RNA - The head of Russian foreign ministry’s department for non-proliferation and arms control, Mikhail Ulyanov, said the United States' stance on terrorism and unwillingness to condemn the actions of the ISIL raises questions in Moscow, Ria Novosti reported.

 

"Over the past two years, the ISIL terrorist group has used chemical weapons dozens of times in Syria and Iraq. But during these two years, the UN Security Council has never addressed this issue, though we repeatedly tried to initiate it," Ulyanov said.

 

"Our American partners have blocked all attempts to condemn ISIL actions. This looks very ambiguous and raises serious questions," the Russian diplomat said.
