Transcripts
colleagues thank you very much for your
patience we had a very Vivid discussion
right now in the consultation room of
the security Council uh first on Libya
and then on northstream and uh the topic
that we raised was linked to The
Sensational journalist investigations in
Germany and we of course judging from
the media and it looks like those who
drafted them were initially making up a
scenario of a Hollywood Blockbuster
but then the plans have changed so only
a child or a very naive person can
believe that three amateur divers are
behind this
blast can really ah okay so should I
should I repeat the the FL okay so uh
looks that those who drafted these
scenarios were initially working on a
scenario for a Hollywood Blockbuster and
then the plans changed and only a child
or a very naive person can believe that
three am divers are behind this blast so
uh those who promote this fairy tale
want to create a smoke screen around
confessions of us top officials in the
sabotage of the northstream which are
widely
known uh actually only one thing is
clear Germany has important information
about this terrorist act which it shares
with journalists but conceals from the
security
Council when we say that Germany must
cooperate at with International
Community and disclose the information
about its finding it's not some kind of
a wish but it's something that each
should do in line with this obligation
under International Convention for the
suppression of terrorist bombings signed
in
1998 and we hope that Berlin will heed
this request and duly inform the
security Council about its findings in
the nearest
Future in any case I want you to rest
assured that Russia will not be misled
and will not drop its effort to ensure
accountability for those who are behind
this terrorist act and we will also
continue to insist on International
transparent investigation under the opes
of the UN Security Council and uh its
necessity has become even more clear to
us after what we have read uh in US and
German
media thank you very
much secur council meeting on this and
how other member states react to the nor
stre uh
of course at some point we will bring it
to the attention of the security Council
most likely the open briefing the
reaction was very mixed I think most uh
country members are worried uh of the
fact that uh everybody is speaking about
about this this is kind of an elephant
in the room which escapes the security
Council uh strangely enough and uh of
course the Western countries are trying
to imply that they still uh believe uh
in the integrity and the professionalism
of of German investigation they were
saying the same things about the Swedish
investigation and danish investigation
and we remember that their only
conclusion was that the north
northstream was in fact blown up that
was the genial conclusion of this
investigation so we have serious doubts
about it but the question is not in in
this right now the question is uh that
Germany should share what it has so far
with the security Council it's its
obligation and it's something that we
expect uh to be done uh in the nearest
Future Mr Ambassador um you just said um
that Germany should share the results of
its investigation with the security
Council what other actions would Russia
like to see in relation to the
nordstream explosions well first of all
uh we don't find uh the the findings
that we uh we can decide we can judge
about them only through internet and
through through the media we don't find
them plausible uh it raises a lot of
questions uh again I I told you that
only a very naive person or a
kindergarten child could uh believe in
such in such a logic uh that that a r
group of three divers nonprofessional uh
blowing up this this pipeline then only
solusion is to blame zansi is not to
blame uh Americans are
uh offended uh and still they Supply
arms to Ukraine and still they support
ke regime and Z is not dismissed and he
is ambassador to to to the UK again this
is kind of a Hollywood Blockbuster but
not not not real world so we have quite
a lot of uh doubts about this the only
way to find out the truth we believe it
is international investigation we
proposed at some point of time you
remember draft uh un Security Council
resolution uh with the
questions to Secretary General how to
organize better such kind of
Investigation we think that this should
be the first stage because we need truth
and we of course we will uh afterwards
seek accountability uh to those who are
behind this attack there should be
absolutely no doubt no doubt about
it uh turning to another topic have uh
any of West members of the security
Council provide any reaction to Ukraine
incursion in K region
you know it's a very interesting
question because so far they are very
timid and uh uh I would say inactive in
this regard because they are they feel
uh clearly awkward about what's
happening in ksk first of all there is a
almost unanimity in in in Ukrainian
society and in Ukrainian uh few left uh
unsuppressed uh media outlets in Ukraine
that this is a big strategic blunder and
what's happening right now uh it's not
it hasn't achieved any goals that were
formulated and you remember that these
goals were the uh seizure of ksk power
plant and then attempts to bargain it
with Russia and also uh withdrawal of
Russian detachments from the Eastern
front so these uh things are not
achieved evidently Ukraine is losing
ground very quickly uh in the Eastern
front it loses the position which were
fortified and which were maintained
there since the maidan coup since
2014 and everybody is understanding that
this is this is a very fatal scenario
for Ukraine uh so on the one hand on the
other hand these events they they have
shown quite clearly the true colors of
the kill of the KF regime because people
are being killed shops are being looted
pregnant women are being killed the uavs
are being targeted uh to ambulances and
to volunteers yesterday there were two
volunteers killed there are a lot of
people in NY inia and even Western U
journalists who illegally by the way
enter the Russian Federation which we
condemned with Ukrainian troops even
they cannot conceal this though it
proves that the roots of Nazism is very
deep in the Ukrainian Society all this
awkward uh setting they create a very
very special atmosphere for the for our
Western colleagues and they are not
opening their mouth so far because they
are afraid that if they open uh their
mouths and if they say something they
will be deadly compromised on on the
actions of of the Ukrainian military uh
of course our society has Consolidated
uh there are even more volunteers coming
to the front and I have absolutely no
reasons to doubt that the uh the
followers of Nazis in Ukraine will have
the same and glorious uh end as the
followers of Hitler in Germany 80 years
ago Ambassador uh follow up I'm just
feel a little bit curious you just
mentioned a international investigation
and you you think Russia would draft a
resolution in to take action back on
North North stream yes so my question is
who do you think is capable or which
agency do you think is capable to lead
this International investigation and if
you draft a
resolution do you expect it even to be
adopted in the security Council on this
matter if if the this kind of resolution
is not adopted then of course it will uh
it will testify of the unwillingness of
uh those countries who will not support
this resolution to seek uh justice and
accountability and it will of course
point out to the weakness of Security
Council and to inability to protect
critical International infrastructure it
may really Bears very serious
consequences for international uh
community in for international
cooperation if you recall our previous
draft on the investigation on North
stream sabotage we didn't uh prejudge
the uh shape of the commission the
agency all these things we wanted the
advice of Secretary General his
recommendations to the Council of of how
better to proceed we specifically did it
this way because we didn't want to force
anybody into anything we wanted another
discussion before we could set up this
uh International commission which should
be trusted the whole uh the whole uh
support of of the international
Community but we didn't even come this
way and uh still at this moment we are
stuck when Western colleagues are saying
the investigation in going on we should
wait for the results but everybody knows
about these results allegedly we don't
know is it whether it's true or not
everybody except the security Council
what kind of situation is this this is
some kind of disrespect of the the key
uh body of that is responsible for
International Peace and security and
this disrespect happened with a uh with
a clear insight from our Western
colleagues that's what I what I have to
State
mrad there's been a lot of surprise
internationally that the Ukrainian
incursion intercurse has lasted so long
and according to the ukrainians taken
more and more territory what's your
response to that in terms of both the
surprise and the extent of the incursion
well I'm not a military man I'm not a
military strategist I have some historic
background that's true I can recall to
you for example 80 years ago there was a
surprise German verm operation in the
Western Front it was called ardans
operation everybody was also in Germany
saying that this is a turn in the War uh
but this was a strategic plot uh by the
allies and the German Army Was Defeated
and uh it had Beed very serious
consequences I I think that the
Ukrainian dictator also will regret it
very much and there will be of course
consequences for Ukraine uh fatal
consequences maybe and but the decision
is made and I I think also that the
whole the whole country uh is regretting
this move right now except for zilinsky
and his click okay thank you very much
