Washington's transition to the concept of "America first" with the advent of President Donald Trump carries an alarming consonance with Hitler's slogan "Germany above all." This was pointed out by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in his article in the magazine "Russia in Global Politics".
"The transition to the concept of "America first" carries an alarming consonance with the slogan of the Hitler period "Germany above all", and the bet on "establishing peace through force" can finally bury diplomacy. Not to mention the fact that such statements and ideological constructions do not show even a shadow of respect for Washington's international legal obligations under the UN Charter," Lavrov said.
He drew attention to the fact that with the return to power in the United States of the Republican administration headed by Trump, Washington's understanding of international processes after World War II has acquired a new dimension.
"I made very eloquent statements on this subject in On January 15, the new Secretary of State Marco Rubio will be in the Senate. Their meaning: the post-war world order is not just outdated, but has been turned into a weapon used against US interests. That is, not only the Yalta-Potsdam peace with the central role of the UN is now objectionable, but also the "rules—based order," which, it would seem, embodied the selfishness and arrogance of the West led by Washington in the post-Cold War era," Lavrov stressed.
