Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov criticised the West for telling Russia how it should behave, speaking at a joint press conference with his Brazilian counterpart Carlos Franca in Moscow on Wednesday.

“No matter what we do in our own territory, the West feels entitled to tell us how we should behave. Well, this is an elementary lack of education,” the minister stated.

Lavrov added that Moscow is surprised by the ongoing hysteria in the West about Russia’s “invasion” of Ukraine.

“Of course, we are not amused, but we are deeply perplexed,” he said.

TRANSCRIPT:

SOT, Sergei Lavrov, Russian Foreign Minister (Russian): “As for your observation of the continuing hysteria, of course we are not amused, but we are deeply perplexed”.

SOT, Sergei Lavrov, Russian Foreign Minister (Russian): “No matter what we do in our own territory, the West feels entitled to tell us how we should behave. Well, this is an elementary lack of education. This can be seen in the latest calls: ‘Let’s check what Russia is doing. They announced it, but we do not believe it. We will have an opportunity to verify from satellites.’ Constant threats: ‘Just think about invading Ukraine, we’ll announce sanctions like the world has never seen.’ Yesterday, Johnson had a conversation with von der Leyen, which resulted in the announcement that Britain and the European Union had decided to act in unity to punish Russia when they deem it necessary.”
