The Russian Federation is to assume the monthly rotating Presidency of the Security Council tomorrow, Sunday, August 01, states the United Nations.

 

 

In late June this year, the Russian Federation had slammed the United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s decision to appoint a panel of experts to advise him on Sri Lanka’s alleged violations of human rights and humanitarian law during the final stages of the war against Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, without regard to Sri Lanka’s sovereignty.

 

The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a statement criticized the UN Chief for not obtaining the opinion of the Security Council or the General Assembly before appointing the panel.

Russia is one of the 5 ‘permanent’ members of UN Security Council and by becoming it’s President for a month would they be able to do much about what USA, their associates and stooges or Ban Ki-moon has been doing under their nose? UN is in America’s pocket. And Ban Ki-moon’s panel is a farce – they are really not interested if any human rights were violated in Sri Lanka during the humanitarian operation. USA and their stooges violate more than all the rest taken together!!

WHETHER SRI LANKA, UNITED STATES, AUSTRALIA OR MALDIVE ISLANDS, WHOEVER VIOLATE HUMAN RIGHTS, ALL MUST BE PENALISED. BECAUSE UNITED STATES IS A BIG COUNTRY, THAT DOES NOT MEAN THEY CAN ESCAPE. ALL MUST BE PUNISHED. WHEN BAN KI MOON VISITED THE IDP CAMPS IN VAVUNIA AND ANNOUNCED THAT PROGRESS WAS FARE AND ACCEPTABLE BAN KI MOON WAS PRAISED BY ALL IN SRI LANKA AND THE MOMENT HE ANNOUNCED ON PENAL APPOINTMENT ON WAR CRIME HE BCAME SRI LANKA’S FIRST ENEMY BYPASSING PRABHAKARAN. BUNCH OF JOKERS! RUSSIA CAN BE THE PRESIDENT BUT LAW IS SAME FOR ALL. KEEP UP MR.MOON GO AHEAD WITH YOUR PENAL AND COME OUT WITH FACTS.
