Western countries and Ukraine blocked a Russian press statement calling for the representativeness of the Geneva settlement process on Syria and the transparency of its coverage

44
Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation in the UN Security Council Vitaly Churkin said that Russia submitted a draft press statement calling for maximum transparency and representative character of the dialogue on resolving the Syrian crisis during the next round of talks in Geneva. According to Vitaly Churkin, Russia is concerned that Syrian Kurds continue to be ignored as one of the political forces capable of participating in the process of resolving the situation.

At the same time, a number of Western countries, as well as Ukraine, which for the next two years became a member of the UN Security Council, have blocked the Russian proposal.

RIA News cites the statement of the Russian permanent representative:
We are concerned that the Syrian Kurds, historically woven into the social fabric of the country, have not yet been invited to the Geneva talks. This line is contrary to the UN Security Council’s resolutions on the inclusiveness of the political process in Syria. It seemed that our concern was shared by all the main partners.

It turned out that not all ...

Vitaly Churkin:
We were surprised when this project was blocked by some western countries. The Ukrainian delegation also made its destructive contribution. As our western partners often like to repeat, Security Council resolutions must be fully implemented. Golden words, and follow them you need in all circumstances.


Actually, everything is simple: for the West and Ukraine today it is extremely important that the press covers certain world processes not as transparently as possible, but in the way an “exceptional nation” needs, in which vassals have turned into dozens of countries, including Ukraine

      "the press covered various world processes not as transparently as possible, but as it should be"- Here it is, the clearest example of the work of the totalitarian mass media." Their motto is: anything except the real truth, which they are terrified of, like the devil of a bright light.

      Yesterday we discussed the delights of capitalism - and there are still people who sincerely believe in "freedom of speech", "glasnost" and "democratic ideals" of the Western model of society !! And this is all a chimera! There, only one thing is put at the forefront - "profit", and for the sake of not the majority, but an elite handful ... I would not be surprised if I find out that the representative of Ukraine in the UN Security Council carries Samante Powers' briefcase to and from meetings, and possibly massages her feet during breaks ... laughing

      Well, why be surprised?
      1. The West does not want a resolution to the conflict.
      2. The West does not want another victory for Russia in resolving the conflict.
      In this case, the West (especially the European part of it) went to blackmail Turkey - to prevent the Kurds from negotiating, otherwise hordes of refugees will flood the EU.

        I would have formulated a little differently. This was done to please Erdogan, contrary to the unification of the Kurds and the restoration of the state of Kurdistan. Sorry for the amendment. For the rest, I completely agree with you. Yes, even in this way, Ukraine expresses support for Erdogan.

          The issue of the Great Kurdistan is not on any agenda. There is no talk of any "unification" of the Kurds either. This is, at the very least, pointless at the moment. And in the short term too. Although the States do not like Erdogan and are worried about the signs of his uncontrollability, they need this maniac as a conductor of their policy of chaos in the BV.

          definitely. More precisely, he wants in his understanding. The position of the West is not constructive - the same mantra "Assad-must-go" is at the forefront. You can stay in this dead end for a long time, even if it is transparently illuminated, at least not.

          Removing the Kurds from the negotiation process is more likely to push them into conflict with the central government, this is a bomb under the new Syrian government. God forbid, Shiites will agree with the Sunnis, and then the bah Kurds with their self-determination and which it is quite possible to coerce with the same Turks. Americans and Iraqis laid.

    It's simple: the Americans would have made a statement on the Kurds, then the whole Western brethren would have applauded standing. And then the jamb came out - they didn’t have time for the Russians, those first climbed through. And before the old man in hell is impossible, he must personally try everything himself.
    As Churchill used to say, Americans will surely find the right solution when everyone else tries it. Here I completely agree with him: until the Americans rake on all the rakes, they will be able to find the right approach to doing business with Russia.

      I very much agree with both Churchill and you. Only here is an interesting nuance - the Americans are stepping on a rake, and it flies in the forehead to everyone else. The question is - is it not a rake, or does the rake have a curve handle? An interesting situation, all clever political scientists write, either the Americans step on the rake, then they shoot at the feet, then they all have more than in the world, but somehow they are not all bad, the people aren’t very busy on the Maidan, budgets are being spent and sawed, and, characteristically, everyone suffices. Do I have one such discrepancy in the perception of the world? Or someone does not correctly assess the situation and presents us? For what purpose?

    The Syrian dialogue, which will lead the country to peace, must be held in Damascus.
    The Geneva bargain overseen by the West has the same goals as the beginning of the collapse of Syria.
    Two days ago, an article on VO was published, where an ex-CIA officer spoke about the role of the United States in organizing the destruction of Syria.
    While the process of reconciliation began, the United States began to train new opposition fighters, and such information was.
    Kurds are not allowed in the Geneva talks. The goal is to leave the Kurdish question unresolved, the unresolved Kurdish question is the ground for new destabilization.
    But the negotiations are attended by individuals who represent the interests of the West, which are not supported by groups of the Syrian people.
    While the Geneva performance is swinging, we need to establish a dialogue in Damascus and resolve all issues there.

    Ukraine received a separate vote in the UN thanks to the USSR for the mostly civilian losses suffered. If this country breaks off all relations with the Soviet past, then it is necessary to say its "loud" word in the UN for giving up the right to vote. And then some cunning inclinations from this still country. Blocking the Russian statement is another confirmation of the fascist regime.

    In my opinion, the article is not about freedom of the press at all, and the conclusion at the end of the article takes you to the right direction for the author.
    Churkin, first of all, wanted to focus on preventing our Western "partners" from allowing the Kurds to participate in the negotiation process.
    Why did the author and the first active commentators need to divert the audience from this point?

    Well, based on the fact that in the near future neither Ukraine nor the West will go anywhere, then they will have to reckon with their scumbags. Moreover, from the self-assailants, the scumbags will flow in all directions. In my opinion, the point of no return is in our relations we have already passed. I have a vague idea of ​​normalizing relations with Ukraine during this generation. There is enough blood spilled and a lot of nasty things spoken. So that only a change in Bandera’s regime and a passing raznascistva population (following the example of post-war Germany) can change something. Without this, Ukrainians simply doomed to constantly fight against all, with a completely understandable result.
    But the question is: who will do all this? Who needs it? Who will spend time and resources of their country on this? Solve the problems of Ukraine, in any case, hang a heavy stone on your neck ... with which, by the way, you can tear yourself.
    Proceeding from this, Ukraine and its people will be playing with each other like an old and unnecessary ball stained in de ... de ... The West has done everything it wants and done. Now they hope that Russia will get bogged down in Ukraine. And bogged down in any case or fighting, or rebuilding ... I am against both options.

    When the Iraqi Kurds fought with Saddam, the States actively supported them, even Turkey was not allowed into Iraq. The Syrian Kurds with Assad did not fight and are not going to fight. They generally pursue their own goals, which do not always coincide with the US ones.
    The states will try by all means to keep Kurds out of Geneva. There are few Russian facts about Turkey’s ties with ISIS, so the Kurds will add.
