❗️ Comment by Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on the adoption of UN General Assembly Resolution Furtherance of Remedy and Reparation for Aggression against Ukraine

Read in full

🔹 In effect, those who voted for this document took it upon themselves to recommend the creation of a certain international mechanism that will be managed by a separate group of countries not accountable to the UN system.

🔹 The approved resolution has no weight whatsoever in the context of international law because members of the General Assembly have neither the authority nor the competence to address such issues.

🔹 The resolution obtained less substantial support than all other documents approved during the anti-Russia special session. Over half of UN member states did not support the document.

🔹 We highly value the position of member states of the Group of Friends in Defence of the Charter of the United Nations, which did not support the document and insisted on conducting a discussion at the UN General Assembly pending the final decision.

🇷🇺🇺🇳 On Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s participation in the upcoming UNSC meetings

🌐 On April 24, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov will take part in one of the key events of our country’s presidency at the UN Security Council, an open debate on the agenda item "Effective multilateralism through the defence of the principles of the Charter of the United Nations."

The main goal of the meeting is to offer member states an opportunity to reaffirm their unconditional commitment to the core provisions of the UN Charter, primarily those with regard to strong adherence to the sovereign equality of states and refraining from interference in their domestic affairs.

🇵🇸 On April 25, Sergey Lavrov will chair another UNSC high-level event, an open debate under the agenda item “The situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question.”

The Palestine problem which is central to the Middle East settlement process, is further from a solution than ever. It adds more urgency to the overall task of restoring the peace horizon and reaffirming the commonly acknowledged international-law basis for the settlement, including the two-state formula.
