Radosław Sikorski gave a speech at the 31st OSCE Ministerial Council, held in Malta on 5-6 December aiming Russian policy.
Skorski: "Minister Borg, colleagues, Elina has just uh reminded us the origin of the origins of this organization the Helsinki process was basically a grand bargain between the then communist block which sought the confirmation of borders in Europe and the then West which wanted respect for human rights in the Soviet block. Today Russia respects neither borders nor human rights. There are no free media in Russia, there are no honest elections and there are more political prisoners there than in the Soviet Union under Leonid bnv at the time of Helsinki. When the Soviet Union collapsed we encouraged Russia to become a normal Democratic nation state but they failed it proved too difficult to emerge from their own political culture. Russia's rulers chose the path of aggressive, repressive, kleptocracy. My message to the Russian delegation is the following: we are not taken in by your lies, we know what you're doing you're trying to rebuild the Russian Empire and we will not let you. We will resist you every inch of of the way you are successful in destroying Ukraine but you're also destroying the future of your own country. Until you stop this brutal War you shouldn't be here".
