Russia's ambassador to the United Nations has sharply criticized US and British efforts to suspend Moscow from the UN Human Rights Council. Russian Ambassador Vasily Nebenzia called the efforts "unbelievable."

"What the West is trying to do with Russia is to push Russia out of the multilateral forums that exist in the world ... there is no precedent in the past," he said. ''

He added that "whatever is happening for peace talks between Russia and Ukraine is not going to facilitate, encourage or help it."

The United States has called on the United Nations to suspend Russia in connection with the killings of civilians in Ukraine.

"Russia cannot remain a member of the UN Human Rights Council, given the strong evidence of war crimes, including reports of mass graves and heinous massacres in Bucha," said British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss. Russia should be suspended. "
