Diplomat Polyansky said that it is possible to exclude the Russian Federation from the Security Council only with the dissolution of the UN
Permanent Representative of Russia to the UN Security Council Dmitry Polyansky broadcast TV channel “Soloviev Live” assessed the likelihood of exclusion of the country from the Security Council.
The diplomat stressed that such a development of events is possible only with the dissolution of the organization and its creation anew.
“This is still an attempt to use some kind of pseudo-legal base. But this does not stand up to criticism, and, naturally, all normal people understand that such a scenario is possible only if the UN is dissolved and remade,” Polyansky emphasized.
He added that Ukraine is trying to “shake” and play on the emotions of the members of the Security Council, who began to get tired of this topic. According to the diplomat, Kyiv’s only argument is that Russia “is not worthy to be in the UN as a whole.”
On June 28, Volodymyr Zelensky, during a speech at a meeting of the UN Security Council, called for Russia to be excluded from the Security Council, where it is a permanent member, and also to be recognized as a “terrorist state.”
Later, the official representative of the Chairman of the UN General Assembly, Polina Kubiak, responded to the appeal of the Ukrainian president. According to her, an exception is impossible, since all such decisions are made through the Security Council, in which Russia has the right to veto.
