Citat:
68 stater i FN, vilka representerar en överväldigande majoritet av världens befolkning, valde att inte fördöma Krims inträde i Ryssland. Du representerar en minoritet av gaphalsar i väst som vill förslava andra folk, istället för att låta dem välja sin egen väg.
Det var endast 10 stater som stödde Rysslands olagliga annektering av Krim.
Att sedan 58 stater valde att lägga ned sin röst kan bl.a. ha att göra med att många av dessa köper väldigt mycket vapen ifrån Ryssland.
Att en stat lägger ned sin röst innebär inte att man stödjer Rysslands agerande, men heller inte att man fördömer Ryssland. Man väljer helt enkelt att inte, offentligt, ta ställning i frågan, av diplomatiska, ekonomiska eller geo-politiska skäl.
Skall du ha så svårt att inse detta?
Detta sa den kinesiska representanten innan omröstningen:
Citat:
LIU JIEYI ( China), emphasizing the importance of a balanced approach, said all parties should refrain from actions that could exacerbate the situation and work through diplomatic means to resolve the situation. United Nations actions should reflect consensus and be conducive to an easing of tensions as well as a political settlement. Expressing support for the Secretary-General’s mediation efforts, he said any attempt to push ahead with a General Assembly vote would only complicate the picture. China had always opposed intervention in the internal affairs of States, and respected the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries. He called for the creation of an international coordination mechanism, involving all parties concerned, to examine proposals for a political settlement.
(Min fetning)
Detta låter verkligen inte som något reservationslöst stöd åt Ryssland. Kineserna verkar ha lagt ned sin röst av andra orsaker!
Låt oss också se vad representanten ifrån Vitryssland, en nära allierad med Ryssland sa efter omröstningen:
Citat:
EVGENY LAZAREV ( Belarus) said he supported the use of mechanisms that were less representative than the General Assembly, saying they had greater constructive potential to bring a peaceful resolution to the situation in Ukraine. He cited the Observer Mission on Human Rights in Ukraine in that regard.
Vitryssland verkar alltså främst vända sig emot att Ryssland blivit uthängt i FN:s generalförsamling.
Slutligen så kan vi se på hur ett land, som röstade för resolutionen och som självt blivit utsatt för rysk aggression uttalade sig innan omröstningen, nämligen Georgien:
Citat:
KAHA IMNADZE (Georgia), associating himself with the statement by the European Union Delegation, said his Government unequivocally supported Ukraine’s political independence, national sovereignty and territorial integrity, within its internationally recognized borders. Georgia did not recognize as legal and legitimate the 16 March referendum conducted in Crimea, and the situation in mainland Ukraine was reminiscent of the Russian Federation’s seizure of Georgia’s Abkhazia and Tskhinvali regions in 2008, he said, pointing out that 20 per cent of his country’s territory today remained under illegal Russian occupation.
He went on to note that more than 400,000 internally displaced persons and refugees were denied the right to return home, and the European Union-brokered six-point ceasefire agreement was yet to be implemented, and international monitors had been denied access to the occupied territories. Barbed wire fences were still being installed along the occupation line, and communities divided by the war were denied basic human rights and freedoms. Georgia’s calls on the Russian Federation to reciprocate a pledge of non-use of force remained unanswered, he continued, adding that Russian gunships and drones frequently violate its airspace.
The latest developments made it apparent that the current international system’s security architecture was being undermined, and the credibility of the United Nations threatened, he continued. Georgia supported closer international engagement in Ukraine through the United Nations, OSCE and other global and regional organizations. “We deem it absolutely necessary that the internationally mandated mission has access to the whole territory of Ukraine, as requested by the Ukrainian Government,” he stressed. That was Georgia’s principled position, based on its own experience.
He recalled that, following the Russian Federation’s veto of a 2009 draft resolution that would have extended the mandate of the United Nations Mission in Georgia, and six years after the end of that war, no one had been allowed to monitor human rights violations in the occupied territories. Georgia joined the international community in stressing that neither partial nor total disruption of Ukraine’s national unity and territorial integrity, nor the modification of its borders, should occur through the threat or actual use of force, or other unlawful means.
