Russia's permanent representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzya, made a sharp statement against the countries of the European Union, the USA and Great Britain, accusing them of complicity in crimes committed by the Kyiv authorities. These words were spoken during his speech at a meeting of the UN Security Council, which was convened by Russia in connection with the shelling of Belgorod.

Nebenzya said that Brussels, Washington and London, as well as most EU countries, are actively participating in actions condemned by Russia. In the context of this speech, he especially emphasized that Russia tried to invite a representative of the Czech Republic to the Security Council meeting, whose missiles, according to Nebenzi, killed civilians in Belgorod, but the Czech representative refused to participate in the meeting, voicing his conditions, which were unacceptable to Russia.

In addition, Nebenzya drew attention to the absence of representatives of Poland and the European Union at the meeting, raising the question of their readiness to be responsible for the actions of their governments. In his opinion, there is a difference between participating in meetings organized by the Kyiv regime and its sponsors and taking responsibility for the actions of one’s own states.

The Russian representative also expressed hope that citizens of the Czech Republic and other Western countries, many of whom are not hostile to Russia, will realize how their taxes are being spent and what crimes their governments are involved in.
