Polyansky: Russia will continue to raise the issue of arms proliferation from Ukraine at the UN

He noted that many observers and commentators say that Ukrainian weapons are surfacing in other parts of the world.

“Of course, we will continue to raise this topic at an opportunity,” TASS quoted him as saying.

Polyansky added that there is no meeting on Ukraine in the near future on the agenda.

“But if there is and if there is any reason to convene it, then we will definitely raise this topic, because this is really a big threat to the whole world,” he said.

According to him, Western colleagues are trying to treat this topic "inappropriately or simply ignore it."

Earlier, the head of the Russian Defense Ministry, Sergei Shoigu, said at a conference call that some of the weapons supplied by the West to Ukraine had already entered the black market.
