Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Thursday said the West’s decision to invade Ukraine reflects its reaction to the long-awaited war, which is why it armed the Ukrainian government.
“This invasion (of Ukraine as per the West) reflects the reaction to the war the West was preparing for many years and that is why it was arming the Ukrainian regime,” said Lavrov in Delhi.
“It is in the UN charter that every state must adhere to the sovereignty & territorial integrity of any other state,” he added.
Russia’s claim that the West was engaging in “blackmail and threats” against other nations threw a wrench in the G20 meeting that took place in New Delhi on Thursday.
“Addressing G20 meet today, PM Modi, presented a balanced & responsible position. He was not just speaking about some isolated individual situation because the West is trying to divide geopolitical picture. Mr Modi gave assessment of situation across globe,” Lavrov said.
“Some of them (nations) under pressure say certain things or vote in a certain manner to relieve themesleves from US pressure but almost no developing country, almost none of them, joined sanctions under Russia because they are aware what kind of game West is playing,” he added.
Lavrov also spoke on the relations of Russia with India and said India is taking on key global agendas.
“Russia’s relationship with India is described as a ‘priviledge strategic partnership’. This reflects the special character of the relationship. We appreciate the responsible stand India is taking on key global agendas”
India had hoped that its G20 presidency this year would focus on poverty alleviation and climate finance, but Russia’s conflict with Ukraine has prevented other agenda items from being discussed.
For the first time since July, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov met in the same room in New Delhi. However, it was unlikely that they would talk.
