Ukraine Blocks the Adoption of UNSC Statement Dedicated to Russia’s Envoy Churkin

Zimbio

Kiev has blocked the adoption of a statement by the chair of the UN Security Council devoted to Russia’s Permanent Representative to the UN Vitaly Churkin, who died on Monday.

Foreign Ministry’s spokeswoman Maria Zakharova commenting on Kiev's attitude, told that they cannot do anything good, they only spoil everything, even for themselves. "This is the essence of the current Ukrainian authorities," Zakharova said.

In his turn, as TASS reports, Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov has declined to comment on Ukraine’s decision to block the UN Security Council’s statement concerning the death of Russia’s UN Ambassador Vitaly Churkin.

"When we have just suffered such loss, this behavior on the part of our Ukrainian counterparts… May God judge them," Peskov told reporters when asked to comment on Ukraine’s step.

He also added that after the Russian diplomacy has suffered such a loss, it is not that important.
