"[The statement] was actually blocked by the US delegation, which tried to add extraneous elements in a standard in such cases text," the permanent mission statement said.
"The British and Ukrainians clumsily played up to the Americans. It demonstrates their blatant disrespect for the Vienna Convention of Diplomatic Relations," the statement added.
