Russia launched a military operation in Ukraine on February 24. President Putin stated that its goal was the "demilitarization" and "denazification" of Ukraine in order to protect people "who for eight years have been subjected to abuse, genocide by the Kiev regime." In response, the West initiated a massive campaign to put pressure on Russia.
Syria, according to the country's permanent representative to the UN, Ambassador Bassam Sabbagh, condemned on Monday the anti-Russian campaign initiated by Western governments and media in response to the Ukraine crisis.
"My delegation believes that this historic emergency session on the situation in Ukraine completes the anti-Russian campaign that finds its origins in the provocative and hostile rhetoric towards Russia propagated by the West to stoke tensions in Ukraine and to thereby compromise the security and territorial integrity of Russia," he said at the emergency session of the UN General Assembly.
Sabbagh went on to say that the Western media effort attempts to keep people in the West from learning the truth about what is going on in Ukraine.
The Syrian ambassador stressed that the West has been ignoring the actual state of events in Donbass since 2014, when the conflict erupted, while NATO has been attempting to establish "a zone of influence at the gates of Russia," causing people in Donetsk and Lugansk to suffer.
