Russian embassy in Washington: US is using the Ukraine problem to distract OAS countries

The Russian embassy in Washington said that the US is using Ukraine issues to divert the attention of the Organization of American States (OAS) from the accumulated problems of the West.

“Clearly, the aim of the United States is to divert the attention of OAS members from the pressing problems that have accumulated in the Western Hemisphere,” the embassy said in its statement.

“They stressed that the discussion of the Ukrainian crisis on the OAS platform took place despite calls from members of the international organization to avoid raising “a European security crisis that is not fundamental to the intra-American structure”.

Also, as stated in the embassy, ​​Washington does not pay attention to the OAS members’ concern about “pervasive criminal gangs” in Haiti, but countries in the region have repeatedly raised the issue of arms smuggling from the United States. to the island nation.
