The poke method is justified

The Kremlin considers the use of rigid rhetoric if necessary when defending the interests of the country. This was stated by the press secretary of the president Dmitry Peskov, commenting on the speech on the eve of the UN Security Council of the Deputy Russian Permanent Representative at the organization of Vladimir Safronkov, TASS reports .

According to Peskov, the topics of discussions in the UN Security Council are really very sharp, which justifies the tonality of Safronkov’s speech. “Nothing offensive was said,” said the presidential spokesman. - The manifestation of softness is then fraught with very deplorable consequences in the future, so it is better to defend the interests of our Motherland today, and, if necessary, is quite tough. ”

The day before, at a meeting of the UN Security Council, where the draft resolution on Syria was considered, Safrronkov fell criticism of British Permanent Matthew Rayruct. He accused Russia of "unscrupulous support for the regime of" Syrian dictator Bashar al -Assad ", whom he called the" killer "and" criminal ".

"You were frightened, the dream was lost that we will cooperate with the United States. You are afraid of this. Everything is done so that this interaction is undermined. Look at me, do not take your eyes off that you take your eyes? The chairman, the request to monitor the procedure for the development of the meeting, if some irresponsibly, getting rid of slang, relate to their place in the UN Security Council. - The Russian diplomat addressed the British colleague.

On Wednesday, Russia imposed a veto on the draft resolution of the UN Security Council, condemning the chemical attack of aviation of the Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad on Khan Sheikhun.

Russian diplomats regularly allow themselves rude statements. For example, in December 2016, the official representative of the Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova called the administration of US President Barack Obama "a group of embittered losers."

In August 2015, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov was removed at a press conference following a meeting with the Saudi Foreign Minister Adele al-Jubeir in Moscow. “Fuck. Morons, fucking,” Lavrov said through his teeth, listening to the journalist’s question.
