Russian First Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations Dmitry Polyansky vowed yesterday that Russia will continue to infuriate the West by telling the truth about the developments in Ukraine at the United Nations. In a Telegram (social media) posting following a Russia-convened meeting on the neo-Nazi problem in Ukraine in the UN Security Council, Polyansky noted that the Western members “did not even bother to try to establish dialogue and ask those who know better than others about the details of what is going on in Ukraine.” Instead, “In response to sincere, fact-based stories about those hideous events, that cannot leave any normal person indifferent, in response to personal recollections of what happened then, we heard the same old Western mantra about our destructive actions against Ukraine,” reported TASS.
“But the truth about the tragedy in Odessa, about what happened and what is happening in southeastern Ukraine is gradually reaching the United Nations,” he stated. “It is becoming part of the public domain, is reaching out to those who want to understand what is going on. And it annoys our Western colleagues, it was clear from their remarks.”
