Vasily Nebenzya, the Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the United Nations, denounced what he called the West's 'shameful' rejection of Moscow's 'evidence' of alleged US involvement in the deadly shelling of Ukraine's Sevastopol during a press conference in New York City on Monday.
"What struck me mostly, was the comment from the European Commission whose representatives said that the proof and the evidence Russia is providing is close to zero, or even below, which is of course a shameful statement, but the investigation is going on in Russia, that's true," he stated in response to a reporter’s question.
He also advised countries not to send any weapons to Ukraine because they would be destroyed and the move could have 'certain political consequences'.
On June 23, a deadly strike hit the city of Sevastopol in Crimea killing three people and injuring over 100.
The Russian Defense Ministry accused the United States of being responsible because it was allegedly carried out with ATACMS missiles, supplied by Washington to Kiev.
In April, the United States announced that it had sent ATACMS missiles to Ukraine, which had been requested by the Ukrainians for a long time.
US Ambassador Lynne Tracy was summoned by the Russian Foreign Ministry, which accused the US of waging a 'proxy war' and warned that retaliatory actions would be taken in response.
