Leonid Slutsky: “Washington, in fact, signed the failed attempt to turn the HRCs into its pocket instruments”

“The US withdrawal from the UN HRC once again demonstrates the desire to build a unipolar architecture in the world. Thus, they give a signal to their allies about the desire to belittle the role of UN institutions in the issues of the backlog of human rights and international affairs in general. Washington, in fact, signed the failed attempt to turn the HRO into its pocket instrument of pressure on unwanted countries and regimes. I think that the US withdrawal from this organization is connected with this. And now they are engaged in elementary blackmail – “we will return, if you play only according to our rules and carry out the reform.” This is an absolutely destructive approach. And we remain here only to regret. I hope that the US withdrawal will not deny the negative impact on the activities of the UN Human Rights Council. “
