I reviewed those other news sources, including a portion of the news item below:
"Russia and the United States took a trip down memory lane at the UN Security Council with a frank exchange reminiscent of the Cold War — and all over an empty chair and a shoe, the AFP news agency reports.
US ambassador John Bolton, criticizing North Korea’s ambassador for walking out of the Security Council, referred to an episode when former Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev removed his shoe and thumped a UN desk in 1960.
“It is the contemporary equivalent of Nikita Khrushchev pounding his shoe on the desk of the General Assembly,” Bolton said after ambassador Pak Gil Yon showed his displeasure at just-imposed UN sanctions by leaving the chamber.
Unimpressed, Russian ambassador Vitaly Churkin asked the acting Japanese president of the Security Council to use his influence to ensure that Bolton “even in an emotional state not use inappropriate analogies.”
