Russia’s Deputy Permanent Representative to the Security Council Dmitry Polyansky has affirmed that the US and British attacks on Yemeni territories are unacceptable and they harm the internal Yemeni settlement.
RT quoted Polyansky as saying in a council meeting: “We reiterate that the missile and bomb attacks launched by the Western coalition led by the United States on the territory of the sovereign state of Yemen are categorically unacceptable, and the same are the attempts to justify the aggression by Security Council Resolution 2722 or by referring to the right to self-defense under Article 51 of the UN Charter.”
He warned that such actions harm the internal Yemeni settlement and undermine the efforts of international and regional mediators to solve the crisis there.
Polyansky criticized the destructive role of the US-coalition that established itself as a ruler and which continues to launch its weekly attacks on Yemeni territories, impeding the Yemeni settlement.
