Lavrov: US seeks to apply melting-pot practice to EU, other regions

Moscow – The US is applying the melting-pot theory and practice to Europe and other regions of the world, making them follow the rules of the Golden Billion, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Saturday.

“The melting-pot theory and practice are being applied to other Western countries. It can be seen in Europe, which is being melted to take a subordinate political position to Washington. The melting-pot philosophy is also being applied to other regions of the world, where everyone is being forced to live by the rules of the Golden Billion,” he pointed out at the 31st Assembly of the Council for Foreign and Defense Policy.

“This high-handedness and obsession with their one’s superiority are certainly leading international relations into a very difficult situation,” Lavrov noted. According to him, the EU has become completely dependent on the United States.

Decisions of G7 Hiroshima summit aimed at containing both Russia and China

Lavrov also said that the decisions adopted at the G7 summit in Hiroshima pursue the goal of dual containment of Russia and China.

“Could you take a look at those decisions which are being debated and adopted at the G7 summit in Hiroshima and which are aimed at dual containment of Russia and the People’s Republic of China?” he said.

Lavrov pointed out that the Western track has “completely outlived itself” in the form it had been developing in the Russian foreign policy until recently, as Russia embarked on the path “of most dramatic confrontation with the aggressive bloc comprising the Unites States, the European Union and the North Atlantic Alliance.”

“The objective was announced loudly and frankly, which is to defeat Russia on the battlefield, and without stopping at this, to eliminate it later as a geopolitical rival, so to speak, along with any other country that claims an independent place in the world, they will be suppressed as opponents,” the minister added.

The top diplomat also pointed out that the Western countries’ expert community is overtly discussing the order to work out scenarios aimed at Russia’s breakup, and “they do not conceal that the existence of Russia as an independent center is incompatible with the goal of the West’s global domination.”
