💬President of Russia Vladimir #Putin:
🔹Those in power in the #West do not care who to bet on in the fight against Russia.
🔹The West is using #Ukraine both as a battering ram against Russia & as a firing range.
❗️ The more long-range Western systems come to Ukraine, the further away we will be forced to push the threat from our borders.

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey #Lavrov’s remarks at a plenary meeting of the #G20 Ministerial Council on multilateralism, global economy and development (New Delhi, March 2, 2023):
💬 We stand in solidarity with New Delhi’s call to build a common future for humanity, which is especially important in the context of growing geopolitical confrontation. We share the practical objectives of strengthening multilateralism and overcoming global economic crises set during India’s Presidency.
❗️ I would like to apologise to the Presidency and our colleagues from the Global South for the improper behaviour of a number of Western delegations, which turned the discussion on the G20 agenda into a travesty in an attempt to shift their responsibility for failures in economic policy to others, primarily Russia. It’s kind of funny that the representatives of the countries whose leaders admitted that they have been sabotaging the UN Security Council resolution and flooding #Ukraine with weapons for war against Russia since 2015 were trying so hard.
The aggressive #Russophobia appears particularly outrageous given that the G20 Western members have never grieved at the G20 meetings over the many hundreds of thousands of lives lost in Washington’s reckless adventures in the Middle East under the pretext of national security threats that came from places 10,000 miles away from the US borders.
☝️We see no alternative to the sole legitimate international order that is embodied in the #UNCharter’s basic principles.
⛔️ It’s time to stop playing the food card. Today, the bulk of grain supplies from Ukraine are being shipped at giveaway fodder prices to the EU, rather than to the poorest countries that need them. Without any scruples, the #West is burying the UN Secretary-General’s well-known humanitarian initiative.
🤝 We will continue to make a major contribution to ensuring economic stability. We are open to an equitable dialogue at the G20. We hope that the Delhi summit in September will at least mitigate the risks created by the self-serving Western policies.

🎙Excerpts from 🇷🇺Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's statement and answers to media questions during a news conference on 🇷🇺Russia’s foreign policy performance in 2023:
💬We will continue to promote the ideals of truth and justice in international affairs. <...>
In this sense, our Ministry strongly supports United Russia’s initiative to hold in Moscow an international inter-party forum of supporters of combating the modern practices of neo-colonialism. It is a popular theme given that the neocolonialist nature of Western policy is present in a big way in the current policies pursued by the 🇺🇸United States and its allies. Its thrust remains the same – to use the resources of other countries to their benefit and to live off of others.
❗️The upcoming forum promises to be an engaging and important event.
