Moscow’s ambassador to the United Nations Vassily Nebenzia dismissed allegations that Russian troops have carried out atrocities in Ukraine in a speech at the Security Council on Tuesday, saying there was no evidence from witnesses.
Directly addressing Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky, who spoke to the council moments earlier, Nebenzia said Moscow places “on your conscience the ungrounded accusations against the Russian military, which are not confirmed by any eye witnesses.”
