Russian FM denounces West's contempt towards UN

Moscow [Russia], September 29: The West continues to undermine global trust through unilateral actions that bypass the United Nations, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Saturday at the 79th session of the UN General Assembly.
He pointed to an instance of Western contempt for the United Nations, saying that "everyone who still has a sense of compassion is outraged" that last year's terrorist attacks on Israelis are being used to collectively punish Palestinian civilians. He urged an immediate end to their killing "with American weapons."
The United Nations needs to "avoid the temptation to play into the hands of individual states, particularly those that are actively calling not for cooperation but to divide the world into the flowering garden and the jungle -- or to those sitting around the table of democracy, and those that are on the menu," he said.
"Confrontation and hegemony will not resolve any global problem, they will hold back the objective process of the formation of a multipolar world order that will be based on the equal rights of large and small nations," Lavrov said.
