United Nations, Sep 8 (SocialNews.XYZ) A Russian envoy has told the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) that some states are trying to "monopolise the international order or impose their own values on the rest of humanity".
"What is even more regretful is the attempts to present the ideology elaborated by separate groups of states as a 'guiding light' for the entire humanity," Anna Evstigneeva, deputy permanent representative of Russia to the UN, said at the UNSC briefing on the Maintenance of International Peace and Security, Xinhua news agency reported.
"Such 'values' are then promoted as a counterweight to all the other views on the world order and configuration of sovereign states," she said, adding that "all those who disagree will be confronted with sanctions or even use of force."
Such a world view does not help to resolve conflicts or reduce tensions, she said.
"Besides, as we see from the practice, it does not help solve the current problems that are relevant for all states without exception; neither does it settle conflicts which may go on for decades," said Evstigneeva.
"We are convinced that true multilateralism must rest upon a mutually respectful and equal interaction of all states on a non-ideological and non-politicized basis. This is the only way in which we can sustain mutual trust, improve the overall environment of international relations, and ensure the predictability of the development of humanity in the face of global challenges," she said.
