They didn't. Learn to read. They sup****ted the text.

Why don't you mount a full-throated defense of little defenseless
Myanmar/Burma, Karlamov?

"The UN reacted furiously last night to Burma's military government
confiscating food aid intended for more than a million victims of last
week's cyclone. Two planeloads were impounded by the junta, prompting
a tem****ary suspension in deliveries. UN flights were resumed last
night, in the hope that negotiations would lead to a resolution.

"Gordon Brown called the Burmese action 'utterly unacceptable'. He
stopped short of joining France and the US in calling for aid
deliveries without Burmese permission, although pressure within his
government for such a move is growing."

If it comes down to providing aid without the consent of the junta --
will anybody be surprised if Russia speaks up for its Burmese friends?
"Internal matter" time, I bet.
