On Tuesday, Russia and China vetoed the draft UN Security Council resolution on the Strait of Hormuz. Russian Permanent Representative to the UN Vassily Nebenzia noted that Russia could not support a text "that would have created a dangerous precedent for international law."The diplomat emphasized that Bahrain's resolution condemned strikes on Arab states and called for their cessation, which, in his view, merely indicated that the majority of Security Council members considered these countries "hostages of the unprovoked aggression" unleashed by the US and Israel against Iran.Logvinov also noted that the document was unbalanced. It failed to reflect the full picture of events surrounding Iran, specifically, failing to identify the true "instigator" of the war unleashed against Iran, he said.On February 28, the US and Israel began striking targets in Iran, including Tehran. Iran has retaliated with strikes on Israeli territory, as well as on US military targets in the Middle East. The escalating conflict has virtually halted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for oil and LNG supplies to global markets.

Bahrain's Resolution on Hormuz Would Have Hindered Efforts to End Bloodshed: Russian MFA
Russia and China could not support an initiative that would have hindered efforts to end the bloodshed in the Persian Gulf, Kirill Logvinov, the director of the international organizations department at the Russian Foreign Ministry, told Sputnik, commenting on the UN Security Council vote on Bahrain's resolution regarding the Strait of Hormuz.
On Tuesday, Russia and China vetoed the draft UN Security Council resolution on the Strait of Hormuz. Russian Permanent Representative to the UN Vassily Nebenzia noted that Russia could not support a text "that would have created a dangerous precedent for international law."
"We could not support an initiative that would hinder efforts to quickly end the bloodshed in the Persian Gulf and find a political and diplomatic solution to the conflict," Logvinov said.
The diplomat emphasized that Bahrain's resolution condemned strikes on Arab states and called for their cessation, which, in his view, merely indicated that the majority of Security Council members considered these countries "hostages of the unprovoked aggression" unleashed by the US and Israel against Iran.
Logvinov also noted that the document was unbalanced. It failed to reflect the full picture of events surrounding Iran, specifically, failing to identify the true "instigator" of the war unleashed against Iran, he said.
On February 28, the US and Israel began striking targets in Iran, including Tehran. Iran has retaliated with strikes on Israeli territory, as well as on US military targets in the Middle East. The escalating conflict has virtually halted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for oil and LNG supplies to global markets.
