UNGA: In address, Russia calls for Security Council probe of all aspects of terrorism. (2 video UN -En/Ru)

UN, 27 September 2014 – Calling for a comprehensive approach to terrorism, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov took the General Assembly’s podium today to propose a United Nations Security Council enquiry into all aspects of the scourge in the Middle East and North Africa.
“The terrorist threat requires a comprehensive approach if we want to eradicate its root causes rather than be condemned to react to the symptoms,” he said on the fourth day of the 69th annual high-level meeting. “ISIL (the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant) is just a part of the problem.

“We propose to launch under the auspices of the UN Security Council an in-depth study on the extremist and terrorist threats in all their aspects across the MENA area. The integrated approach implies also that the long-standing conflicts should be examined, primarily between Arab nations and Israel.
“The absence of settlement of the Palestinian issue over several decades remains as it is widely recognized one of the main factors of instability in the region that helps the extremists to recruit more and more new Jihadists.”
  • But Mr. Lavrov devoted the lion’s share of his address to rebutting Western charges of Russian aggression in Ukraine, and condemning Western actions in Iraq, Syria and Libya.
“The US-led Western alliance that portrays itself as a champion of democracy, rule of law and human rights within individual countries, acts from directly opposite positions in the international arena, rejecting the democratic principle of sovereign equality of states enshrined the UN Charter and trying to decide for everyone what is good or evil,” he declared.
He cited the support of the United States and European Union for the “coup d'état” in Ukraine and their justification the “self-proclaimed” Kiev authorities’ suppression by force of the part of the Ukrainian people that rejected the attempts to impose “the anti-constitutional way of life to the entire country.”
“It is precisely the aggressive assault on these rights that compelled the population of Crimea to take the destiny in its own hands and make a choice in favour of self-determination,” he said. “This was an absolutely free choice no matter what was invented by those who are responsible in the first place for the internal conflict in Ukraine.”
He decried Western support for the Syrian foes of President Bashar al Assad. “The struggle against terrorists in the territory of Syria should be structured in cooperation with the Syrian Government, which clearly stated its readiness to join it,” he added.
“We warned against a temptation to make allies with almost anybody who proclaimed himself an enemy of [Syrian president] Assad: be it A1 Qaeda, Jabhat an Nusra and other ‘fellow travellers’ seeking the change of regime, including ISIL, which today is in the focus of our attention.”

  1. Lavrov says crisis in Ukraine can be resolved with good will...

    Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Saturday said good will and denial of support to the “party of war” in Kiev were the key to resolving the crisis in Ukraine.

    “We are convinced that in the presence of good will and denial of support to the ‘party of war’ in Kiev which is trying to push the Ukrainian people into the abyss of national catastrophe the way out of crisis is within our reach,” he said at the 69th session of the U.N. General Assembly in New York.

    “The way to overcoming the crisis has been opened with the achievement of the ceasefire agreement in the South-Eastern Ukraine on the basis of initiatives by Presidents Pyotr Poroshenko and Vladimir Putin. With the participation of the representatives of Kiev, Donetsk, Lugansk, OSCE and Russia, practical measures are being agreed upon successive implementation of this understanding, including the separation of the parties to the conflict, pull back of heavy weapons of the Ukrainian army and militia forces, setting up monitoring trough the OSCE and preparation for elections in the South-East,” he said.

    Lavrov reiterated that Russia was ready to continue to actively promote the political settlement.

    “However, it should be crystal clear that we are doing this for the sake of peace, tranquillity and wellbeing of the Ukrainian people rather than for catering to someone's ambitions,” he said.

    “The attempts to put on pressure on Russia and to compel it to abandon its values, truth and justice have no prospects whatsoever,” Lavrov stressed.

  2. West Unwilling to Cooperate With Russia on ‘Undivided Security’ Zone: Lavrov...

    UNITED NATIONS, September 27 (RIA Novosti) — Western partners have consistently avoided cooperating with Russia on the creation of the "undivided security" zone from the Atlantic to Pacific Oceans, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said at the 69th session of the UN General Assembly on Saturday.

    "Western partners have ignored our numerous warnings concerning the inadmissibility of breaking the UN Charter and Helsinki Final Act principles, consistently evaded proper collaboration on creating a zone of equal and undivided security and cooperation in the area from the Atlantic to Pacific Oceans," Lavrov said.

    "We were told that legally binding security guarantees could only be given to the members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, which at the time continued to expand into the east, despite promising the opposite," the minister added.

    "NATO's immediate switch to hostile position, to reducing its cooperation with Russia, hurting the West's own interests, to increasing its military presence near Russian borders, has revealed the alliance's inability to change its genetic code, asserted during the Cold War," Lavrov said.

  3. EEUU descarta el principio de la ONU sobre igualdad de Estados, dice Lavrov...

    Occidente, liderado por EEUU, que aboga por la democracia y los Derechos Humanos, renuncia a nivel internacional al principio de igualdad de Estados fijado en la Carta de la ONU y decide por otros países, declaró el ministro de Asuntos Exteriores de Rusia, Serguéi Lavrov ante la Asamblea General de la ONU.

    "La Alianza, liderada por EEUU, aboga por la democracia, la supremacía de la ley y los Derechos Humanos dentro de varios países pero actúa de manera contraria a nivel internacional renunciando al principio democrático fijado en la Carta de la ONU sobre la igualdad de Estados soberanos y tratando de decidir por otros países qué es lo bueno y qué es lo malo", subrayó Lavrov.

