Point of order by Deputy Permanent Representative Maria Zabolotskaya at UNSC briefing on the ICC Libya report

Mme.President,

We would like to make a point of order regarding the presence of the so-called prosecutor of the so-called court in this meeting. We do not understand why this person has been invited to address the Security Council. 

The ICC has turned into a playtoy of Western states. It fulfils political orders while failing to fulfil the resolution and the tasks prescribed by the Security Council. 

His presence in this building is not only pointless, but also insultful for the entire Organization. 

Thank you.
