Russia's First Deputy Ambassador to the United Nations Dmitry Polyansky said that it is impossible to expel Russia from the United Nations Security Council unless the entire United Nations organization is dissolved and a new one is established.
Russia's TASS news agency reported that Ukrainian President Zelenskiy demanded that Russia be stripped of its status as a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council. Poliyansky made the above comments.
"Normally speaking, all normal people will realize that it is possible for Russia to lose its permanent membership of the United Nations Security Council only after the United Nations is dissolved and re-established." Polyansky said on the Solev TV live channel,
In Polyansky's words, the purpose of the Kiev event is to "disrupt" the dispute over the identity of the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council. "Everyone is becoming more and more tired of the Ukraine issue. "
" Zelensky and Ukraine The representatives to the United Nations are wasting their lives, claiming from the beginning to the present that we (Russia) do not have the right to enjoy the seat of a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council. It is illegal for us (Russia) to retain this seat after the collapse of the Soviet Union . "It makes no sense, we have explained it and even the United Nations has clarified it," Polyansky said. Earlier on Tuesday, Polyansky said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was allowed to speak remotely. Addressing the United Nations Security Council without consulting other Security Council member states violates existing operating rules.
During Zelensky’s speech, the Ukrainian leader urged the United Nations to designate Russia as a “terrorist state” and expel it from the United Nations Security Council. Russia has permanent membership and voting rights on the Security Council.