    Agregó que "se hace patente cada vez más la contradicción entre la necesidad de acciones colectivas y de cooperación para elaborar respuestas adecuadas a los desafíos comunes y la aspiración de varios países a dominar, a resucitar la mentalidad arcaica basada en una disciplina de cuartel y una lógica defectuosa 'suyo-ajeno'".

  4. Lavrov dice que EEUU y la UE justifican acciones de las autoridades de Kiev...

    Estados Unidos y la Unión Europea justifican indistintamente todas las acciones de las autoridades de Kiev, declaró el ministro de Exteriores de Rusia, Serguéi Lavrov.

    "EEUU y la UE apoyaron el golpe de Estado en Ucrania y justifican indistintamente todas las acciones de las autoproclamadas autoridades de Kiev que optaron por someter a la fuerza la parte del pueblo ucraniano que rechazó los intentos de imponer a todo el país normas que se contradicen con la Constitución y quiso luchar por su derecho de usar su idioma y de tener su cultura y su historia", indicó ante la Asamblea General de la ONU.

    Subrayó que "precisamente el ataque agresivo contra estos derechos obligó a los ciudadanos de Crimea a tomar entre sus manos su destino y optar por la autodeterminación".

    "Ha sido una elección absolutamente libre digan lo que digan aquellos que en primer lugar cargan con la responsabilidad por el conflicto interior en Ucrania", dijo.

    La República de Crimea y la ciudad de Sebastopol se separaron de Ucrania y se incorporaron a Rusia tras celebrar el 16 de marzo un referéndum en el que más del 96% de los votantes avalaron esta decisión...........................http://sp.ria.ru/international/20140927/162114282.html

  5. Russia suggests adopting a UN General Assembly declaration on nonrecognition of a coup as a way to change the regime in a country, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said at the 69th session of the UN General Assembly on Saturday....

    "Why not adopt a General Assembly declaration on the inadmissibility of interference in the internal affairs of sovereign states and the nonrecognition of a coup as a means to change regime?" Lavrov said.

    "It is time to eliminate completely from international communication attempts of some states to illegally put pressure on other countries," he added.

    The minister noted that in 1933 the US government demanded guarantees from Moscow that it would not interfere with the US internal affairs and attempt to change political and social system of the United States.

    "Back then, Washington was afraid of the revolution virus, and such guarantees were granted on a reciprocal basis. Perhaps, it is worth reviving those guarantees and spreading the US demands from that time universally," Lavrov said.

  6. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Russia wanted to see the information on the state of chemical weapons in Libya....

    "By the way, speaking of chemical weapons, we would like to see truthful information about the state of chemical arsenal in Libya," Lavrov said at the 69th session of the UN General Assembly on Saturday.

    "We understand that our colleagues in NATO, having mutilated the country in violation of the UN Security Council resolution, would rather not touch the mayhem they have created, but the issue of uncontrolled Libyan chemical arsenal is too serious to turn a blind eye to it," he added.

  7. L’enquête sur le crash du Boeing malaisien en Ukraine a traîné, ce qui contredit la résolution du Conseil de sécurité des Nations unies, a déclaré le ministre russe des Affaires étrangères Sergueï Lavrov....

    Lavrov a également noté que les tentatives visant à déformer la vérité et cacher les faits à l’aide des allégations dénouées de fondement avaient été entreprises lors de tous les stades de la crise ukrainienne.

    Lavrov a souligné que rien n'avait été fait pour l'établissement et la punition des coupables des événements sanglants de février sur le Maïdan, et du massacre à Odessa, à Marioupol et dans d'autres régions de l'Ukraine.

    Le ministre russe a noté que l’échelle de la catastrophe humanitaire épouvantable, causée par les actions de l'armée ukrainienne dans le Sud-est du pays, était délibérément minimisée. Lavrov a rappelé les nouveaux faits terrifiants concernant la découverte des charniers près de Donetsk.

  8. Lawrow: "Westen hat Ukraine-Putsch unterstützt"....

    Rede vor der UNO: Der russische Außenminister attackierte den Westen scharf....

    Russlands Außenminister Sergej Lawrow hat den Westen vor den Vereinten Nationen scharf angegriffen und Arroganz vorgeworfen. "EU und NATO belügen sich selbst als angebliche Hüter der Demokratie", sagte Lawrow am Samstag vor der UN-Vollversammlung in New York. Während Russland militärische Gewalt ablehne, sei sie im Westen zur Normalität geworden. Im Gegensatz zu anderen Rednern, die zumeist eine ganze Reihe von Themen ansprachen, konzentrierte sich Lawrow fast ausschließlich auf seine Angriffe gegen den Westen.
    Ukraine als "Opfer des Westens"

    "Die Ukraine ist Opfer dieser arroganten Politik der USA und der EU geworden", sagte Lawrow. Der Westen habe "den Putsch" unterstützt. "Die neuen Machthaber in Kiew haben Gewalt gegen die eingesetzt, die nur ihre Kultur und Sprache verteidigen wollten." USA und EU versuchten, die Kontrolle über ein größeres geopolitisches Areal zu bekommen. "Sie verletzen dabei die UN-Charta und das Übereinkommen von Helsinki.".................http://kurier.at/politik/ausland/un-rede-von-lawrow-westen-hat-ukraine-putsch-unterstuetzt/88.074.789
