The United States has surrounded Russia with its military bases and is constantly causing hysteria on Russia’s borders, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said at an annual conference on public diplomacy entitled “Dialogue in the Name of the Future.”
“The fact that we are being accused of carrying out exercises carried out by the Russian armed forces on their own sovereign territory, those countries which are gathering on our borders, among other things, troops and wars in huge numbers on the other side of the ocean, and the fact that The US has surrounded us on all sides with its military bases, these are already facts that probably every student knows. “Nevertheless, this hysteria is constantly growing,” the Russian minister said, responding to numerous criticisms against Russia over the movements of Russian troops on the border with Ukraine and the Black Sea.
“The West’s attempt to maintain its hegemony by any means runs counter to the objective course of history, because there are China, India, Brazil, there are centers of development in Africa and in Latin America and Asia. “A multipolar world order is being formed, where there will be several centers of economic development, of political influence,” Lavrov said, adding that his country is in favor of seeking agreements and compromise decisions.
The Russian Foreign Minister also criticized the new AUKUS agreement between the USA, Britain and Australia, considering that in the Asia-Pacific region “where until recently the positive, constructive, unifying tendencies, the tendencies of seeking consensus and compromise are openly introduced schemes to deter some countries from other countries “.
In fact, Lavrov referred to Russia’s alliances with Asian countries, former Soviet republics, within the BRICS, but also the “troika” Russia, India, China (RIC), which “retains its importance” and in recent The tripartite meeting adopted an extensive joint statement, in which the three countries are “in favor of the democratization of international relations”.
