[Regnum] Russia's request for a list of those killed in Bucha in the spring of 2022 was received by the United Nations (UN). This was stated on January 25 by the official representative of the Secretary General of the world organization, Stephane Dujarric, during a briefing, TASS reports.

“We received this request,” Dujarric said.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov indicated at a meeting of the UN Security Council on January 22 that the world organization has not yet provided a list of those killed in Bucha, despite repeated requests from the Russian side.

Earlier, IA Regnum reported that, as Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in December 2023, the refusal of relevant international organizations to provide Russia with a list of those killed in Bucha suggests that it was a staging carried out by Ukraine at the direction of Great Britain and the United States.

In June 2023, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov doubted that the West was conducting an investigation into the incident in Bucha. He noted that he constantly reminds UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres of the importance of clarifying the situation, but receives no response.

Until the end of March 2022, the city of Bucha, located near Kiev, was under the control of the Russian military. After their withdrawal, Ukrainian and Western media published photos and videos taken in Bucha, which allegedly showed numerous corpses of civilians. Kyiv accused Moscow of a war crime.

In April 2022, the Chairman of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, Alexander Bastrykin, announced the initiation of a criminal case after the Ukrainian provocation in the city of Bucha under the article on the public dissemination of deliberately false information about the use of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.
