Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, aged 73, delivered a chilling message, predicting the decline of the US and UK’s global dominance. Speaking on a Qatar news channel, Lavrov compared the situation to historic conflicts and asserted that Russia, now as strong as ever, would emerge even more powerful after the current war.
Lavrov emphasized that it was the Ukrainians’ responsibility to recognize their situation, blaming the US for the conflict. When questioned about a ceasefire, he redirected the inquiry to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, citing a previous decree prohibiting negotiations with Vladimir Putin.
As Vladimir Putin prepares for a reelection bid, Lavrov’s icy warning underscores Russia’s belief in increased strength following the invasion. Lavrov’s historical parallels to Napoleon and Hitler’s defeats suggested Russia’s resilience in the face of external aggression.
