Last Monday, Russia formally asked the UN to look into the allegations it has been making ever since it began its offensive in Ukraine.
The resolution it put to the vote on Wednesday drew two votes in favor (from Russia and China), three votes against (from France, the United States, and Britain, who have veto power), and ten abstentions from the 10 non-permanent members of the Council.
Deputy Russian Ambassador Dmitry Polyanskiy regretted the outcome of the vote, saying “Western countries demonstrated in every way that the law does not apply to them.”

“The US voted against this resolution because it is based on disinformation, dishonesty, bad faith and a total lack of respect” for the Security Council, responded US Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield.
This resolution is “a milestone for Russia’s deception and lies” and “no one is buying it except China,” she added.
