This is reported by The Independent.

According to the department, such changes have occurred because of how Britain was subjected to a humiliating blow to her diplomatic prestige last week. First of all, this happened at a time when, after five rounds of simultaneous voting by the Security Council and the General Assembly in New York, four judges from Brazil, Lebanon, France and Somalia were selected before the British candidate Christopher Greenwood.

In addition, for the last place in court, Great Britain had to compete with India in the second round of voting on Monday evening.



According to British Ambassador Matthew Ricroft, Britain has come to the conclusion that it is wrong to continue to take the precious time of the Security Council and the UN General Assembly for the next election.

"We are naturally disappointed, but it was a competition with six strong candidates," he added..

Recall, as previously reported, "URA-Inform," the government of the Great Britain after leaving the European Union plans in the future to develop a plan for each situation on Brexit. Such a statement was made by the British Minister David Davis.
