According to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, the US is putting pressure on China, Turkey, and a number of other countries due to their cooperation with Russia.

“It’s just the rudeness that is erupting from Washington, I don’t know, it’s beyond,” Lavrov said, commenting on US actions against other countries in a TV interview.

“It is even more striking that this kind of blackmail is used against such ancient civilisations as China, India, Egypt, the demands were made on the same Turks,” he said.

“This is a fateful moment, this is an epochal moment in modern history, because it reflects the ‘battle’ in the broadest sense of the word for how the world order will look,” he said in an interview with RBC TV channel.

In response to a question about why the Ukraine issue could not be resolved peacefully, Lavrov stated that the West did not want to resolve the situation peacefully.
