formula”, organized by Russia on the situation with national minorities and the glorification of Nazism in the countries of the Baltic-Black Sea region “is” the spread of a false narrative about neighboring countries. ” This statement was made on the eve of the Lithuanian Foreign Ministry, reports Delfi.
“We want to clearly say that we, Lithuania and our partners, see and understand what Russia is doing and what it is striving for. We have to regret that Russia is spreading false interpretations about the human rights situation in Lithuania and neighboring states, but this never diminishes our readiness to strive for the universal provision of human rights, ”said Deputy Foreign Minister of the Republic of Lithuania Mantas Adomenas.
According to him, Russia is using this event “in all possible formats to divert attention from the deteriorating human rights situation in Russia and the military escalation near the borders of Ukraine.” The official noted that attempts to manipulate the Security Council have already been condemned by “like-minded people” in the UN Security Council and the European Union.
A week ago, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution proposed by the Russian Federation on combating the glorification of Nazism and neo-Nazism. Only the United States and Ukraine opposed it.
