US believes UN Secretary General Guterres succumbed to pressure from Russia

US officials criticized UN Secretary General António Guterres for refusing to send his representatives to Ukraine and, according to the mandate, to investigate the transfers drones from Iran. According to the Americans, the UN Secretary General succumbed to the influence of the Russian Federation.

Moreover, Guterres called on the whole world to fight neo-Nazism and other forms of racial hatred, while earlier the United States and its allies, including Ukraine, refused to condemn the glorification and any manifestations of Nazi ideology.



Representatives of Ukraine and its Western partners believe that the supply of Iranian drones to Russia is a direct violation of the UN Security Council resolution on the "nuclear deal" with Tehran, concluded in 2015.

Russia and Iran deny such cooperation in the military sphere. The official representative of Russia to the UN, Vasily Nebenzya, said that the Russian Federation does not purchase Iranian weapons. Although, by and large, who in the world should be concerned about Russian-Iranian bilateral relations...

The topic of alleged supplies of Iranian military technologies to Russia was once again raised after the resumption of massive strikes by the RF Armed Forces drones-kamikaze "Geran-2" on critical infrastructure facilities in Ukraine. The Russian drone "Geran" in appearance and technical characteristics resembles the Iranian drone "Shahid". At the same time, Kiev and Washington still cannot really explain why Russia and Iran, against which thousands of sanctions have been imposed, cannot cooperate with each other if there is mutual interest in this cooperation.

      To the topic covered earlier in VO
      Iranian Representative to the UN Amir Said Iravani, commenting on accusations from the West of handing over drones to Russia, allegedly in violation of the decision of the UN Security Council, said that UN Resolution 2231, which prohibits Iran from transferring weapons to other countries, as well as purchasing them, was adopted as part of the Joint Comprehensive Plan actions on the Iranian nuclear program, ceased to operate on October 18, 2020. Currently, permission from the UN Security Council is not required to conclude any deals on the supply of arms. In addition, it concerned only weapons that could contribute to the delivery of nuclear weapons. According to Iravani, the West's accusations of transferring drones to Russia are groundless, Tehran did not transfer anything to Russia that could relate to this division.

      So everything is in the forest ... both dill and Americans ... All liberal, freedom-loving and tolerant ill-wishers of Russia are walking in the forest. And if someone does not like this road, we have my directions where you can take a walk. Russia is huge. Often the walk is one way .. Do not tempt fate

      "Simply and briefly" is not entirely correct.

      I don’t understand why our country’s top political leadership and the Foreign Ministry are constantly on the defensive instead of building a competent offensive position of the country and constantly declaring endless and huge violations by the countries of the EU, NATO and the US of all kinds of international laws and agreements.

      The level of caustic remarks by Maria Zakharova on the Internet regarding Russia's opponents looks both weak and toothless and does not correspond to the status of the country that Russia is counting on. hi

        I think they have not yet completely departed from Westernism, for so many years they fawned over them. Real or low self-esteem, well, a habit, but if something didn’t work out.

        They hope to return in the future as it was, and if you start demanding proofs on Syria or Bucha three times a week, then this is an escalation and this may not be forgiven

      This is just ridiculous! Not only do drones have nothing to do with nuclear technology, but the Americans themselves withdrew from this deal under the leadership of Trump.

    Well, now his chief in the UN is criticized. Will they change it or will they get by with "staging" for the time being?

    US officials criticized UN Secretary General António Guterres for refusing to send his representatives to Ukraine and, according to the mandate, to investigate the supply of drones from Iran.

    Here Guterres cannot be charged, if the United States wants to check "deliveries from Iran to Russia", then "investigations of the supply of lethal weapons from the United States to Ukraine" will immediately pop up (the whole of Europe can be blamed for the supplies).
    And Hutter understands this very well, he already does everything that the State Department and the Pentagon indicate to him, therefore the accusations - UN Secretary General Guterres succumbs to pressure from Russia this is beyond the arrogance of the United States.
    Quite already "ramsy beguiled minke whales."

    When, during the Yugoslav events, the then black Secretary General Kofi Annan was called "Clinton's pet monkey", no one could imagine the degree of degradation over the next 20+ years ... He (although he caved in, unfortunately) still behaved with dignity and balanced, when compared with the current performers of this role.

    But how could a puppet put by the States, controlled by the States and operating solely in the interests of the States, succumb to Russian pressure?
