MPs boycotting OSCE PA session: we will not be part of Russia’s game

Lithuanian MPs say they have been making every effort to prevent the participation of a Russian delegation in the upcoming winter session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) in Vienna.

The Lithuanian delegation’s request was not taken into account, the MPs said in a press conference Wednesday, a day after they had announced a boycott of the OSCE PA session in protest against Russia’s participation.
