Kremlin Spokesman Suggests 'Wait and See' Before Commenting on US Initiate to Quit UN
MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Earlier this week, US Republican senators introduced a draft law on the complete withdrawal of the US from the UN. The bill implies the termination of US funding of the UN and its agencies, and also bans rejoining the organization without the approval of the Senate. It also bans US participation in UN peacekeeping missions.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, asked to comment on a new US legislative initiative on withdrawing from the United Nations, suggested on Sunday to "wait and see" if the
Republican-led initiative was serious.
"Let's wait and see how serious this is. The point is that this party, it's not really monolithic. There are disagreements and so on," Peskov told Russian journalist Pavel Zarubin.
There is
no substitute or alternative to the UN at the moment, the Kremlin's spokesman said.
"Regarding the UN, we have nothing to replace it with. In the current world picture, we obviously have no possibility to agree on the creation of a new UN. It is now impossible to imagine that the Russians, Americans, French, Germans, British would agree on the creation of a new UN. There is no such possibility," Peskov said.
