UNITED NATIONS - Britain has blocked the UN webcast of an informal Security Council meeting on Ukraine on Wednesday, at which Russia’s commissioner for children’s rights - whom the International Criminal Court wants to arrest on war crimes charges - is due to speak.
Such meetings are not held in the Security Council chamber and all 15 council members have to agree to allow it to be webcast by the United Nations. “She should not be afforded a UN platform to spread disinformation,” a spokesman for Britain’s UN mission in New York said in a statement.Moscow has not concealed a programme under which it took thousands of Ukrainian children to Russia, but presents it as a humanitarian campaign to protect orphans and children abandoned in the war zone.
