MOSCOW, December 13 - RIA Novosti.
The US media and major non-governmental organizations are silent about a major US crude oil spill, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova wrote on Telegram.
"Have you heard anything about the US-Canadian Keystone Pipeline? <…And the fact that one of the largest environmental disasters of the decade has recently occurred on the border of the US states of Kansas and Nebraska? <…> In the very center of the American of the continent, literally rivers of crude oil flow right through the farms and local reservoirs due to the spill," the diplomat said.
According to her, the American media report about the accident in a dosed manner, since it is "unprofitable for the green agenda."
"By the way, large environmental NGOs and their affiliates in the US and Canada (Greenpeace USA, Greenpeace Canada, Nature Conservancy Canada, WWF, EDF, EICES, FFI, Global Green, IUCN, Birdlife International) are also silent," Zakharova stressed.

In Poland, they reported a leak at the Druzhba oil pipeline. The representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs specified that she would like to see "revealing articles" from CNN, which is active in covering events in other countries.
"How can such a catastrophe happen under Democrats, known for their environmental bias? <…Ecology is ecology, and politics is on schedule," she added.
As Reuters reported, last Friday there was a large-scale leak at the major Keystone oil pipeline. As a result, more than 14,000 barrels of crude fell into a stream in the US state of Kansas. According to the agency, this is the largest oil spill in the country in almost a decade.
Keystone is a pipeline system with a length of more than four thousand kilometers, which plays an important role in the supply of oil from Canada to the United States.
