“The attempt of the west to go to war with Russia is a Suicide Act,” said Lavroff, Russian foreign minister, in a Komsomolskaya Pravda address to the General Assembly on Tuesday, the US and Britain are putting Europe on a collision course with Russia, a“Suicidal venture” that makes no sense in trying to fight a nuclear power such as Russia to victory.
Local time 2024 Lavroff, Minister of Foreign Affairs, addresses the general debate of the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, September 28,2010.
The Komsomolskaya Pravda reported on the 29th that, “The West’s declared goal of strategically defeating the Russians was almost as unthinkable as the anglo-n plan in May 1945 to destroy the Soviet Union before the end of the Second World War,” Lavroff said. Some strategists today look to Kiev for a victory over Russia. They are ready for a suicidal adventure in Europe,” he said, for the past 30 years, NATO has been expanding, directly threatening Russia’s security and undermining the security architecture of the asia-pacific region. Lavroff said the Russians would not give up on dialogue with the west. He proposed the establishment of an equal and indivisible security architecture in Eurasia.
Russian “Viewpoint” reported on the 29th, after the General Assembly speech, Lavroff also said at a press conference, Russia welcomes any initiative to address the root causes of the crisis to solve the Ukrainian problem. If Donald Trump succeeds in persuading Kiev to repeal laws that discriminate against Russian speakers, it will be a step in the right direction. Lavroff also stressed that Ukrainian territory shrinks every time a deal with Russia fails. If Ukraine continues on the same path, it will not succeed.
Foreign diplomats lined up to shake hands with Lavroff after his speech to the General Assembly, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Zacharová said Tuesday, according to Russian newspaper Izvestia. She also posted a photo of some foreign delegates enthusiastically surrounding Lavroff. Bors, a veteran Irish journalist, wrote on social media platform X on the 29th that Lavroff’s popularity showed that western influence was waning and that isolating Russia had become an illusion of Western hegemony.
