VIDEO ⟩ Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov is mocked during a conference in India

“The war against us was started using the Ukrainian people, we are trying to stop it,” Lavrov said. After this announcement, the audience started laughing loudly and clapping.

Despite the incessant laughter, Lavrov emphasized that he considers the questions asked by the conference participants about the war to be “double standards”.

“In those years, were you interested in what was happening in Iraq, what was happening in Afghanistan?” he asked one of the conference participants. “Why don’t you ask the United States any questions?” summed up Lavrov.

The “Raisina Dialogue” conference is attended by scientists, diplomats and senior business leaders from all over the world, according to “The Washington Post”.
