Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala and Foreign Minister Jan Lipavsky did not support the opinion of the head of the country’s Defense Ministry, Yana Chernokhova, who said that the Czech state should withdraw from the UN after the General Assembly adopted it. Decision regarding the Gaza Strip and Israel. This was reported by RIA News.
“I understand the Minister of Defense (Minister of Defense – socialbites.ca)’s anger at the UN resolution that does not condemn Hamas’ terrorism in Israel. The Czech Republic, along with, for example, the United States or Austria, voted in line with what we have long advocated. We will continue to defend our position at the UN and convince other countries that they are right. It is important that our voice and views are heard at the UN,” said the head of the Czech government.
At the same time, Lipavsky said that he did not expect the Czech Cabinet to take into account Chernouhova’s objection at the next meeting.
According to him, the idea of the country’s withdrawal from the UN should be rejected.
“The most important reason for this is the UN Charter, which was created on the ruins of the Second World War. It lays out the fundamental principles that provide the Czech Republic with a stable and predictable framework within which we can operate,” the diplomat said.
According to him, the Czech Republic needs to be active in the UN, which is why it is running for non-permanent membership of the Security Council.
Before this, Chernokhova said that she was “ashamed of the UN”. The minister stated that the Czech Republic should withdraw from this organization, which he believes “has its roots in terrorists and does not respect the fundamental right to self-defense.” Chernokhova later said that the UN was “supporting anti-Semites” and needed “fundamental reform”.
