  ".org-right" is an internal CSS class for table alignment.
  
  OTOH, "#+begin_right" starts a special block that, as expected, create
  a "right" div.
  
  So, there is no issue here. You can either define "right" CSS, or
  (untested), try "#+begin_org-right".

    Thank you for a response, #+begin_org-right block indeed works like a charm.
    
    Now, I am not sure, whether am I supposed to use #+begin_org-center blocks instead of #+begin_center too.
    
    In fact, given that #+begin_center creates a .org-center div block, that is centred by default CSS (and stylesheets of other formats), I found your answer absolutely surprising.
    
    I would be probably not alone on this feeling; see, for instance, Fabrice Niessen’s Org mode syntax reference card [0], where (as far as I got it) #+begin_right is presented as alignment tag for paragraphs rather than tables:
    
    --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
    Centered text
    
    #+begin_left
    This text is \\
    aligned to the left!
    #+end_left
    
    #+begin_center
    This text is \\
    centered!
    #+end_center
    
    #+begin_right
    This text is \\
    aligned to the right!
    #+end_right
    --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
    
    In a part for centring it is in accordance to (info "(org) Paragraphs"), which says:
    
    --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
       If you would like to center some text, do it like this:
         #+BEGIN_CENTER
         Everything should be made as simple as possible, \\
         but not any simpler
         #+END_CENTER
    --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

      The latter. As I explained, ".org-center" is an internal style.
      
      > In fact, given that #+begin_center creates a .org-center div block,
      > that is centred by default CSS (and stylesheets of other formats),

      "Center" blocks are defined in the manual, along with their syntax.
      There is nothing surprising.
      
      Moreover, there is no such thing as a "Right" block. Or, more precisely,
      this falls into the special block category, which is handled differently
      in each export back-end.

      This reference card is not an official reference card.
      
      In any case, let me insist again on the following point: you can use
      "#+begin_right" in HTML to your heart's content if you define the
      appropriate CSS property.

        Yes, I fully realize that.
        
        Just another unofficial reference card [0], by Caio Rordrigues at that time, that again states that:
        
        --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
        #+begin_right
        This text is
        aligned to the right!
        #+end_right
        --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
        
        These persons are probably consider themselves highly familiar with Org, yet they have been mistaken.  What to say about novices!  So the absence of this feature is indeed highly unobvious.  That’s the only point I am trying to make.

        If there is no plan to make into default as with centring, a warning might be very apt.
        
        Thank you again for your work on the Org.

          The issue here is that "#+begin_right" is perfectly valid syntax, and so
          is, e.g., "#+begin_foobar". Their behaviour is perfectly defined. For
          example, in HTML export the will create <div class="right"> and <div
          class="foobar"> if you have a nil `org-html-html5-fancy', or <right> and
          <foobar> otherwise.
          
          Therefore, a warning is not an option here. Only a careful read of the
          manual can help clearing the misconception about what is included in Org
          and what can be extended.
          
          Now, it's true that at some point, Org defined a ".right" CSS rule
          instead of ".org-right", so "#+begin_right" could work out of the box, but
          only in the HTML export. However, this was not the intent.
          
          For the record any "#+begin_XXX" construct that has no particular
          meaning in Org may be treated specially by export back-ends (or ignored
          altogether). It is often a way to write a specific environment.
