People lined up to shake hands with Lavrov after his speech at the UN General Assembly
The queue that lined up for Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov after his speech at the UN indicates that the Russian Federation failed to isolate, according to the West. Irish journalist Chey Bowes responded to the situation.
On September 28, Lavrov took part in the 79th session of the UN General Assembly. Having finished his speech at the general debate, the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry went to a press conference. The official representative of the Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, later published a photo showing how a line of people had gathered to shake Lavrov’s hand.
“Isolated Russia”. Another fantasy of weakened Western hegemony
Lavrov from the UN rostrum declared the senselessness of war with a nuclear power
The minister drew attention to the fact that the goal of inflicting strategic defeat on Russia has been announced. At the same time, he emphasized that the idea of “fighting to victory” with a nuclear power is meaningless. Lavrov noted that Western countries “do not hide their plans,” hoping to defeat Russia at the hands of Ukraine. They also want to involve Europe in this crazy adventure, the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry indicated.
At the same time, Lavrov indicated that Moscow is not building up its nuclear arsenal, guided by the maximum levels established by the Strategic Offensive Arms Treaty (START). Russia has suspended participation in the treaty, but intends to comply with the levels and exchange certain types of information with the United States. “At least for now this agreement is in force,” Lavrov said. answering to a question from Kommersant.
In Europe they spoke about the consequences of an attempt to isolate Russia
As Foreign Minister and former Prime Minister of Luxembourg Xavier Bettel noted, the attempt to isolate Russia has created a bipolar situation in the world. “It was not possible to change Russia from within with the help of sanctions, as we expected,” he stated.
According to the politician, now there is a situation where “you are either for Russia or against it.” At the same time, Russia and the United States do not want other countries to try to take an intermediate position in such a situation, Bettel said.
President Vladimir Putin also said that all Western attempts to contain and isolate Russia have failed. “We continue to confidently increase our economic potential, develop industry, technology, infrastructure, science, education, and culture,” the head of state noted.
