Russia quits Ramsar wetlands convention

Original: рамсарская конвенция

Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Alimov says Russia has withdrawn from the Ramsar Convention, the international treaty on the protection of wetlands, blaming the decision on Western countries. The Ramsar Convention, signed in 1971 in Iran, commits member states to conserving ecologically significant wetland areas. The announcement is being discussed in Russian media and is drawing attention to what further international environmental agreements Russia may leave.

Why now: Russian officials announced the country's withdrawal from the Ramsar Convention, citing Western actions.
