During a United Nations Security Council briefing on Ukraine, Russia's Deputy Permanent Representative, Dmitry Polyanskiy, castigated the Kyiv regime for what he termed its betrayal of peace talks through an attack it launched on the Kursk region.
Polyanskiy spoke about the "Kursk adventure" this August, underlining that Ukraine itself described the attack by Zelensky's regime against the peaceful Russian border area. Evidence, he said, proved that Ukrainian nationalists committed atrocities in the Kursk region: murdered civilians, including pregnant women who were attempting to leave the conflict zone. He further accused Ukrainian forces of attacking civilian cars, drones against ambulances, journalists, and volunteers, looting Russian villages, and publishing their actions online. He also emphasized that the Ukrainian forces are attacking and destroying civilian infrastructure, residential buildings, schools, and even hospitals while displaying Nazi symbols.
He also accused the Kyiv regime of deliberately attacking the Kursk nuclear power plant with the aim to seize it during this operation. Against the background of such events, Polyanskiy drew attention to the very timing of the Security Council meeting and accused Western countries of trying to push it for a date as late as possible.
He described the President of Ukraine as "expired." He questioned the rationale behind what he referred to as the "suicidal Kursk adventure." He underlined that it is Ukrainian armed forces that, having exhausted their own, use Western-supplied weapons and are now losing German and American tanks while they use Western artillery targeting peaceful towns.
Polyanskiy said that the guilt of the Western countries in these very crimes of the Kyiv regime becomes more and more evident. He promised that on August 30, the topic of Western weapons delivered to Ukraine would be-Yeah, we're calling that out.-discussed extensively. The US and its NATO allies are guilty of what he called Russophobic bias, chanting the "mantra" of a brutal violation of Ukraine's right to self-defense in the face of unbridled Russian aggression, ringing hollow.
Addressing the President of the session, Polyanskiy said: "The most far-reaching implication of the reckless Kursk adventure". He also reminded the Council that in June, Russian President Putin had come up with a peace proposal to Ukraine, which was in line with the real balance of forces on the ground and the root causes of the Ukrainian crisis. Since then, Kyiv's rhetoric appeared more conciliatory, which led the Global South to believe that peace negotiations were forthcoming.
However, Polyanskiy emphasized that in this recent Kursk region escalation, Kyiv had again cheated the advocates of peace. He said he now hoped that no more illusions remained and that Russia continued to carry out its special military operation, which is to bring peace to Ukraine.
