The West should the Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov build military bases in any former Soviet republic. It is also unacceptable that US nuclear weapons are stationed in some European countriesRussian news agencies quote Lavrov. Russia will take measures to prevent Ukraine from acquiring such weapons. The danger exists, says Lavrov in a pre-recorded speech at a disarmament conference in Geneva. “Ukraine still possesses Soviet-era technology and has the means to acquire such weapons.”
Lavrov also said the EU’s decision to supply Ukraine with lethal weapons was in one “anti-Russian frenzy” been hit. Referring to the negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, Lavrov added: “I hope that the Ukrainian side will recognize the seriousness of the situation and their responsibility.” The arrogant philosophy of the West must end.
