Russia Condemns West's 'Hysterical' Reaction to Syria Veto

by Naharnet Newsdesk 06 February 2012, 11:10

Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov Monday condemned as "hysterical" the West's angry reaction to a Russian veto of a U.N. Security Council resolution condemning the crackdown on protestors in Syria.

"Some comments from the West on the U.N. Security Council vote, I would say, are indecent and bordering on hysteria," Lavrov told reporters in Moscow. "Such hysterical comments are aimed at suppressing what is actually happening."
