Lavrov stated the reason for the war against Russia was organized by the West.
According to the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry, today the economy is becoming more and more a scene of conflicts. Following "hot" military conflicts, trade conflicts are launched to suppress geopolitical competitors.
"This is exactly the reason for the war against Russia organized by the West at the hands of the Kiev regime, which was brought to power illegally as a result of a coup in 2014," said Sergey Lavrov.
