UN, August 20. /TASS/. Ukraine is carrying out subversive activities in the African countries, including coordinating the actions of terrorists in Mali, such actions require an international investigation, Dmitry Polyansky, Russia’s Acting Permanent Representative to the United Nations, said.
"There are specific facts that unequivocally indicate that the special services of Ukraine, including the Defense Ministry, are involved in subversive activities in the Sahel and other regions of Africa. They supply the militants with weapons and drones, train them in their use, and coordinate the actions of terrorists, including the Support Group for Islam and Muslims (JNIM, affiliated with Al-Qaeda, banned in Russia) in Mali, the trained mercenaries are being deployed to act against the local governments. All of the above requires a thorough international investigation involving the competent UN mechanisms," he said at a meeting of the Security Council on terrorist threats.
