Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, Washington and NATO of trying to control the Asia Pacific region through the approach of militarization and fueling conflicts.
“The alliance claims to play the pioneering role in the Asia and the Pacific region, but its policies show the exact opposite,” according to Russia today.
He explained that NATO was a defensive alliance when the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Treaty were standing, but after 1990 and Russia preoccupied with its internal crises, there is no longer a rewarding force, so he was looking to expand the extent of its defensive lines gradually until he was about to approach Russia, and he reached the last of the Madrid summit to announce his responsibility Completely for the security of Europe, the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian and Pacific Ocean, and the Sea of China, and that it does not accept the sharing of this responsibility with any other party, claiming that it played entrepreneurial roles.
Lavrov drew attention to Washington’s efforts to the Asia -Pacific region by concerting its efforts with its allies in Australia, New Zealand and Japan, with the aim of expanding the borders of NATO, without taking into account the interests of other countries, and stressed the compatibility of Moscow and Beijing’s position in this regard..
