WNAM REPORT: Russia will be able to defend peace based on the legal results of WWII, despite ill-wishers’ intrigues or the rise of neocolonialism, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said in a video address on the occasion of Russian Diplomats Day.
“Today, when Russia is once again faced with crucial challenges, its primary task and sacred duty is to defend peace based on the legal results of World War II,” Russia’s top diplomat said in the video message released on the Russian Foreign Ministry’s website. He expressed confidence that “this noble goal will be achieved, despite all the efforts of our ill-wishers and open enemies to falsify historical facts, revive Nazism and militarism, and curtail international dialogue and cooperation in suppressing Russia and other rivals for the sake of domination through force and neocolonialism.”
According to Lavrov, Russia “will continue to do everything necessary to protect national interests in the context of foreign policy support for the special military operation and efforts to create safer and more favorable conditions for the country’s development and the improvement of our citizens’ well-being.” He emphasized that Russia will “boost multifaceted cooperation with all sensible partners and, above all, with the global majority,” as he referred to former Soviet republics, Greater Eurasia, as well as African and Latin American countries.
Also, Russia will contribute to “strengthening the foundations of multipolarity, creating a comprehensive security architecture across Eurasia and establishing mechanisms of international cooperation that are not subject to the destructive influence of the Western minority,” the foreign minister stated.
