Russia, Sergey Lavrov | Lavrov: – The European Union allowed itself to be dictated to by the US

Lavrov started the press conference by denying that the world economic downturn was caused by the conflict in Ukraine. He said, however, that responsibility lay with the United States and its allies.

Lavrov also said that the conflict in Ukraine is America’s war against Russia, and the United States wants a hybrid war with Russia. He said that the conflict in Ukraine began long before the Russian special operations. He claimed that Russia is ready to discuss a solution to the conflict, but so far this has not been possible.

– There is absolutely no point in discussing only Ukraine with the West, he said and accused Western countries of trying to weaken Russia by sending more weapons to Ukraine.

– The US, with Ukraine as its representative, has started a war against our country with the same goal: the final solution to the Russian problem, said Lavrov.

Lavrov believes the US is seeking to strengthen its position in the world, not only at the expense of Russia, but also at the expense of countries in Africa and Latin America, among others. He believed that the EU had submitted to the US, and allowed itself to be ruled by the US.

Lavrov spent a lot of time saying that the US does not promote democracy and freedom in the world, but uses tyrannical methods to force countries to follow the US. While the West claims that Russia is trying to increase control by taking Ukraine, Lavrov draws parallels between the current conflict in Ukraine, and previous conflicts between Russia and Hitler and Napoleon.

– Just as Hitler wanted a final solution to the Jewish question, now if you read Western politicians, they clearly say that Russia must suffer a strategic defeat, he said.

Lavrov describes Russia as a country with many different cultures and religions, where no one is oppressed. He also said that other countries are also not being oppressed by Russia, unlike many countries which are being oppressed by the United States.

The press conference took place a day after Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov delivered an ultimatum to Ukraine. He later said that Ukraine must accept Moscow’s proposal or the Russian army will decide the outcome.

– Our proposals for the demilitarization and de-Nazification of the territories controlled by the regime, and the elimination of threats to Russia’s security emanating from them, including from our new territories, are well known to the enemy, said Lavrov.

– The bottom line is simple: It would be in their own best interest to comply with the proposal. Otherwise, the matter will be decided by the Russian army, he said.
