"Washington's anti-Russian campaign that is already a household name, has assumed an unprecedented scope," Lavrov said. "Its aim is to once again try to turn Russia into a country under its control. Such attempts are doomed to failure. Isolating Russia, making it sacrifice its principles, and solving their problems at our expense are not going to work," he said.
The Russian diplomat said the West, "worried by the loss of its influence, is desperate to maintain its hegemony and hinder the objective process of the shaping of a new polycentric world order, restrain the development of new world centers, including Russia."
He emphasized that Russia had repeatedly faced outside challenges in its history, "which it was overcoming successfully with an active role of the Russian diplomatic service". "It will stay this way," the minister pledged.
Comment: The belligerent US leaders continue to try every move they can to contain Russia but Russia ploughs on with it's vision of a mutually beneficial multi-polar world, and in the process exposes the psychopathic US establishment for what it is. Those who will ultimately suffer the worst are the American people:
- US wants $1 trillion upgrade of its nuclear arsenal because of perceived 'Russian threat' to European allies
- Pakistan to purchase weapons from China and Russia after Trump suspends military aid to Islamabad
- Russia's hi-speed rail boom: Manufactured locally and set to traverse the world (VIDEO)
- How to make real history: China and Russia transforming enemies into friends
- Russian military technology: More bang for the buck
