RIA Novosti: Russia and China refused to speak at the UN Security Council meeting on the Syrian chemical dossier

“They don’t see value in this discussion,” the agency’s source in the Security Council said.

On December 6, 2022, Dmitry Polyansky, First Deputy Permanent Representative of Russia to the UN, said that the technical secretariat of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons does not want to abandon the biased anti-Syrian line that he is pursuing.

Prior to this, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that Moscow was seriously concerned about the attempts of the United States and its allies to reformat the OPCW "for themselves."
