The remarks in Moscow yesterday by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on lawful relations between countries served, in general, as an excellent reminder of the UN Charter, with relevance for the acute question of UN Resolution 242—still unfulfilled by Israel. The UN Charter and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights retain their relevance in spite of attempts by the collective West to supplant long-accepted international legal norms with contrived, self-serving “rules,” said Lavrov in his address to the organizers and participants of the VII International Scientific and Practical Conference “Problems of the Protection of Human Rights: Exchange of Best Practices of Ombudsmen.”
