Including all political and social actors, who today disagree. We trust that all of the parties in ukraine will refrain from unilateral action that could hamper dialogue or remove the opportunity for a peaceful solution. We believe that it is all up to the ukrainians to decide their internal affairs. It is not for the Security Council to define this situation.

Let me thank senator mccain. As im sure the members of this committee know, this committee passed the minitsky bill that would have applied universal. It would not have been limited to just one country. It would have been applied to any gross violations of human rights anywhere in the world.
