Russia, Canada diplomats spar over 'edited' letter

Jan 14,2022 12:20 pm

Russia has accused Canada of " kindergarten-level" diplomacy in a Twitter tiff over a Social Media post by Canada's United Nations mission.

The diplomatic spat is over a Letter seeking support for a draft Russian resolution about aid in Ukraine.

Canada posted The Letter to Twitter with " suggested edits" which led to retweets from other UN missions.

A Russian diplomat has called it " Russophobic libel".

An image of The Letter - annotated in red Type - was posted on Canada's official UN mission Twitter account on Thursday. The Letter , signed by Russian diplomat Vassily Nebenzia, had been sent to all UN members the previous day.

In it, Mr Nebenzia says he is " Reaching Out with regards to an urgent matter related to the dire humanitarian situation in and around Ukraine".

Canada's annotation adds to that line: " which we have caused as a result of our illegal war of aggression".

The Letter goes on to say that " Western colleagues" are " politicising the humanitarian issue". Canada adds " Do you think the UN membership actually believes this? Please explain. "

'Farcical'

Dmitry Polyanskiy, first deputy permanent representative of Russia to the United Nations , responded to the tweet, saying it " shows that your diplomatic skills and Good Manners are at lowest ebb" and reminding Canada that it twice failed to secure enough support to win a non-permanent seat on the powerful UN Security Council.

The Letter was meant to boost support for a draft resolution on providing humanitarian relief in Ukraine, which was scheduled for a vote on Friday at the UN Security Council. The Resolution has been criticised by Western nations for its failure to mention of Russia's responsibility for The War .

That scheduled vote was cancelled by Russia on Thursday. The United States ' envoy to the UN, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, said Russia's resolution was " farcical" and " doomed to fail" according to the AFP news Agency .
