Russia accused Canada on Thursday of childishly annotating a letter it sent at the United Nations seeking support for its draft resolution on providing aid access and civilian protection in Ukraine, which Ottawa reacted to with pointed comments.
In a spat on Twitter, Canada’s UN mission added multiple remarks to the March 16 missive from Russia’s U.N. ambassador, Vassily Nebenzia.
The U.N. Security Council will no longer vote on Friday on the draft resolution. Thank you <a href=«https://twitter.com/RussiaUN?ref_src=» https: globalnews.ca>@RussiaUN for your letter dated March 16.
