“The only real solution to the problems with the systematic conscious failure of the United States to fulfill its international legal obligations is the immediate launch by the Secretary General of the arbitration procedure provided for in Section 21 of the Central Institutions Agreement,” TASS quotes him as saying.

According to Leonidchenko, any other measures will only be an imitation of the settlement of problems against the background of the degradation of the situation.

He said that Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and members of the Russian delegation have not yet received US visas to participate in the session of the UN General Assembly.

Prior to this, Deputy Spokesperson of the UN Secretary General Farhan Haq noted that António Guterres is in constant contact with the US and Russia on the visa issue.

Lavrov recalled that the United States and UN Secretary General António Guterres are obliged to ensure the participation of all delegations in the General Assembly (GA) of the world organization.
