The future lies in the democratization of international economic relations. ".
The Russian Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov, expressed his views on the global economy and its relationship to international security in an article for "Kommersant".
"A few days ago, a meeting of foreign ministers from the G20 countries was held in the US. The topics discussed included the global economy and its relationship with international security. In my speech at this yeshiva I expressed opinions that I would like to share with a wider audience. ".
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov criticized the European Union in an article for "Kommersant" about its actions regarding foreign ships:
"The European Union, which has turned itself into a military bloc (and clearly suffers from delusions of grandeur), remembers the times of slavery and piracy, and began with the blatant seizure of foreign ships and the theft of refreshments."
The minister wrote.
According to him, the terms "shadow fleet" and "so-called price ceilings" were invented to justify robbery. "The markets are in turmoil due to such geopolitical promiscuity," noted Mr. Lavrov.
Operations aimed at seizing ships will be met with a mutual response.
As Mr. Lavrov pointed out, freedom of navigation "must be guaranteed everywhere, in all countries and in all maritime areas. ".
"It should be understood that actions based on power - especially by weakening power - policies of pressure, blackmail and dictation are doomed and will receive a reciprocal and asymmetrical response."
The minister wrote.
