Russia Hopes New UN Chief Will Launch Arbitration Over Alleged US Violations
Russia's Foreign Ministry said it hopes the incoming UN secretary-general will pursue arbitration over what Moscow calls US violations, with Kirill Logvinov saying Russia will keep pressing for a resolution.
Russia said it hopes the incoming United Nations secretary-general will launch arbitration proceedings over what Moscow describes as violations by the United States, according to a report from TASS citing Russian Foreign Ministry official Kirill Logvinov.
Logvinov said Russia "will continue to insist that this issue be resolved as soon as possible," the report said, indicating Moscow intends to keep raising the matter regardless of the timeline.
The report did not specify the nature of the alleged US violations, the legal basis under which Russia is seeking arbitration, or which UN mechanism or body would be responsible for launching such proceedings. It also did not name the incoming secretary-general Russia is referring to.
Russia has periodically raised grievances regarding alleged violations by the United States of international agreements and UN-related obligations. Further details on the specific dispute and any response from the United States or the United Nations were not available in the original report.
