GENEVA, Oct 4 – RIA Novosti. The Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) refuses to visit the sites of Ukrainian Armed Forces strikes, hiding behind excuses, and churns out biased reports, Ambassador at Large of the Russian Foreign Ministry Rodion Miroshnik told RIA Novosti.
As the diplomat said, OHCHR employees constantly refer to the alleged impossibility of verifying violations of international law by Kiev against Russian citizens.
“This, undoubtedly, is the bias of the OHCHR and the methods that they, unfortunately, have developed for themselves. And they hide behind them. And when the question arises: “go and check,” there are 150 thousand conditions that they begin to put forward,” he pointed out.
According to him, the department, for example, says that they will not go to these territories from Moscow, but will go from Kyiv - statements from Vladimir Zelensky’s series “I will fly on a rocket.”
“Therefore, there is a whole series of independently created political leads. And it seems that on their part it is very convenient for them to do this. This is how they justify their one-sided reports, in which they are very far from reality,” he said.
