Irish journalist Chay Bose called Sergey Lavrov's statement that the West had declared war on Russia ominous. He expressed his opinion on the social network X.
"Ominous words from a man with 50 years of diplomatic experience. We live in dangerous times," Bose writes.
The day before, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, at a meeting with the heads of Russian non-profit organizations, said that Western countries had declared war on Russia.
As reported by EADaily, Western countries declared war on Russia, in which the Kiev regime on Ukraine is being used as a geopolitical battering ram, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said.
"At some point in our history, after the creation of the UN, the OSCE and after the disappearance of the Soviet Union, the prospects for coexistence and even cooperation with the West seemed very realistic to us. All this has gone into oblivion. An open war has been declared on us," the minister stated.
