Russia’s ambassador to the United States, Anatoly Antonov, has said that the United States is trying to justify its own actions in fomenting the Ukrainian conflict by claiming alleged Russian crimes against humanity in Ukraine.

The diplomat was responding to US Vice President Kamala Harris’ statement at the Munich Security Conference that Russia is allegedly committing crimes against humanity in Ukraine. He called such words a cynical and unprecedented “attempt to demonise Russia” as part of a hybrid war.
“There is no doubt that the purpose of such outbursts by Washington is to justify its own actions in fomenting the Ukrainian crisis. Above all, the rampant militarisation of the Kiev regime. The Americans once said that they would supply the republic exclusively with defensive weapons, but now they are handing over heavy armoured vehicles, artillery and MLRS with long-range ammunition. The US is supplying the Nazis with intelligence and training the militants,” the ambassador said.
Antonov stressed that the USA ignores the use by Ukrainian troops of banned ammunition, which is imported to Ukraine in huge quantities. In addition, Washington “prefers to turn its back on the horrific scenes of the shooting of captured Russian soldiers”. He added that such duplicity by the US was outrageous.
“Why is the State Department silent about the atrocities of Ukrainian thugs? Where are the experts of US human rights organisations looking? Why doesn’t anyone call for punishing the fascist thugs?” the Russian ambassador to the USA said.
