 Russia is disappointed with the US rejecting the resolution against racism adopted by the UN's General Assembly's committee, Russia's Foreign Ministry said in a statement Friday. The resolution, which was approved in New York on the initiative of Russia, in particular condemns the glorification of Nazi movement and former Waffen-SS members. US' delegation was the only delegation, which voted against the document. 124 states voted for the resolution and 55 states abstained.
