"Madam President, moves to repress the opposition, crush peaceful demonstrations, limit the freedom of speech and infringe human rights are worrying phenomena that should be denounced in whichever country they may occur.
Unfortunately, these accusations could be levelled at all powers today, both from the East and the West, who usurp the right to dominate the world, who want to be global judges, policemen and moral watchdogs. Accusing Russia of anti-democratic practices and human rights infringements today could be described as ‘the pot calling the kettle black’.
The harassment of political opponents, ethnic and religious minorities, as well as measures that make it difficult for people to practice their religion – these are all part of everyday political life in many parts of the world, although it is often disguised by lies reported by the media. Above all, the fundamental right of all people to life, from conception to a natural death, is violated across the whole world, both in Russia and in the European Union. There are no innocent parties here! This crime is the root of all evil!"@en1
