"The United States went to the UN Security Council in the early 2000s and received a Security Council mandate, that is, the trust of the international community - not only 15 countries, but the entire world community, which trusts the Security Council to hold such events," RIA Novosti quoted her as saying.

Zakharova noted that the UN Security Council issues a mandate to a country or a group of countries that are carrying out this operation.

“20 years is a long time.

20 years.

During this period, not once, despite the reminders, despite the calls, despite the commitments ... not once during this time did the United States come to the Security Council and did not report on either the period of time or the results of what they did there.

Not once, ”the diplomat said.

Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov spoke about the withdrawal of the American military from Afghanistan.
