Belarus re-briefs UN on HR violations committed by Kyiv
Minsk - Saba: The press service of the Belarusian Ministry of Foreign Affairs reported that the representative of Belarus, during the current session of the UN Human Rights Council, drew attention to numerous human rights violations committed by the Ukrainian authorities. According to the press service of the Belarusian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, "The Permanent Mission of the Republic participated in the discussion of the situation in Ukraine in the context of the reports of the UN Secretary-General and the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, within the framework of the 59th session of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva." The Belarusian delegation, whose statement was quoted by the press service, stated that "the new report of the Secretary-General submitted to the Council and the oral information of the High Commissioner are again characterized by imbalance, bias, and biased accusations against Russia. Once again, we see in them nothing but tools of pressure and an intention to discredit a sovereign state." It is noted that "numerous human rights violations by the Ukrainian authorities, rabid anti-Russian hostility, hate speech, and incitement to ethnic hatred continue to fuel the conflict." The statement emphasized that many of the aforementioned problems remain beyond the attention of human rights bodies. The Permanent Mission noted that "a preliminary, objective, and impartial assessment has yet to be conducted, which complicates the process of reaching a long-term settlement." The Belarusian representative emphasized that "Belarus consistently supports initiatives aimed at easing military and political tensions in the region. We provide all possible assistance to maintain humanitarian contact between the parties. We call on other countries, as well as international organizations, to work towards de-escalation and the establishment of peace as soon as possible." Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko stated on Tuesday that during talks with US Presidential Special Representative Keith Kellogg, he conveyed to the US side the position of Russian President Vladimir Putin regarding the possibility of a ceasefire in Ukraine. According to the Belarusian news agency "BelTA", Lukashenko said, following the official part of his speech at a festive meeting to mark Independence Day: "The Americans are talking a lot today about a truce, at least in the air. I discussed this issue earlier with Vladimir Putin (Russian President), and this is not the first time it has been raised. Putin correctly says, 'We are for it, not against it, and we do not want American, British, French, and German missiles to hit our cities,'" referring to the ongoing drone attacks.
