Russia and China oppose appointed representative for BiH at UN

NEW YORK, 12 May 2022, (TON): Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the UN Vasily Nebenzia said “the Security Council of the world organization cannot consider the German diplomat Christian Schmidt as High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina, since his candidacy did not pass the necessary approval.”

Nebenzya said “I would like to make a reservation that we do not consider German citizen Christian Schmidt as High Representative. The UN Security Council did not give appropriate approval for his approval in this position.”

The diplomat noted “we would like to emphasize that the Bosnian problem is on the agenda of the Council within the meaning of Chapter 7 of the UN Charter.”

“There is already a quarter-century practice of approving High Representatives. states that consider themselves the guardians of the tradition of jurisprudence and international law.”
