MEXICO CITY, Oct 7 – Novosti. About a third of the member states of the Organization of American States (OAS) did not support the resolution condemning Russia’s actions in Ukraine, among them – Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil and Mexico.
Did not support the call to the Russian government to stop the fighting and withdraw military forces and equipment from the territory of Ukraine, and also refused to condemn the alleged human rights violations Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Honduras , Dominica , Mexico, Nicaragua , El Salvador , and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines .
Russia launched a military operation in Ukraine on February 24. President Vladimir Putin called its goal “the protection of people who have been subjected to bullying and genocide by the Kiev regime for eight years.” For this, according to him, it is planned to carry out “demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine”, to bring to justice all war criminals responsible for “bloody crimes against civilians” in Donbass .
As Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov emphasized earlier , Russia categorically rejects Kiev’s accusations of war crimes on Ukrainian territory. The fact that Moscow rejects the insinuations of a number of Western countries accusing the Russian military of violence against the civilian population of Ukraine was said earlier at a meeting of the UN Security Council by Russia’s Deputy Ambassador to the organization Gennady Kuzmin.
