”We ask for the cessation of sanctions and the inhumane economic embargo”, extending the request also for Cuba to be “freed from the embargo”. Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said this while speaking at the United Nations General Assembly. The United States must abandon “policies of economic suffocation”. Lavrov then cited the “sanctions on Syria, which have endangered development”, adding that “all these measures are used as weapons by Western powers ”.

“Moscow does not steal children”
Russia ”does not steal children” from Ukraine, ”their relatives can come and take them whenever they want, no one stops them”, he says, accusing ”the West of building an empire of lies”. The head of Russian diplomacy added that Moscow ”does not hide the names and locations of Ukrainian children in Russia due to the conflict”.
The alliance with China
The United States is trying to conclude military alliances against China and Russia but, he warns, ”the partnership between Beijing and Moscow has strengthened”. ”Increasingly aggressive policies on the part of the West lead to a fragmentation of the world into many hostile blocs” which ”do not want to negotiate to make the rest of the world and the process by which decisions are made more fair”. ”Development must no longer depend on colonial powers”, concluded Lavrov, maintaining that ”developing countries are ready to negotiate”.
The negotiations
The ”peace formula” developed by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for the resolution of the crisis in Ukraine, says Lavrov, is ”absolutely unachievable and everyone knows it”. ”The West is trying to resolve conflicts in other areas with its own rules, for example in the Middle East,’ he adds. The Palestinians have been waiting for years for what they were promised, but the Americans are monopolizing the mediation process”. ”I ask all responsible countries to ensure that the conditions for this negotiation are in place – he added -. The states of the Arab League are returning to negotiations and we are very happy about this”.
La pace a Nagorno
