“As the attempts of interference can be considered and the initiative to establish the international Tribunal on the case about the crash of Malaysian “Boeing” in the Donbass. Started for political purposes, an investigation of the International criminal court on the events of 2008 in South Ossetia, invalidating the reunification of the Crimea with Russia made it impossible for the country’s participation in the Rome Statute of the ICC,” – said Matvienko.

She stated that “the principled position of Russia not to interfere in the Affairs of others by”, but not allow others to interfere in the Affairs of Russia and its allies.
