Western crimes committed during invasion of Iraq left unpunished — Russia’s UN envoy
UNITED NATIONS, February 8. /TASS/. Crimes committed by a number of countries during their invasion of Iraq were left unpunished, and any expectations of eventually bringing those responsible to justice would be unrealistic, Russian Permanent Representative to the United Nations Vasily Nebenzya has told reporters.
"There are many things in this world left uninvestigated," he told a media conference on Tuesday. "And of course, the Iraqi hoax was never properly investigated. Nobody paid real responsibility for the crimes committed in Iraq. And I shall not today be explaining to you why. To think that there will be something like a tribunal on the Iraqi war would be a little bit unrealistic. People are busy with other things these days. But the questions remain. There are so many crimes committed which are pretended to be nonexistent at all, as if nothing had happened."
"This is the hypocrisy of the policies of some of our partners, including here in the Security Council," the Russian diplomat added.
At the UN Security Council meeting on February 5, 2003, then-US Secretary of State Colin Powell displayed a test tube containing some white powder, claiming that it was a sample of chemical weapons developed in Iraq, which, in Washington’s view, explained the need to launch a military operation against Baghdad. Russia did not consider the test tube to be sufficient evidence proving the presence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
As a result, voting on a resolution stipulating the use of military force against Baghdad did not take place. Nevertheless, the United States and Great Britain launched a military operation without the global community’s consent. Eventually, no trace of chemical weapons was found in Iraq, and the purported evidence proved to be a fake.

⚡️Famous American journalist Seymour Hersh claims that explosives were planted under the Nord Streams in June 2022 by US divers under cover of NATO exercises and activated by the Norwegians.
He also added that Biden decided to sabotage Nord Streams after more than nine months of secret discussions with the national security team.

❗️US-Norway Nord Stream Collusion Exposed — Report
Former NYT journalist Seymour Hersch has alleged that the White House plotted for months in collusion with Norway to blow up Nord Stream while keeping Congress in the dark.
He writes on his Substack how a specialist deep-diving team allegedly planted explosives on the pipelines under cover of a NATO exercise, with an advanced sonar system able to trigger the charges.
It’s then claimed that a task force of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the CIA, and State and Treasury Department officials was convened in late 2021 to plot how to respond to an anticipated conflict in Ukraine. Still, their existence was reportedly kept strictly undercover, as a source Hersch cited admitted the sabotage plan was not “kiddie stuff.”
Biden exposed the plans publicly in February 2022 by declaring, "If Russia invades... there'll be no more Nord Stream 2,” the mission was downgraded from covert - which by law required Congress to be informed - to highly classified.

⚡️ Foreign Ministry statement regarding the Treaty on Measures for the Further Reduction and Limitation of Strategic Offensive Arms (New #START)
Read in full
We categorically reject the US representatives’ allegations about Russia’s non-compliance with the provisions of the New START Treaty.
👉 Before accusing the Russian Federation of non-compliance with the provisions of the New START Treaty, the United States should settle years-long problems with the US’s illegitimate exclusion from the counting rules of a substantial part of its strategic offensive arms, which Washington claimed to have converted or which it renamed so that they were no longer covered by the treaty terms and definition.
☝️Regarding the suspension of inspection activities under the treaty, we would like to note that it was the US activities that violated the standard inspection procedures. Washington adopted anti-Russia restrictions, which prevented the Russian Federation from holding unobstructed inspections in the territory of the United States and thereby created obvious unilateral advantages for the American party.
The US’s intention to resume inspections in Russia without prior arrangement forced us to temporarily withdraw our strategic facilities from the inspection regime of the treaty, which is envisaged in its provisions. These measures do not run contrary to the New START Treaty.
❗️Any positive signals or concessions on issues raised by the United States in the context of compliance with New START will be unjustified, untimely and inappropriate until Washington reviews its hostile policy towards Russia and abandons its line of building up threats to our national security.
🇷🇺 Russia reaffirms its unwavering commitment to New START as an important instrument for maintaining international security and stability.

⚡️ Russian MFA Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova:
💬 Everyone is interested in our comments on the investigation by the American journalist Seymour Hersh.
In brief, he wrote the following: Biden personally ordered a terrorist act; the preparations lasted for 9 months; National Security Advisor to the President Jake Sullivan was in charge of all this; US secret services divers planted explosives on the pipelines during NATO exercises; the Norwegian military took part in the operation; attacks from a submarine and air bombing were also considered as options.
We have repeatedly expressed Russia’s position on the involvement of the US and NATO: one, two, three, four.
We have noted that they did not try to hide this, boasting before the world of their ability to destroy civilian infrastructure via which Europe received Russian energy resources.
We also regularly noted the reluctance of Denmark, Germany and Sweden to conduct an open investigation and their objections to Russia’s participation in it, although our country sustained enormous losses due to this incident.
Now the White House needs to comment on these facts.
