MUNICH, February 5 (RIA Novosti) - The Russian defense minister said Sunday that the international community should eliminate loopholes in international anti-terrorist legislation and overcome "double standards" in this sphere.
Sergei Ivanov who is also Russia's deputy prime minister spoke at the 42nd international conference on security in Munich.
"Today as never before there is an urgent need for this world organization [UN] to find solutions of two principal and interrelated problems. The first one is to liquidate loopholes in international law and national legislation, which allow terrorists and their allies to elude responsibility. The second is to overcome "double standards" in evaluating terrorist threat in respect of terrorists themselves," Ivanov said.
