MOSCOW, November 2. /TASS/. Impunity for killing journalists and staging terror attacks on them pushes the Kiev regime to commit more crime, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in a commentary on the International Day to End Impunity for Crimes against Journalists.
"The West believes in its exceptionalism and unaccountability, and goes as far as allow its puppets in Kiev to step up these activities by encouraging its terrorist actions. This sense of impunity for killing journalists and carrying out terrorist attacks against them has prompted the Kiev regime to perpetrate more bloody crimes with the backing of its Western curators," she stated.
"Those tasked with ensuring that journalists stay safe and have a mandate to respond to any reported attacks against media professionals bear their share of responsibility for these atrocities. However, multilateral human rights structures such as the UNOHCHR, the UNESCO Secretariat, the OSCE and other entities have been camping on politically biased positions by intentionally turning a blind eye to the violent deaths of media representatives and sparing those responsible, this way ruining the very idea of the universal principle of ending impunity and turning such institution into dysfunctional and useless structures," Zakharova pointed out.
