Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has a simple, but beautiful idea: Let’s not allow insane war hawks to drag the world into open conflict.
Speaking at the Sixth Moscow Conference on International Security on Wednesday, Lavrov reminded the audience that “the entire world history shows that wars are not unleashed by generals but by politicians”.
He also warned that “war hawks” are attempting to provoke escalation in Ukraine.
Lavrov commented on the worrying situations in Ukraine, the Korean Peninsula, and Syria. He finished his remarks by stating unequivocally that “Russia, jointly with its partners and like-minded countries, will continue to assert solid principles in global affairs and to form the entire new global governance system reflecting the 21st century imperatives. We are ready to work together, jointly search for various options to overcome our challenges on the basis of equality, mutual respect and consideration for each other’s interests. We urge all our partners to do this.”
